We've done an advance review and we're doing a roundtable next month.

What did YOU think of the first issue?

I liked it.

The UK doesn't get it till friday this time, stupid bank  holiday and all that.

Are you saying you haven't already read it?  ;)

She really hasn't.

It gets better from here on in.

My favourite issue is #3 and hopefully you'll all get to see why.

Not even looked at it.

It's definitely better than Infinite Crisis #1 - and therefore I'll be back for issue 2.

Attn: Geoff Johns.

This is how you do a 'big event'. That is all.

OK, sorry to get all 'internet fanboy' there but after the huge disappointment of Infinite Crisis, with its unfocused narrative, confusing plot, nonsensical events and overabundance of hype, Civil War #1 was a breath of fresh air. Despite Millar 'sploding the New Warriors, one of my favorite teams, I thoroughly enjoyed this issue. The characters spoke with believably dialogue and both sides made compelling arguments. Definately looking forward to the rest of the series.

Finally read Civil War 1, not bad though no idea who some of the folks are. And a few phrases seemed a bit repetitive. I may keep reading them if I can remember to.

I enjoyed it. I'm not normally a fan of big event cross-overs but I have faith in Millar and McNiven.
Hopefully I won't need to buy a plethora of other books to get the story.

Not that anyone around here has read it, but the mini is readable and understandable on its own.

good. That's as it should be. Thanks.

Yes, even though no one around here has read it, the mini is all you need. I certainly will not be picking up any other tie-in issues.

ALthough I did get Illumaniti *slaps self on wrist*

I bought Illuminati for Maleev.

Did he like it?

Go write roundtable comments.

I am, Jen and I just watched the episode.

Just how good was it?  :D

Absolutely fantastic.

I will fight anyone to interview Moffat.

looking forward to this, probably picking it up today . . . it's a relief to see positive noise from the advance comments . . .specially after the cluttered hit and miss nature of infinite crisis . . . :P

Heh. It's like I don't need to bother showing up sometimes.

Civil war has a very good story line:  Should supers register or not?  I believe that no one is above the law, but whats to stop some politician from using them or extort them with revealing their I.D"s and threaten family members if they don't obey.  It: kind  of tricky.  I think that supers should be trained and licenced and call upon when their's a dire situation depending on their power level, and not politicise it. :)

Superhero Registration... Who watches the Watchmen ? Does anyone remember that? Not like our Mark to tap into the past and recraft it. ;)

So the new advance review is up.  Obviously there is more in the issue, but it really does just get better from here on in.

What did people think of issue 3?

Apart from Cooper and Rockwell of course?  ;)

I liked the part where men in spandex started punching each other.
