this was one of the best things i have read all year. cooke made me stop at three separate points to wonder why there weren't minis of him doing these characters, or ongoings (the question, king faraday, and slam himself.) then, i pretty much renounced the attractive but less than pleasing recent question mini, because in 5 or 6 pages, i gotten more satisfaction.
last year at a con in toronto, Cooke was talking about how he'd pitched a couple of concepts to DC as his post-new frontier project (really, my friend and i just happened to be standing there while he talked to Paul Rivoche, i gathered they both worked on batman beyond together) and how they'd shot down his idea for a sheild-type organisation for dc, which would explain away glaring continuity errors in the past (he never specified which), as well as taking his offer for a maxiseries of batman, and downgrading it to a year on the lowest selling batman title (i think LODK? not sure), which he turned down.
anyways, i guess the point of all that was after reading the issue, what the fuck was DC thinking? let Cooke do whatever he wants, it'll be worth it. best issue of solo so far, for my money. |
