    Maybe that's my issue; I'm not.

    I'm enjoying All-Star Batman though.
    And looking forward to the Wildstorm relaunch.


    (other than with books like "Deadpool" and "Squirrel Girl", which are silly books, without much in regards to story, no matter what anyone says!)
    I'm genuinely enjoying Squirrel Girl, and I'm not the target audience.
    I'm pretty sure Mik and Rob are too.
    What's wrong with silly? Didn't a LOT of readers spend time complaining that books were too dark and serious and not silly and fun, in the 2000's?

    I mean, it's basic super heroes. How do you make it so that one audience can't enjoy it? (Answer: Bad writing).
    But then the reverse could apply; the last seventy years of comics have at times made it so female readers, black readers, homosexual readers etc... can't enjoy comics (and no, not all). A comic you have really enjoyed has a good chance of having offended or excluded someone else.

    Just because you don't like a comic, or it isn't aimed at you, it doesn't make it bad writing.

    I personally disagree.
    There are bones breaking, internal organs, red blood...
