Well, I technically have a copy of the comic, since it was collected in Superman Chronicles Vol. 1. It's not the same as having the original copy, but I can still see the story if I'm interested and that's good enough for me. I've never once collected comics for their collector value.
There comes a point with a comic (or anything collectible for that matter) when it stops being the domain of the "gotta catch 'em all" personality, and starts being about "I have it and you don't and I'm never going to share," and I despise this second personality, because these are the idiots who will (supposedly--it has never been proven) buy up two of the rarest stamps in the world just so they can burn one of them to make the other one more valuable.

Ahh... the Seto Kaiba approach.
I laughed at that harder than I should have.

I would also like to say that her butt looks more like a set of balls from that angle.

Welp. Now I'm following the Hawkeye Initiative thanks to that link.
I think Karen Charlebois' critique of it was not only helpful pointing out why it was problematic and (most likely) lazy.
Land is a fucking hack, dude traces porn faces. Used to have some good artwork, too, it's pretty sad.
The second cover is just ugly as hell.

Oh look, he's used that pose like a million times, too.

For one month, all DC comics will be covered by Darwyn Cooke.
Each and every one of them are amazing. They depict a fun, happy DC universe that has been sorely lacking for a very long time - arguably even before the New 52 universe.
I'll be using several of these as desktop wallpaper.

Yes. The Teen Titans, The Flash, Green Lantern and Detective Comics, especially.
What about the content of those comics though?
I love that the Justice League Dark one emphasizes the team as the light in the darkness, instead of them being as grim as their surroundings.
"So... Bruce... you doin' anything later?"
Also, is Batman Beyond not getting a variant? Jesus, did it get canceled while I wasn't looking?
Uh-oh, David Willis wrote that issue.

Well, just open up and read any of those books with those fantastic covers on them and you will be reminded how much joy DC has sucked out of their universe.
Deadpool is the perfect character to bring back those ridiculous characters from days gone by. Maybe he'll fight US1.
I think they already had US1 show up during a Deadpool issue.
It's entirely possible. In his first issue of his original ongoing series, he fought an army of clones of horrible old dead characters, like Wizzer, Ringer, and even (the then dead) Aunt May who was boning Uncle Ben.
Blue Beetle (Ted Kord) and Booster Gold will be back in comics, this time turning up in Justice League 3000. The interesting thing to note: these are not New 52 versions of the characters. These are the original versions of them, with Justice League 3000 turning out to be set in the future of a pre-New 52 universe.
Now all we need is a Superman story based in a pre-New 52 universe and order will be restored.
Honestly, if this new 52 business just gets worse and worse, and if DC decides to just retcon it all...
...what if Blue Beetle and Booster Gold ended up being the keys to do that?
