Great looking covers. I love seeing Power girl back in the old uniform. Earth 2 and WF have been two of the better books in the NEW 52,good reading and art.
@KAC, I agree about Black Manta, he and the Joker are probably the two villains who would do just about anything to win. Other villains have a mental limit as to how far they will go to achieve what they want. While the Joker is clearly an insane homicidal psychopath, Black Manta's hatred borders on insanity.

@KryptonianAbominationClone: H'El wasn't exactly new. They said he is a re-imagining of Bizarro. Now, granted, I think they are backing off on that original statement...

Grundy looks dumb. He looked better as an actual zombie! I think the best version was from long halloween.

Not to be too nitpicky, but if those blood trails indicate motion, then Manta started out in a pretty awkard position. But Black Manta is always badass, and the revamp of Orm is one of the more successful ones in the New 52. Not a fan of the Desaad and Grundy looks, though. Looks like they're trying too hard to be all scary grimmdark. Too 90's Image-style in my opinion.

Seriously, the heroes thrown in the background like a bad photoshop look stupid.

Just showcase the villains, dammit.

Even though this is nothing but a faces of evil repeat, I'll probably get the majority of Batman decimal books, a few superman, Aquaman (of [frick]ing course, cuz i love the blonde, lame bastard), and green lantern.

all other books can be flushed down the toilet for all i care... ESPECIALLY green fagtern and his flowery ring of grass!

@KryptonianAbominationClone
Not a fan of the He'l storyline I thought it was to much of a cliche name. Felt like DBZ if it was a comic book.
