Brand new day sucked tho..
Read ultimate spiderman instead. Or that superhero comic.. damn cant remember the name, it's pretty much a parody of all superhero comics, a teen with a yellow suit..

Or you could like read the superhero oneshots, like Batman: The longest halloween (in b4 Deni Loeb whining)

If the only thing you can throw at it is "It doesn't match up with the past few years", then you're missing the whole point of "The past few years haven't exactly been all that great." Brand New Day is worth your time, if you want to talk about how we got here, then you're not talking about Brand New Day and you want to have a discussion about continuity patch comics which is dumb.

I did not like most of JMS writing, it just feels so lame that they undid everything that happened in that fashion.
Althought i have to admit i only read around 7 issues of brand new day, so I shouldnt have said it was bad without doing my research.

I still like Loeb though :lol:

Ultimates 3 sucked, Ultimate Power sucked, Onslaught Reborn sucked, he got kicked out of Heroes, I mean he can write, but he should write better stuff than the crap he's putting out lately. I haven't really met anyone who likes Loeb. Aside from Zip.

I didnt like ultimates v3, he tried to hard on that one.
I dont see why everyone hates on Hush, i admit that the art was a big reason i bought the comic but it's not a bad story at all. But then you guys read shitload more comics then me so maybe it doesnt stack up too well to other stories.

Get the new Joker book, really good.
