I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

Thanks again for the awesome reviews, guys! I was talking to my lcs guy last week about Ultimates 3 and he mentioned that Jeph Loeb is going to be writing it. I like Loeb's writing a lot, but my friend has concerns that it won't be able to maintain the gritty feel that The Ultimates has had to date. The one thing I'm not too keen on, is Mad's art on the series. While I enjoy his art on the whole, I also don't like the concept art revealed so far and I think it's going to completely change the feel of The Ultimates (and not necessarily for the better), but I guess we'll have to wait and see.

No, not his history in general. I've got all that as I've been following him and reading about him going back to Reign of the Supermen. I'm speaking specifically about the scene early on in Infinite Crisis #5 with Luthor vs. the scene with Nightwing. Given the scene with Luthor, I don't know how he could have met up with Nightwing. But I think there's some info or plot line out there that I just must have missed.

I guess either of us will be able to write about that from first hand experience. But, hell, it looks like the biggest, bad@ss, most winning Avengers line up I've ever seen!

Cool reviews guys. IC #5 kicked my ass for another issue in a row. Such a satisfying storyline and you really get your money's worth per issue. Sorry to see the last page wasnt as big an impact on you since you'd seen the figure of it already. I didnt know about this figure so the moment REALLY surprised me. Coolness! I guess you dont want it but...I wish IC would go on for more issues than planned!

FYI - I talked to Jiminez at the NYC Con last weekend. Vertigo's "Other World" will be returning after Infinite Crisis. For those of us following that great book, it is what we figured, but I was able to get that confirmed.

According to a recent Newsarama interview, Jerry only penciled the Earth 2 sequences. According to the interview this was always going to be the case, as DC wanted a different look for the Earth 2 sequences in the book than the Earth 1 ... this isn't to say that PJ isn't falling behind schedule, but when you look at the detail and the total scope of this project .. I doubt it would be humanly possible for anyone to keep up this pace ... also the interview mentioned some changes that Dan Didio requested to be made just before the issue went to print which delayed it even further.

I love Book of Doom, I have the first 3 issues so far. It's one of the best titles out there.
