Flashpoint. is coming (Part1)

Monday, March 7, 2011 by Travis
Flashpoint Friday was...well a couple days ago, but I was busy. So now it's Flashpoint-Late-Sunday-night/Monday-morning!!

I know a number of websites have put this up but I figure I should do this as well...I'm really not sure how I am feeling about Flashpoint as of yet...a little excited, but I just caught up on a lot of these books, so a break would have been nice...oh well, breaks are for pussies...and government workers!

FLASHPOINT: BATMAN, KNIGHT OF VENGEANCE
Covers: Dave Johnson
Writer: Brian Azzarello
Art: Eduardo Risso

I think I am probably most excited for this book. A reunion of the 100 bullets (I've only read the first trade but liked what I read)team of Azzarello and Risso should bring a unique take on Batman...probably with less violence, swearing, and boobs though!




FLASHPOINT: CITIZEN COLD
Covers: Scott Kolins
Writer: Scott Kolins
Art: Scott Kolins

As I said in my review of Flash: Secret Files and Origins, Scott Kolins draws a great rogues gallery for the Flash, so it should be a perfect fit here...hopefully he can pull off writing and art duties without any delays!



FLASHPOINT: DEATHSTROKE & THE CURSE OF THE RAVAGER
Covers: Joe Bennett & John Dell
Writer: Jimmy Palmiotti
Art: Joe Bennett & John Dell
Palmiotti is regularly great and I assume this will be no different...swashbuckling + guns = a great time!




FLASHPOINT: DEADMAN & THE FLYING GRAYSONS
Covers: Cliff Chiang
Writer: JT Krul
Art: Mikel Janin

JT Krul is kind of hit-and-miss...hopefully this will be a hit as it sounds like perhaps the most interesting of the books...plus I had a look at Mikel Janin's website and it looks AMAZING!! 



FLASHPOINT: HAL JORDAN
Covers: Rags Morales
Writer: Adam Schlagman
Art: Ben Oliver

I'm not really all that excited by this one...probably will just take a look at a friend's copy if they happen to pick one up.



FLASHPOINT: WORLD OF FLASHPOINT
Covers: Shane Davis
Writer: Rex Ogle
Art: Paulo Siquiera

Not too sure what this one will be about but some people are suggesting an anthology of sorts...probably will be in the same boat as the Hal Jordan book for me...





FLASHPOINT: EMPEROR AQUAMAN
Covers: Ardian Syaf & Vicente Cifuentes
Writer: Tony Bedard
Art: Ardian Syaf & Vicente Cifuentes

I like the "idea" of Aquaman but really haven't read anything major about him as of yet...might be a good time to check the book out??



FLASHPOINT: LEGION OF DOOM
Covers: Miguel Sepulveda
Writer: Adam Glass
Art: Rodeny Buchemi & Jose Marzan
I think this has potential...I might have to wait for a head's up on whether it's good or not though...


Anyways, that is enough for now...I think I will do another post about Flashpoint sometime in the near future and probably something about "Fear Itself" as well...
