I thought Countdown was supposed to keep up with what's happening weekly in the DC Universe? If this were 52, the whole sequence between Adam and Mary would have taken something like five pages. As it is, I can only imagine there was lots of napping between exchanged dialogue.chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03023802756353551241noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25566450.post-65583689125171539352007-06-13T14:45:00.000-04:002007-06-13T14:45:00.000-04:00I haven't gotten Countdown today, but so far it do...I haven't gotten Countdown today, but so far it doesn't look too bad from the introduction of Black Mary. The real eye-roller will be whether they try to make Black Adam's power really EEEEEEVIL for her. It wasn't the power that made Black Adam go nuts, it was the fact that his wife and brother-in-law were murdered.<BR/><BR/>While the "Seduction of the Innocent" tagline really was poorly conceived considering the amount of sexually-charged content in comics, I think rather that Mary's going to be seduced by power and not actual sex.Lewis Lovhaughttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06724769374732321363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25566450.post-8445389152629895922007-06-13T13:59:00.000-04:002007-06-13T13:59:00.000-04:00Actually that gets me thinking, there aren't any n...Actually that gets me thinking, there aren't any notably chaste female villian characters, are there? THAT could be an interesting spin.<BR/>(And I don't think I'm projecting my own psychological issues onto this. It just seems a novel concept within modern comics.)colinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09951578369274100285noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25566450.post-86783864350465340262007-06-13T11:17:00.000-04:002007-06-13T11:17:00.000-04:00"Somehow, that sounds dirty."Well, not as dirty as..."Somehow, that sounds dirty."<BR/><BR/>Well, not as dirty as "Giant-Sized Man-Thing #1," but...Vergehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10083468076834391732noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25566450.post-13852689008350992952007-06-13T10:50:00.000-04:002007-06-13T10:50:00.000-04:00Is there anything hotter than taking a character k...<I>Is there anything hotter than taking a character known for her virginal innocence and filling her with darkness and evil?</I><BR/><BR/>Somehow, that sounds dirty.David Gallaherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01004233671388887032noreply@blogger.com
