It's a huge issue as far as I'm concerned. They need to hire editors who edit.

Or maybe he gained the knowledge when he was Monarch (not that I'm sure he ever was Monarch, in this week's continuity).<br /><br />J-Man, I've seen the upcoming covers and solicits info too, but I just don't believe DC would do away with a character who was able to support a comic for a while, and is certainly popular with audiences. While resurrecting Ted Kord would fit the 'getting the team back together' theme of this book, I feel Jaime's viewed as a worthy successor, like Rocket Red Gavril.<br /><br />Scipio, good point, 'reason' would have been better. So many people misuse 'rationalize' (he said, going to US spelling just this once) that dictionaries will likely accept the (mis)usage any year now ... certainly, UK dictionaries are awfully quick at 'keeping up to date with language change'. Yuk.<br /><br />This isn't the worst piece of garbled language in this series, mind - did you see my review of #1?Martin Grayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09574149543260175962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6392489189136721402.post-92116093661289495012011-01-28T00:08:30.921+00:002011-01-28T00:08:30.921+00:00So neither Judd nor his editor know what "rat...So neither Judd nor his editor know what "rationalize" means?

Very much hoping he comes out of this alive but it isn't looking good. <br /><br />That said, this is the best story DC has put out in 2010. Amazing writing by Winick with a fantastic pace.

(And if he's human he's got far more weaknesses than the ones he admitted to.) Of course, I don't understand how he came up with the power to do what he's done so far, even amplified.<br /><br />The DCU is so very tiny compared to ours.<br /><br />It was indeed satisfying to see Peege being given some respect, and the fight scenes were okay in that they didn't have three thousand capes fighting each other in each panel, as DC is so wont to do. This was almost a good number of folks, and they didn't take turns (iIrc) at slugging. Well, maybe a little.<br /><br />Does everyone know that Superman is "Clark"? She called Supie "Clark," and then whoever it was who was fighting her said, "Hey, she thinks she's battling Superman."<br /><br />Why is Ice dressing like a Legionnaire?Carol A.
