Rot is the Soul of Death

Why this one is so late, well I couldn't find a good Shakespeare pun. (Why I'm still running on those, I don't know. But hey.) Good news the one I'm using last, I already know, I've known since I started this series. Of course, this is also earlier than the others. Since I don't have to wait till Wednesday to put out this series, because of Frankie. And that makes me happy I don't have to read it. I will read the final issue of the run since, well I'm still going to get it. I'm horribly curious. But neither here nor there. ROTWORLD Time.

Something Rotten in the State of DC!

Something Rotten in the State of DC!

What? I love my puns. These things take time and creativity. But lets look at November's Rot Books. (And end of October.) So how do our heroes do in Part two of the Rot.

Something Rotten this Way Comes

First off, that is not a Shakespeare reference, it's a Bradbury reference, which is a Shakespeare reference, so maybe the title of the post is a highbrow reference, instead of an obscure sci-fi reference. But moving on.

Two months ago, I reviewed Animal Man and Swamp Thing #12 with mixed results. I spent most the time geeking out and going on overly long rants about how awesome Animal Man is. (It is.) I'll try to avoid that this week. Oh, and I hate myself for the ending joke. I had to wait two months...not one. Damn you, DC!

Rotworld: Prequel

Rotworld. The mega cross over book of the year. Sure you can have your Court of Owls. Your Avengers vs X-Men. But none shall hold a candle to Rotworld, the Animal Man and Swamp Thing Cross over. (Featuring other books in the Dark family.)

For two reasons. One, every book that will be apart of this cross over will be good. (I'm looking at you Red Hood. And you...Avengers vs X-Men.) And two, more than two issues are written by Scott Snyder. Let us dive into Rotworld Prequel.

This is spoiler heavy, so If you want to read them, do not read this. I can't recommend these two enough, and they aren't bad jumping on points for new readers to either of these series.
