They may be Borg, but there's something...strange about them. Something alluring. Especially when it comes to a particularly individualistic member, Nine. Together, Nine an...
I find myself wondering why this isn't built around John Stewart, Kyle Rayner or Hal Jordan. I just don't find the lead compelling. I get it though, they are trying to do something different - in keeping with the spirit of the Absolute line. I feel this series would be loved were it focused on different characters regardless.

I haven't been reading DC K.O. How is it and how is this in relation to it?
I love it. It's pure Scott Synder bombastic style ala Metal. Lux Luthor is fascinating in it. Joshua Williamson beautifully weaves Batman's removal from the tournament - to what looks to be a tournament re-entry. Batman basically gets the "Inner Light" treatment from Star Trek TNG. Living various fictional lives, whilst learning about himself in the process. This comic is a fascinating study of Batman. I love it.
