Kind of curious about the board's thoughts on this imprint. Has a lot of things going for it, but seems to be not talked about at all.
Was really excited for Silencer, Sideways, and Brimstone when they first came out, Terrifics too

Not reading the others, but I do enjoy Terrifics. It’s my favorite team book!

Was really excited for Silencer, Sideways, and Brimstone when they first came out, Terrifics too It's kind of hard to launch new characters with the glut of titles that come out every month. I think the idea was good but IMO the market isn't really looking for new characters. Plus most of them are copies of other properties (Silencer = Punisher). I think the Terrifics stands the best chance in today's market since it takes established heroes and puts them together in a new combination.

I tried Immortal Men for the first two issues and while I liked the character designs and the concept the characterization was lacking and it jumped into some big save the world plot too quick.

I have grabbed several issues of Terrifics and Challengers. Like Terrifics enough to continue since it has a nice touch of fun/science/characters and I love the chemistry(pun intended) between Metamorpho/Plastic Man. Element Dog had better remain a part of the series! The 1st two issues of Challengers showed some promise but then seems to have fallen flat. Since it is only 6 issues I may follow it through to the ending.

Loving the Terrifics. One of the few new titles I follow besides Hawkman and the Fantastic Four.
Damage looks tempting and Sideways has a good premise.

First I heard of it. What is the DC does Marvel angle? Copied some Marvel ideas. Sideways is similar to Spider-Man. Damage is similar to the Hulk. Silencer is like Punisher. Terrifics is like Fantastic Four. |

I just had a surprise (about 45 minutes ago) visitor came over and he gave me a copy of The Terrifics that had a team concept that DC Comics is copying the Fantastic Four. Mr. Terrific is Mister Fantastic (Smart and Resourceful), Phantom Girl is Invisible Woman (Sex Appeal, Intangibilities) Metamorpho is The Thing (Strong, Dependable, and Etc), and Plastic Man (The Humor, similar to Johnny Storm - figure of Speech) is the Human Torch. I just glanced the 1st Issue and started reading it and it's quite enjoyable. I just didn't think about this and I just felt that this angle works for them. I loved Plastic Man and Metamorpho in the past and always will and this group has a good feel to. So, later this week -- I'm going to check out the others to see whether I like it or not.
