Why no DC New 52 reports this week?

yendiBecause the first two books I read were Deathstroke and Suicide Squad, and they were both so abominable, I was faced with the choice of either stabbing my eyes out with a spork or holding off on reading comics for a day.
Oh, incidentally, all the comments about making Amanda Waller thin are dead on, but none of them cover the fact that, even if Waller had been drawn exactly as Luke McDonnell had drawn her back in the day, the book would still have been an unreadable mess of a book written by someone who not only had no interest in the history or tone of the Squad (a fair assessment in a reboot age), but also had no concept of good writing.
Anyway, longer reviews to come sometime this weekend.
