I bought Trinity up to #4 but gave it up for the one reason which you didnt mention.. which was that it was taking so damn long to move along and become something I would feel happy spending money on week in week out, its a lot of money each week to be spening on a book I dont think is exciting and giving me what I expect from it. It seemed okay, just too slow, Im not nailing Kurt's writting, he is great and I know he is.
herc was BRILLIANT, so good. oh man i cannot emphises how awsome it is!
The thing is a story thats gonna take 52 issues SHOULD take a while to build up some steam IMO.
I found the big fight issues fantastic, and exciting so I just cannot call the book anything close to boring.
Most people feel the back-up story is a bit of a bore and well fair enough, but that portion of the story became far more exciting and less explanatory after issue 6, with the latest ish ( 8 ) really showing us why the Tarot card gal is important!
Yeah I do get that, thats totally understandable. The fight scenes I felt were very forced and predictable, accept when Superman got smacked in the face though! That was amazing! I laughed so hard at that and didnt see it coming!
I enjoyed the back up story in it myself, its just all in all, I couldnt shake this feeling that it all didnt fit together as an enjoyable story each week. I wasnt excited to read it each time it came out. So I stopped.
I have to agree with Rob here. I dropped Trinity about the same time, for the same reasons. Usually I'd snap up anything by Busiek and Bagley, but this title just doesn't do it for me.
Maybe it is haha, Im not completely up to date on DCU history therefore I probably didnt get a lot of what they were referencing too and it was wasted on me, which I can understand.. I'll stick to Marvel haha.
i love matt fraction and i'm loving invincible iron man. my only beef is that (like with the ariel olivetti punisher war journal work)photos of city back drops, the ocean and other things are photoshopped in... which i think takes away from the tone of the comic as they really stick out against larroca's smooth art.
...but the story is great so far. i especially loved the recap on stane's life for the movie fans! enoying the crap out of it!!!

Well maybe its simply a case of me being such a DC fan and getting all the references.
Mayhaps it is just too entrenched in continuity for the non-DC junkie!
