If you didn't like that definitely don't get the next one. I thought the Paul Cornell issues were decent (#1-6). After that Peter Milligan took over and I really wanted to like it, but got bored really fast. Jim Starlin is writing it now and it looks like a standard superhero book.
Sorry, I should have said it was tpb #2 I bought.
Jim Starlin is still working? Shit. Milligan is a good writer and can be a lot of fun, so that's a shame.
I'm seeing a lot of the same sort of crap permeating DC's New 52. I hate to say it, because the observation is such a cliche, but the repeated vibe of these books is very 1990s Image Comics.
