They should ban monkeys from superhero comic books.
Amen!

Don't care! Monkeys, apes, gorillas. Don't want 'em. Don't need 'em. Don't belong in superhero comics.

..... Can you tell that the appearance of the insipid simians was the one thing is this book that really annoyed me??

The rest of the book was fairly good for a first shot. Art was really nice. Writing seemed better here than in GD, although we are only 1 issue in. I'm reserving judgment on this until I've seen several issues, especially a couple after the end of the stupid Grodd crap.

Teamwise, I like the inclusion of Nightwing, Arsenal, and Grace (even after only one issue, I like Grace!). Thunder and Jade (yet to appear), I'm reserving judgment on until I see how they develop. And I could do without Metamorpho (a little goes a LONG way) and Indigo (I LOVED Nightwings quip, along the lines of "Great! The microwave oven can think!").
