Your greatest comic book disappointments

[ShadowTuga]

Oooooohhhhhh how about this?

The Batman Spawn crossover with McFarlane and Miller?

I was so excited about that book [those books] coming out. I knew they were going to be the best thing ever.

It was the first book that I bought because of the hype and was left scratching my head.

Also, Dark Knight Returns or whatever.

I thought Miller was tops [somehow forgetting the Spawn thing-I think I blamed Todd] and to see this I was so so sad.

Dark Knight Strikes Again, I assume?
DKR is not only my favourite Batman story, it is my favourite comic.

Infinity.

Right, right, Dark Knight Re-returns...lol not the first one.

Even the greatest talents have their failures... Frank Miller's biggest was Robocop 2.

[Zaphod]

it probably won't be popular choice but, VEI Valiant. The hyped return of Valiant is what brought me back to comics after over a decade of indifference.

And here I thought it was The Spirit.

[dave]

I liked the style of the Spirit and appreciated what he was trying to do. Not sure I'd refer to it as a disappointment, personally, but it could have been far better.

The Dark Knight Strikes Again has to be worse, doesn't it?

What about those Spawn crossovers?

Ooh, forgot about that... But then, I've never seen it.

Trust me if you think Robocop 2 is bad The Spirit is even worse (although Sam Jackson is hystically over-the-top).

Aside from the first death of Valiant? Probably the way Dark Horse killed CGW and its rebrand. Next to that....Red/Blue. The story that permanently killed Superman for me and drove me away from DC and comics for years.

Cross Gen
New 52 editorial
all marvel cross overs last 7 years
Jim Lee selling out to DC
Like some others said Mike and Michael and Sam Loeb
Not buying walking dead 1's at $10. ea.

[Cyberstrike]

The Transformers: Revelations-Furman's stupid cosmic storyline concludes.
The Transformers: Maxiaum Dinobots-Furman's even more stupid Earth based story concludes
The Transformers: Heart of Darkness-DnA show that they NEVER write a Transformers comic ever again.
Dragon Age-a bad Huberto Ramos wanna be artist and dull story show why EA should leave their comics to be published by people who know what they're doing.

Might date myself a bit but...

The follow-ups to Infinity Gauntlet (War, Crusade, etc...)
Milestone (was a huge fan of Xombie)
Chaos Effect
Birthquake
Acclaim reboot
Dark Horse not sticking with Shooter's reboot of Gold Key
The fact the every Deathlok reincarnation fails

After such an amazing start, the last few issues of Quantum & Woody.

I still regard it as one of the worst movies I have paid to see.

For me, almost every issue of Quantum and Woody from VEI...
