DC's ongoing team-up book, "The Brave And The Bold", has taken a turn for the worse in recent months. Whether the blame goes to new writer J. Michael Stracynski or the editorial decision to go from story arcs to a "one-shot" format, I don't know. But I don't like it.
Stracynski is actually doing a fine job. I shouldn't be too hard on him. But the one-shot format is not what I've been buying this comic for. Although the artwork of George Perez felt a little static after a few issues, I really enjoyed most of the story Mark Waid was weaving. I buy comics for ongoing plots worth investing in, but with the tag line "Lost stories of yesterday, today and tomorrow" added to this title, declaring its new "one-shot" story status quo, DC can consider me off of this title until they change it back to an ongoing arc format.
