This issue's story is interesting, as usual with Doomsday Clock, but the series is losing my interest with the slow release schedule. It is well-crafted nonetheless. Dr. Manhattan is intimidating and it feels like we're...

It was a good issue, but I'm beginning to feel that this is a six issue miniseries spread into twelve issues. I'm just excited to see how it ends, and if it brings back a happier DCU

I still need to read issues 7 and 8...gosh I am so behind in all of my reading.
I know that struggle. I'm only up to my pulls from mid-November. That doesn't count all the back issues I've got to get through.
Yep. Sometimes hard to keep track.
I'm behind by 2 years lol
Agreed. I'll wait until the last issue to be released. Then I'll read them all at once.
I have been holding a bit. I have read up to issue 6 but stopped and will wait till the rest come out to finish the series. It has been fantastic. The art is untouchable and the story is very intriguing.
I hope to share the final issue with my grandchildren as we glide along in our hover cars in the distant future ;)
I thought bleeding cool reported another delay in schedule for this issue ?March 6th if I remember correctly.
DC's website still says 2/27.
Did this get pushed back again?!?!
Yep. March 06 is the new date. It wouldn't surprise me if that changes again.
@timw yeah i get what you mean, they put the schedule to every other month and still couldn't stick to that. its a shame as it is a good series but i think the way things have gone the changes this was meant to have will be voided, too much time has passed and the dcu has changed since rebirth
I am just going to collect the rest and wait till they are all out to read the series. I am fine with that.
Probably a good idea. I've been reading them as i buy them, but i always have to back to previous issues because so much time in between i can't remember what was going on. and I thought the issue with Rorschach in the mental hospital was not very good.
I think they should of come out every week instead would of worked better imo .
sure would've. or at the least one every month.
The fact there is no explanation or apology for these delays is what really makes me angry. Does DC think we are stupid or something? I mean what is the issue here? I know for a fact it's not just because Gary Frank is slow as this has not happened with other series he has been working on. My personal take is that it is being rewritten on the fly. Whether at Geoff Johns wanting or some one up in corporate doing so. We know for a fact that this is happening because Gary Frank tweeted a page of art he drew that was completely cut from the book. This whole thing has been a disaster and the silence by DC is making it worse.
I believe he said it was a page that had to be cut out of issue 9 or 10.
What websites do you use for your info ? :)
Stuff like this is why I avoid all the Big 2 crossover events. BTDT, not worth the mental effort.
I have been doing Variants for almost every cover I collect.
Some issues I get variant some I dont. Some I get both. Just whatever I like the best.
Issue to issue decision for me, based on whichever one I like the most. I got the variant this time.
Guy Gardner and the humor in this issue was great. A fun ride but I don’t like how each issue is a cliffhanger. I don’t think the final issue can be worth all the subtle hints. I still don’t really know what is going on.
Does anyone remember what is happening in this?
Yes, of course.
I had to go back through some of the previous issues. I'm still a little confused to be honest, but I'm sure all will be revealed in the next few issues, right?
Yeah it's tough to track... I'm going to have to reread this whole series at some point in time.
I am behind on reading but I agree this is simply fantastic.
Reading this comic was just an exceptionally great experience. Some of my favorite art. Worth the wait.
Well when you hinge the continuity of your entire universe and make promises to answer questions about an event that was set two years prior and you can't get the issues out on time, that's a problem. Regardless of story quality. It's affect on the larger universe is vastly diminished now and all that was promised is now lost. So yeah it's a problem. For references issue one came out in November 2017! It is now March 2019. That is 17 months for 9 issues. Woof! And I agree it's good and the art is great too. But the roll out has been horrible.
The best way to show your disappointment in DC is with the power of your dollar. Show them how disappointed you are.
I havn't been keeping up with it. But I'm looking forward to reading it all at once when it's finished.
I rarely give a single issue 5 stars but this one gets 5 .
