    Some of us are bullets

    Spoilers yo! Seriously I can't block them and I'm pretty bad about blurting them out as is. So I'm checking out the Villain month issues to give the new reader perspective and seeing if they really draw me in like they're suppose to.

    The Good:

    Man this issue was fantastic, while the change in origin seems a little cliched at first it takes a good turn to a more interesting set up. Floyd seems to fun off of a strange set of values and it keeps the issue quite interesting as he explains his personal view of the world. I really like the art and how the panels are set up in this one, it really adds to the story and makes everything look great. Some really great action bits as well, there's not a lot but just enough to please my inner bloodlust.

    The Bad:

    So Deadshot's origins have some big changes here which change his potential dynamic with Batman quite a bit. I really wish it had been expanded upon as it was one of the things I've always found interesting about Deadshot. But outside of that no real bit complaints.

    Overall:

    I really enjoyed this issue although it doesn't have anything to do with the JLA so I can't say it made me want to get into the series. If anything it made me more interested in Suicide Squad. Anyway speaking of Suicide Squad fans should check this one out as well as Deadshot fans. This also leads into a tie-in for Forever Evil so if you're following that event and you plan on checking out tie-ins then you should check this issue out.

      This is going to be a bit of a divisive issue I think. Some drastic changes are made to Deadshot's origins, and it creates a very delicate result. In some ways it appears they've made his origin more generic in some ways, but at the same time there's some little twists to it that make it very effective and definitely extremely fitting for the character. His personality is also probably the most accurate since the New 52 began.Maybe it's just how much I love Secret Six. I'm so attached to that b...

      Oh goodie, another villains month book. I've reviewed Joker & Darkseid, and they both were bad. So, I don't know as much about Deadshot as the others, so I probably wouldn't even like this one as much. I didn't have high expectations going in. I read it, and it was fantastic. It was just so well done. Let's just start the review so I can say why.The GoodDeadshot's Origin - I won't go into spoiler territory here, but I liked Deadshot's origin. I have no clue how accurate it is, but si...
