Is earth one as a line of books shaping up well?
I've been meaning to check them out for a while.

They're shit. Every single one of them. Don't bother.

Superman Earth One vol 1 is okay, vol 2 is terrible, vol 3 is okay.

Teen Titans Earth One vol 1 is mediocre and is basically just one half of a story.

Batman Earth One vol 1 is better than the other ones but I wouldn't call it "good", but vol 2 is good.

Aquaman Earth One has Manapul writing it so it's bound to be mediocre and won't come out for like 3 years at least.
Flash Earth One is getting written by the writer of the Superman ones, so it's probably going to be mediocre too.
Wonder Woman Earth One has a chance at being good, but I wouldn't hold my breathe.

tl;dr The entire line is mostly mediocre

Only read bat vol 1, I enjoyed it. It's not a conventional batman story so it triggers a lot of autists. Has a refreshing take on Alfred and I loved one particular fight in the book.

Superman is pretty crap but there are good moments in 1 and 3, especially when Supes rants at the UN. Batman is pretty good but feels a bit rushed at times. Killer Croc is a bro in it which I liked. Haven't read TT. WW is apparently gonna be a Grant Morrison book so high hopes.

Earth One Batman is basically the anti-Batgod.

Earth-1 Supes was a dud, but JMS isn't a bad writer. He's done some good work.

I don't know what's the problem with Supes vol1. I've been reading the comments of many guys over here who thinks it sucks, but they never say why. I thought it was pretty entertaining and the art was great. Not a piece meant to win an Eisner, but good enough to read it from time to time.

I feel the same way and think of it as a better version of MoS.

I've only read Superman vol. 1-2 and Titans

Superman stories were mediocre. Some enjoyable aspects, but overall, not really worth it, IMO.

Teen Titans was abysmal.

I've never read the Batman ones. Mostly because I've seen so many takes on Batman that I've sort of had my fill on "what if Batman were slightly different?" and reinterpretations of his origins. Would rather just read new stories now.
