I never really read much Wildstorm back in the day. My Image consumption just wasn't as in depth as it was for the Big Two, and something about the Wildstorm Universe just never grabbed my attention. I read Alan Moore's run on WildC.A.T.s and the first dozen or so issues of Gen13 but that was pretty much it. So, I decided to try and remedy that with my first ever Mish Mash Monday. Fortunately, between my friends and a small run to my local (extra special thanks to Guy), I was able to collect most of the issues.
WildC.A.T.s is everything bad with 90s comics. There's not a narrative story. It's just pretty pictures with some text. What's funny is that Image was made by artists but how much they rely on writers. I mean, look at this: 
Look at how much text there is versus how much art. There's less text in the Joss Whedon/John Cassidy X-Men run. And Whedon is one of the better writers.
It's also bad because it just drops you in media res. True it was going on in 90s comics with the Big Two but they did have decades of stuff going on that people could stand it (including me... although some of that dense text would even piss me off). But this tries to fake that much dense background and to be fair, it just doesn't play.
