This comic is sick, PKJ is killing the story, the art from Montoya is quietly the best art from DC imo, and every time this book drops it’s just a very fun read. Even these more verbose issues keeps you engaged.

A little confused by the ending but def still a pull. I prefer Spectregraph over this but I do enjoy Snyder’s in depth writing here, the last chapter moves very quickly. Cliffhanger felt predictable but interesting nonetheless.

House of Brainiac is shaping up nicely. New villain shows right off the bat that she is a badass. Hopefully they explain more the tech of what Brainiac did to make the Queen. Fun panels early too with Lobo v Superman. Lot of good stuff with Lex in here too, loving the way Williamson has written Lex.

This is solid but at this point in the series you are either ok with King’s snail pace storytelling or are off it. Not the strongest issue in the run but it’s a deep dive into WW psychology. Sampere on art is incredible.

Probably the best issue of the run outside of Beast World. The new villain has an awesome origin story and it’s a fun read. Art is great too, the action flows which is what you want in a book like this. Good twist/cliffhanger with the Raven storyline, nice plot progression.

this is a solid series right here. Tom Taylor is cooking, and this is not only in my opinion the Definitive Titans run, but it's right up there with the great superhero team runs like Geoff Johns Justice League, Grant Morrison JLA, Hickman and Bendis Avengers, Hickman's Fantastic Four, Jed Mackay's Avengers, etc. This is one of the best superhero team runs out there, and I highly reccomend people more

I’m enjoying this as a vampire story sort of turned on its head. There are a lot of characters and plot lines and the dialogue between them is well written. It doesn’t seem to focus on one particular character in the struggle of mortals vs vampires, but a bunch of different tensions in the conflict between characters.
