While the scene with the Justice League felt a bit off, it was the moments between Lex Luthor and J'onn J'onnz that made this issue as gripping as it is.

Though it isn't as exciting as anything from the "Sixth Dimension" story,Justice League #26is an admirable entry in this series, easily setting up its new arc, while also adding crucial bits to the "Year of the Villain" event.

Miskatonic High is a satisfying balance fun and frights, with snarky, nonplussed characters and exceptionally designed monsters. Come for the Lovecraftian horrors, stay the fun characters and the dangerous mysteries to be solved.

Take a look at the cover of the first issue of Buzzard, and you'll know exactly what you're about to read. It's unapologetically British, with a punk rock flair and off-the-wall violence.

You won't regret picking up this fun, action-packed independent comic. It's got the best parts of Deadpool and Kingsman.

This is it. The moment readers have been waiting for since the first issue of Heroes in Crisis hit the shelves back in September. Though the big revelation should be the apex of this issue, it's the character study - nay, deconstruction - that drives the book, and the series as a whole.

"Peter Cannon: Thunderbolt" begins as an all too familiar story, but winds up becoming a wholly unique superhero adventure.

With a new arc and artist, the story takes a (hopefully) brief detour from the chaos in the realm of The Dreaming. Still, it's a well-structured tale of tragedy and Desire, that devotees of the original SANDMAN might appreciate more than new readers.

The story and artwork featuring Martian Manhunter is strong and on point, making up for the middle pages in "Apex Predator" which comes off as a bit flimsy.

Mary Shelley: Monster Hunter #1 is a slow burning introduction. It doesn't thrust the reader into the action, but offers some promise at the end of the issue.

For fans of the original series, Jim Henson's The Storyteller: Sirens #1 is good for the kids and for the inner-child. It's simplistic, but worth a look.
