[ART: 9.5 | STORY: 9 | WRITING: 8.3 | TOTAL: 8.9 (~9)] I absolutely love the concept of this issue and it's done very effectively. Reis' art is gorgeous to look at. Tomasi and Gleason just get this character and every issue is a delight to read. Fantastic issue full of a great story, great writing and great art.

[ART: 9 | STORY: 7.9 | WRITING: 9 | TOTAL: 8.6 (~8.5)] A really good issue. Gerads' art is great and King's script is also fantastic. There is some great humour, but above that, there's some really good character drama happening between the Bat and the Cat. I didn't think I'd particularly care for this issue, but it was really well done.

[ART: 9 | STORY: 8.8 | WRITING: 7.9 | TOTAL: 8.6 (~8.5)] I am loving this story arc, but this wasn't my favourite issue in it. The art was still good, but it's definitely a shame not seeing either Ferreyra or Schmidt. The story was really good, but I think it could've been written better. The reveal was very predictable, but still well done. The last couple of pages were drawn and written oddly with some actions not really making too much sense, but the issue was still solid. The action/chase scene was fun to read. Overall, I'm still excited to see how this story plays out, even if this issue wasn't the greatest. more

[ART: 8.9 | STORY: 7.5 | WRITING: 8.2 | TOTAL: 8.2 (~8)] This was good. The art was solid and it blended nicely into what we saw back in the Rebirth one-shot in May. Nothing major really happened, but the characters were well written and I enjoyed reading this. I'm really excited to see the Atom's story explored in JLA.

[ART: 9.3 | STORY: 7.7 | WRITING: 8.8 | TOTAL: 8.6 (~8.5)] My favourite issue of this series by far, and surprisingly, the Justice League are only featured for a page. I'm glad that you can jump into this issue without having read prior issues of this series. Fans of the series may be disappointed, but this was really good. It was well drawn and well written. The plot is fairly minimal, but the writing carries it forward. The issue definitely helps pad out Lord and Waller's characters for the crossover and puts a new perspective on the two and their relationship. Great stuff. more

[ART: 9.4 | STORY: 8.1 | WRITING: 8.8 | TOTAL: 8.8 (~9)] This is a fantastic event thus far. The art was great, the plot was solid and it was really well written. Williamson manages the cast of character really well and gives most of the characters something to do which is great. The humour lands well and the characters are given emotions. There are some good twists as well. I can't wait for the second half of this story. more

[ART: 9.2 | STORY: 7.5 | WRITING: 7.9 | TOTAL: 8.1 (~8)] This was a really good issue for this series. I was worried this arc might drag, but it doesn't appear to be. Any issue that focuses on Luthor is a highlight as he is a really good character. I like how fleshed out the villains are, their motives are clear and it's nice to see that Superman is understanding of both what he's being told and his past experiences with Lex. Zircher's art is great this issue with one particular page with a certain character being rendered fantastically. Overall, a solid issue for the series that gives 'Men of Steel' some momentum. more

[ART: 9.1 | STORY: 7 | WRITING: 7.8 | TOTAL: 7.8 (~8)] I liked it. Art was solid, writing was witty and the story was decent. A lot of characters acted out of character and that irked me, but it's not a big deal as it really is just a bit of fun. Probably the best guest issue in the series.

[ART: 9.2 | STORY: 8 | WRITING: 7.5 | TOTAL: 8.2 (~8)] I'm surprised, I actually didn't mind this issue. It was a bit of fun and the story seemed to finally pick up momentum again after slugging through the last couple of issues. It was paced well and had some good art from Romita Jr. One of the biggest pros for this issue was that it got rid of the backup story which always dampened my enjoyment. Snyder's writing continues to lack in some areas for me, but it looks like this series is improving. Mr. Freeze is always an exciting read, so I'm looking forward to the next issue more so than I was a month ago. more

[ART: 9.1 | STORY: 7.1 | WRITING: 7.5 | TOTAL: 7.9 (~8)] Unlike In The Name of the Father and similar to Dinosaur Island, this wasn't a superb two-issue story. The art was fine and I do really enjoy Tomasi and Gleason's writing, but the story was very bland for me. A lot of stuff was thrown at the wall and didn't stick too well. I loved the ending, but I'm also glad that this book is finally moving into another big story. more

[ART: 9 | STORY: 7.5 | WRITING: 7.7 | TOTAL: 8 (~8)] A solid issue for this series. Williamson has greatly improved his writing in my opinion, bit I still think he overdoes it on the captions. This issue had some good art from Neil Googe who I wouldn't mind seeing on art duties more regularly as he captures the tone well. I like how this issue really focused on the characters, too. The ending also leaves me very excited for the upcoming arc more

I expected very little from this issue and it surprised me a lot, both in writing and art. The story was fun and creative. Wally's parts were the best, but, as always, Joshua Williamson's pointless captions break the pace of these dynamic scenes. From the beginning of Rebirth, Barry's love life has been quite tumultuous and I really hope this issue is the end of this situation. Moreover, Neil Googe delivers a rather solid artwork, but some facial expressions of Barry and Iris are a bit odd. The cliff-hanger is very intriguing and I'm eager to read the next arc. more

[ART: 9.5 | STORY: 8.2 | WRITING: 7.7 | TOTAL: 8.5 (~8.5)] This book continues to impress as the Emerald Outlaw story powers on. I really enjoy Otto Schmidt's art and this issue was no exception. The story is really heating up and I love the direction of it. There are some nice (albeit fairly predictable) reveals that keep this series moving along at a good pace. Some of the dialogue can be a little clunky, and sometimes it gets a little too political and predictable, but this is a fine comic. Great stuff. more
