Adams really has a great grasp on Hal now, even if I am not quite sure he knows what to do with him.

A great ending to a great series, with a fun rejoined by Waid and Samnee to O'Neil old insistence that Batman never makes public appearances. I want more of this.

A lot of fun - and it's interesting that someone finally asked "how DID the JLU build its satellite?" - but what's up with Lian? Hero or villain or just a teen?

So what's going on with John?

I owe Waid an apology. Last month I was annoyed that Gen. Lane was trying to arrest Superboy, since the Army cannot do that legally. Surely Waid knows better. And it turns out, he does.

Generally solid story that does right by Clark and by Captain Comet. Though why does Waid mention a superhero team of the past that isn't mentioned in his history of DC?

Fun and well written but overstuffed and simplistic. But also clearly meant for younger readers, which is almost unheard of for a Marvel comic in 2025.

Strong ending to a story that could have stood to be shorter.

An interesting comic but a bit clunky in spots, and making the Japanese commandant a cannibal skirts crossing the line from trying to depict war crimes to falling back on racist tropes.

Five really good issues setting up a very disappointing and predictable sixth.

A very mixed bag. A Batman so incapable of living without Alfred he's either got a hologram or a hallucination - neither is healthy. Vandal Savage. Those stupid Fraction labels. And in the real world, when you run into people with a car, they get hurt badly. But also a humanistic Batman who tries to actually help and look out for people in need. And that amazing art. I think, maybe, Fraction gets Batman, which is at least a good start. Whether he figures out what to do with him when no one outside Waid has in a while is another story. more

Generic characterization for Simon and PG. Could be any GL and any powerful heroine.

There is a welcome calmness here in an age when comics tend to be frenetic but racing to nothing since everything is decompressed. Rucka once more shows he understands how to tell a story. And Scott draws the best comic book cat I have ever seen.

But how is Lian that old? Makes no sense within the way comics timelines work.

Very well put together but i feel like we should have been at this place three months ago.

Something is a bit off here. Maybe I just don't really get the whole avatar thing.

I'm not sure how much I buy the premise of replacing everyone with, well, hired goons, but the big switch from the rather bland Grimaldi to actual big name villains has really kicked this comic into overdrive.

An interesting counterpoint to Star Trek's view of emotionless beings - as well as Far Sector's approach - but I am not entirely sure it would work that way. Still, "rational Guy" is a hoot.

But dear lord, what is wrong with John Stewart and his sister as a ring construct and his mother in his ring? He needs therapy desperately.

I appreciate Waid trying to interrogate the contradictory ideas of Bizarro World but it's never entirely successful. And is Waid writing too many books now?

The striking cover matches the clever reworking of the Kid Eternity premise. But where's Ted Knight?

A bit on the gory side - this should have been a Black Label comic maybe - but the art and the interaction between our leads is wonderful. And who doesn't love a heist story?

Reminds me of DnA's cosmic Marvel but with more soul.

As ever, the illogice of Bizarro stuff undermines the storytelling, if not fatally.

The interviews are interminable and not worth the money. The Aaron story is fun though hits far too many of the tropes we know Aaron loves to us, and I suspect fans of the ducks who aren't into Marvel are a bit befuddled. And nothing can top Night on Bear Mountain.

Things finally come into focus. Though as ever the art holds it all together.

- Allred is all wrong for this.

- There has got to be a better way to tell a history than this.

- Wait, Kara and Barry died? How does that mesh even a little with what is actually going on in the current comics?

- So we're at like 50 percent pre-Crisis history, 30 percent post-Crisis, and 20 percent post-Flashpoint. What a mess.

If only thinks unfolded slower and we didn't race from character to character.

Good solid comic but we are taking forever to get to the point.

Great art. But the Krypton story could have been told in three pages and really nothing about Krypto makes any sense. Though I have to admit, dogs bore me.

More sure footed than the first part, though I still don't love the Kents being so young.

That is a lot to pay for Dan Jurgens, but he seems to have found new life as a writer so many years after his first go-round on Supes, and he's a lot better than Williamson. But the story here is the art. Redondo might simply be DC's best.

Kind of fluffy, and why not just make the bad guy a talk show host instead of going for something overly contemporary. (A video podcast isn't a podcast, it's just more video!) And if you want to see Jim Gordon and Perry White, much better to read another World's Finest, the one by Dave Gibbons and Steve Rude.
