With the Dial finally secured, and on the run from those who want to control the powerful device that can give anyone the powers of a random superhero, Miguel and Summer head to the old Justice League Detroit headquarters with the hope of finding some help in contacting Superman.
RATED T
Things are finally starting to get serious for Miguel. The ending will surely leave readings eager to find out what Miguel will do next. His journey to becoming a true hero is about to take the next step. I'm hoping that the doesn't sidetrack the incredible plot development that his character has been given. Even though he still thinks that Superman can only help him, Miguel's about to find out that he needs to be his own hero. Read Full Review
This series has blown expectations out of the water with each issue. Read Full Review
The ending is another cliffhanger and I'm okay with that. It's really a great issue and the story is told very well. I'm interested to see what happens in the last two issue and then quietly hope for an ongoing series. It's been great. Read Full Review
Dial H for HERO continues to be one of DCs most consistently engaging books, and it has just recently been extended to twelve issues. If this issue is a taste of things to come, the extension was a wise decision on DCs part. Read Full Review

The story remains strong, but Joe Quinones' brilliant art shifts make this one of the most inventive books on the stands. Read Full Review
DC has extended this series to a twelve issue arc. It's a fun ride and I hope Miguel can tap into his own "Sockamagee" in the Hero Verse, and come out on the other side as a hero. Dial H for Hero is fun"Sam Humphries is picking up where this series left off and it's not too heavy and has just the amount of JLA to keep it relevant. Who knows"maybe Miguel is the key to Leviathan. Read Full Review
Without a doubt, Dial H for Hero is one of the most obscure books from DC right now and it is worth your attention for everything new you can only see once within these pages. I look forward to what the next issue offers because as someone new to this series, there's no other place in the DC Universe like where we're about to go. The reveal of the secret origins of the Heroverse is something to get excited for. Read Full Review
If the series keeps this up and continues to poke good-natured ribbing at comics in general, it won't be long before Marvel wants in on the joke. It may have been Michael J. Fox during his Family Ties days who said that when Mad Magazine makes fun of you, that's when you know you've arrived. Perhaps Dial H will become the new Mad Magazine, the new SNL. I can think of worse strategies. Read Full Review

So glad this series got extended.
A fun issue. Humphries must be chuckling to himself as he types this stuff up. So much childlike joy in the book, much like the other Wonder Books.
The Dial H results are fun, with homages to Miller (I think), Moebius and Hank Ketcham...and the rest of the Sunday funnies character creators.
A welcome respite from the dour and abstract books from so, so many Miller and Moore wannabes.
This is neat, but I'm not invested in the story.
I feel like nothing is ever given a chance to develop. Every issue they’re just like “Miguel! You’re angry now!” and he’s like “Grr, I’m so angry that I will do something foolish!” I wish it leaned harder into the weird heroes.
