DC's EARTH 2 #17
Wow, this book is intense, and though this issue is a bit depressing it is certainly impressive in its execution. Things really explode here: a lot of strands and a lot of action but this doesn't throw the pacing off. And the art is, as always for EARTH 2, fantastic.

Marcel's LONGSHOT SAVES THE MARVEL UNIVERSE #1
I have always been a fan of Longshot, whose power is my favorite: probability manipulation. Here his powers play a wonderful role as story-drivers. Probability manipulation can drive a story as no other power can... it almost becomes a character in its own right. The pacing feels a bit off, but the story is original. A great start.

DC's FOREVER EVIL #3
Wow, this book is really taking off. There is this underlying atheological reflection on DC's classical underlying soteriology. I will write more on that later. I disagree with the message but the way it is sent is amazing.

Dynamite's ARMY OF DARKNRESS VS HACK/SLASH #3
This book continues to deliver, though there is some unevenness. Earlier issues were consistently "good". This issue is mostly "okay" with moments of sheer brilliance.

DC's SUPERMAN: UNCHAINED #4
This was a great issue as Wraith's and Superman's relationship expands. The book jumps around a bit too much, and the pacing is thrown off some by that, and the parts with Lex drag a bit. But these are minor issues compared to the overall, which comes off brilliantly.

Dynamite's ARMY OF DARKNESS/RE-ANIMATOR One-Shot
Most of Dynamite's ARMY OF DARKNESS offerings are quite good. This is an exception. It kind of sucked. Everything was off.
