I knew 5 Days to Die was something different from the very first panel – and I’m not talking about its clever weekly format.

Scalped #40

Wonder Woman #602
It would be a shame if audiences allowed what J. Michael Straczynski is doing in Superman or perhaps their own personal grudges against the new costume design to deprive them of one the strongest Wonder Woman stories in a long time.
-
Batman #702
With Batman #702, Grant Morrison ends his short, three-issue return to the series that first launched his innovative exploration of the Dark Knight nearly four years ago.
-
Zeroids: The Return #1

The creative duo of Marz and Kang deserve kudos for doing more for Ani-Max than simply showing up.

Networked: Carabella on the Run is a comic book with a whole lot of head and very little heart.
-
Green Lantern Corps #51
Although Green Lantern Corps has shown considerable progress and growth during Tony Bedard's short, four issue tenure on the title, the release of issue #51 reflects what many, multi-issue arcs do as of late as the middle installment diminishes the flow and pacing of the larger story.
