Battle Action v3 2

I don’t know why I can’t quit Garth Ennis war stories.  By this point, they all blur together, and it’s really hard for one to set itself apart from the crowd.  (Including this one.)  But I’ll keep buying them for as long as he puts them out.

Jupiter’s Legacy: Finale 3

Just playing out the string.  That’s all I’m doing.

Batgirl 3

Some really nice action from Takeshi Miyazawa.  Still don’t know what Shiva’s motivations are, which is how it should be.

Absolute Batman 4

Scott Snyder continues to kill it as we get a little more of Bruce’s origin story.  It’s too bad Nick Dragotta isn’t here to do the art.  Gabriel Walta is fine, but it’s just not the same.

Absolute Superman 3

More origin material, and Jason Aaron’s finally sunk his teeth into me.  He provides a sympathetic, engaging portrait of Kal-El and his parents  on Krypton, which will surely make their inevitable separation all the more heartbreaking.  Great stuff.

DC vs Vampires: World War V 6

Darkseid shows up in the middle of a major throwdown.  Matthew Rosenberg keeps tossing in more elements, and he continues to make it work.

Question: All Along the Watchtower 3

Wow, I lost enthusiasm for this rather quickly.  I really wish I liked this more, the potential is certainly there with Renee and Batwoman.  But the Eradicator, Cyborg Superman, a mystery I don’t care about - it’s not happening for me.

Birds of Prey 17

I gave it another story arc, but this still doesn’t have it.  Kelly Thompson is always pushing up against the awesome barrier, but more often than not fails to break through.  (She does have her moments, though.)
