Cult-de-Sac #3
Suspicions turn into realities as violence as worse things start happening at the Hanson house. Fires, trespassing, vandalism, dead animals — the kids are scared, dad is enraged, and mom is quickly losing her grip on reality. The head of the HOA says all will be well if the family just conforms to their “Covenants.” But the more the darkness grows,...

His new foe, REVENANT, forged by the KINGPIN, found a way to hurt him by targeting someone that Spidey may trust - MILES MORALES! And that means collateral damage. To beat this super villain, Spidey will have to think like a super villain. But can Spider-Ma...
Superman: The Stranger #3
Superman’s methods of cleaning up Metropolis are causing more problems than he wants. Everyone he’s stopped ends up back out on the streets. He needs someone who can help get him the information he acquires out to the masses, and Lois Lane is just the reporter to do it!
Armageddon already had an epilogue in its own series so I don’t see why we need another one here. I hope Zdarsky picks up the pace.

I missed Flash having a bigger role in this issue.

After his near-death experience in Iron Heights, the Flash is taken into the subatomic realm of Ray Palmer, a.k.a. the Absolute Atom. But the Atom is not the only new hero Wally is about to encounter as another major DCU character makes his Absolute debut!
Like a fun 80s slasher flick.
Satanic Panic #1
A sleepy 1980s town is stalked by a masked slasher at the height of the Satanic Panic, where every heavy metal record, Dungeons & Dragons campaign, and teenage outsider is treated as evidence of devil worship. As fear spreads and bodies pile up, three local misfits become the prime suspects in a series of gruesome murders. Join D&D geeks and Ozzy e...
A good ending to the arc. Hopefully this means One More Day is cancelled.
Captain America #16
WHO WILL RULE HELL? As the battle for Hell's throne reaches its dramatic climax, Steve Rogers realizes he may have chosen the wrong side. The effects of the war spill out into the living world, bringing the Marvel Universe to the edge of ARMAGEDDON!
Phillips and Garbett firing on all cylinders.

Batman: Bad Seeds - Gotham General #1
Welcome to General, Gotham City’s tier one trauma center. Power is out, fires are burning, transpo is shot, and the calls just keep coming. There are more patients than beds, half presenting with respiratory complications, the other half suffering hallucinogenic psychotic episodes. In every other emergency department in the DCU, this would be a cat...
DC All In Saga: Darkseid vs. The World #1
Darkseid is...only just beginning. The ultimate anti-life in the universe has been at the heart of the DC All In Saga since its beginning…and while the King Omega battle has been won by the forces of good, the war against Darkseid has only just begun! Comics superstars Scott Snyder and Sanford Greene present the hidden past of the being called Uxus...
It’s fairly interesting but all in all this was a “mid” event.
Batman: Bad Seeds: Sunrise #1
At sunset, Poison Ivy unleashed an attack that transformed Gotham City into a prehistoric nightmare. If she isn’t stopped by the first light of dawn, the city will be lost forever…along with all who dwell there. With the clock ticking, Batman and his allies will put it all on the line to save the day before everything changes forever at sunrise. Th...
The artwork and script are spectacular.

Simply perfect.
Absolute Batman #25
All the villains. All the heroes. All the stakes. What’s left…of Absolute Batman?
The artwork is beautiful but the story is not very interesting.
Uncanny X-Men #37
SOMBER STEEL VS. ADAMANTIUM! KILLER VS. KILLER! After the shocking events of WILD RIDE, some of the UNCANNY X-MEN take a much-needed break to recover and lick their wounds, leaving the WOLVERINE to stand watch over them in their vulnerable state!
This takes a left turn into less interesting territory. Not as good as issue 1.
The Forever Home #2

I really enjoyed this, especially the artwork.
Action Comics #1103
He is Superman’s greatest enemy…he was Clark Kent’s school-age contemporary. He’s been the President of the United States…and the world’s most wanted super-villain. He is Lex Luthor, and this is his story. From the epic Action team of Mark Waid and Patricio Delpeche comes the definitive origin of the greatest criminal mind of our time…if you surviv...
Not bad but kind of a letdown.
Absolute Green Arrow #6
Green Arrow. Black Canary. Solomon Grundy. Hector Hammond. Their paths violently converge in a bloody finale one of them won’t walk away from as the identity of the Green Arrow Killer is finally revealed. But it’s only the first of many surprising revelations as the stage is set for the next audacious chapter in the saga of the newly extended Absol...
Light on action but still interesting.
Miles Morales: Spider-Man #3
SINS OF THE FATHER PART III SPIDER-MAN made a mistake. He got in the way. Now Jeff Morales' past isn't just back to haunt him. Miles' friends and family could all end up as collateral. Jeff may be complicit in this villain's rise...but what role did the Kingpin of Crime play?
Fast paced story with stunning artwork.

Another solid installment.

The dust settles after the explosive climax in Pittsburgh, and Firehawk is left to pick up the pieces and answer questions from the Justice League. Can Lorraine explain Ronnie’s actions, and just what does this mean for the future of Firestorm?!
