Wonder Woman 43 ... I could look at this cover for hours. Just lovely. Diana's family troubles continue with her supposed aunt ready to destroy earth. Etta and Steve have been wonderful supporting castmates and I hope that continues with the new creative team ... Rise of Arsenal 2 ... I have no idea where this is going and where Roy will end up or even if I'll like it, and while I know some people haven't liked this, I have gotten caught up in the emotion. The art has been wonderful, and Lian,

Wish Upon a Star ... Originally uploaded by ShellySI've been wanting this since I saw the announcement months ago. I'd wanted the Cyclone figure, too, but when I saw it, I wasn't really thrilled with her face. Her expression was odd, off, weird, so I didn't buy her. But I might change my mind and buy her next week ... But Courtney is quite lovely ... I read the latest Wonder Woman, which has one of the loveliest WW covers ever, and the 2nd Arsenal issue, which was intense. I was saddened that

Blackest Night Wonder Woman ... I wasn't going to get any of the Blackest Night figures. I've got a lot of action figures, including those from DC Direct, and I really didn't feel I needed these. Until I saw the Wonder Woman one today. She's a fine addition to my collection and one day soon, I'll do a pic with all my Wonder Women figures and variations. Meanwhile, zombies never looked so good!Thanks for reading ...

Since we're now in Brightest Day (review of issue 0 soon), I'll skip reviewing the last issues of the Blackest Night, except to say I like how it ended, even if Ralph and Sue are still dead. How Boston Brand deals with being alive (and does he still have a twin brother named Cleveland? I can't keep track of all the retconning in the DCU that happened in the 10 years I wasn't reading comics), which is somewhat more dramatic than the other characters restored to life, will be my major interest in

Finally caught up reading this, which meant reading the last BN issues of GL Corps, GL, and BN 8 in one sitting. I loved the foldout spread in BN 8. I loved the not unexpected resurrections, though some surprised me. And I'm curious about why Boston Brand was brought back to life. It would seem to negate his whole super power thing. Most satisfying was that Shiera was back, not Kendra. I liked Kendra, but she wasn't the right Hawkgirl/Hawkwoman. Hawkwoman is Shay-ara to Carter's Katar, and

New Team for Power Girl

I have reservations about this announcement on DC's Source. Sami Basri, the artist, is new to me. The preview cover looks nice, but PG doesn't look like PG. A minor problem, because even Amanda Conner's version didn't look like the more realistic PG art we saw in JSA. It's the writer, Judd Winick, who's giving me reservations ... I have enjoyed many stories Judd has written. He did a nice job on Kyle Rayner, GL, and his work on Green Arrow was decent and often good. If it's a character he has a

Some reviews to distract me. But I'll have a post about Lian Harper up either later today or this weekend ... Detective 862 ... Looks like we'll be getting a storyline with Bette. Cool! The current story is pretty good, too. But the highlight for me was The Question, with Renee meeting Helena's contact: Commissioner Gordon's daughter. Renee's jaw-dropping reaction was priceless ... Green Lantern 51 ... And we're in the home stretch for Blackest Night! This was a strong chapter and that ending

I Knew it with Spoilers

Do I need to repeat, SPOILER ALERT ... ? ... So, having wasted my money last issue on Cry for Justice in the hopes of learning Lian Harper's fate, I wasn't going to spend more on that mess of a comic. But I had to know. So I skimmed. And it was there, just as I'd feared ... I'd been hopeful after folks mentioned the whole city vanishes gambit, but then, in my heart, I knew that wasn't what happened to Lian. Not with the blatant teasers and hints, both in the related comics already published and

It's been awhile. I have dropped a lot of books. Some I have kept because I actually like them. It is like comic book reading the way it is supposed to be, I guess ... My surprise ongoing favorite has been Incredible Hercules ... I love Greg Pak's scripting, and the interaction between Hercules, Amadeus Cho, and the supporting cast is fun and fresh ... Wonder Woman and Power Girl are my "female" go-to books. Gail Simone has lit the fire on the Amazon's book, taking it from a so-so title to a
