DetailsJustice League Dark #23: The Hand of Man
Justice League Dark #23
Justice League Dark continues to impress in issue #23 (V, Tynion IV, Hotz, Chung, Leigh), maintaining a streak of momentum that makes this one of my most anticipated releases every month. It doesn’t lose track of the darker, more “out-there” elements that work so well with the team but it also never forgets to tell a solid superhero story.
DetailsFlash Annual #3: Oh Boomerang, Where Art Thou?
In the end, despite its half-hearted attempt at unreliable narration, Flash Annual #3 (Williamson, Segovia, Peterson, Pagulayan) just comes off as a cheap attempt to force some laughs that aren’t really there to begin with. Add to that three artists with clashing styles, and you have a highly skippable $4.99 comic.

Legion of Super-Heroes #6: That Could Be Considered an Ending
Legion of Super-Heroes #6
Despite great art and well-written and snappy dialogue, Legion of Super-Heroes #6 (Bendis, Sook, Von Grawbadger, Bellaire, Sharpe) is only a so-so book, brought down by Bendis’ historical problems with pacing and plotting.
