The Flash-#4


Did anyone notice that Val looks like a Hispanic or black woman on the cover… Weird, I remember when the first flash cover came out; I thought the new flash would have been black according to the skin tone of the person on the cover.
The griffin is found out that his powers are changing, or should I say changing him. Bart is having hard time in dealing with his new powers. He is the speed force, weird huh…
I’m enjoying this run of flash; I never followed the previous runs only thru JLA.. But I enjoy this series…Has some heart, action, a nice story… I plan to follow this series for awhile..
Anyone know what was that park that Jay and Bart were in when they were talking about the Griffin, seemed like Flash Hall, with a grave yard for previous flash’s,, Never saw something like that..
Looking forward to the next issue, where Bart will return to the public eye as flash and the return of an old family foe.

Civil War-#4


The giant is dead. Wow……
I knew there was something fishy on that Thor that appeared. All of a sudden a controled Thor?? This is where things change. Only 3 issues left. Spiderman is already questioning his thoughts on civil war, and I don’t blame him. A creation of Starks and Reed has killed one of their own. I believe they have crossed the line, and this will ring forever in the Marvel U.
So who’s side I’m on?? Tough, killing Foster is pushing me towards CAP’s side.
A "nice" for me was Cloak and Dagger in action, not much action, but something. I was a big fan of cloak and dagger in my youth. Can’t remember why but…. It could be that they weren’t a big famous set of characters, and had to deal with problems of not being accepted. But seeing them again brought me back to my youth of when I use to read their series.. I named my female pit bull Dagger..

52-Week 20


The most interesting part of these issues has to be Super Nova in the bat cave. Already that tells us a clue on who is this new super hero.
He must have a Batman connection, how did he get into the bat cave? Knowing Bat’s there must be security up the yang in there, not even lint can get inside without some kind of security clearance.
Overall a nice read, not to exciting. The lobo stuff was cool, looking forward to see how that turns out.

52-Week 19


Another Booster Gold??? That’s what I thought.. But what this issue has brought me was a solid story line… I mean it didn’t solve anything, It was an issues made to make me get the next one.
He knows!!!
WHO????
Also the biggest thing that I thought that came out of this issue, was the meeting of Wonder Girl with Supernova,, she expected him to recognize her… at first I was like ok…. Then when he flew away, she called him Kon-El….KON-EL???? That’s Conner!!! That s Superboy!!!.....
Already I have a bag of mixed emotions…. People don’t stay dead in DC, Green Arrow, Superman, Jason Todd… I really hope it is not Conner… That defeats the whole purpose of having someone dead.. It is suppose to change things..
As much as I miss Conner, (you miss him??) Yes I do, Why?? The duality aspect of it, he is a clone, of Lex Luthor and Superman… That has to mess with your head, knowing that you are from both.. I loved when Conner went mad, because you know it was going to happen down the line… He was very interesting character, along with nightwing,, the thought of having to live the shadow of greatness appeals to me.
So far 52 has been winning me over week after week. Are all the stories great? Nope… but it’s a story that I need to know…
A year without Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman,….

Captain America #21


Ahhh what I waited for, for so long… Cap and Bucky back again… I was never really a fan of Caps, till this Vol came out… and I began reading the Ultimate’s.. So this whole take cap has been really great.
This issue continues the arc of Cap in jolly ol England..Hunting down Bucky, and finally they team up. Cap said it himself, it felt right..
I love the fact that Bucky pulled a Batman at the end, he wasn’t ready to face Steve yet, and he wasn’t ready to comfront the demons. But we know he is coming around, he’s talking to fury… I think it’s a matter of time, and Cap and Bucky will team up again… Cap with a side kick again?? I don’t think he will become a permant side kick, i sees him as a Nightwing, connected but independent…
I have to give props to Brubaker, he’s doing a nice run on Capt..

Martian Manhunter #2


I have to say MM is becoming a fav on my pull list. There are others!!!!!
Now the big mystery is how they came here, and how did they survive from a decaying planet…
Is it me or do I keep hearing the voice of MM from the Justice League cartoon in my head when I read his thoughts lol…
Don’t have much to say, but I like it a lot….

Green Lantern #13



What did I say…. No one stays dead in DC..
Hal, one of the people who came back from the dead, discovers that a lot of the GL he thought he killed while he was parallax were actually being used to power the giant man hunters.. And they been in captive all the while..
Superboy Prime made an appearance, still in his cage of GL power and the red sun.. And I guess he likes to hang out in his birthday suit.
I have a feeling this won’t be the last time we see superboy prime, he is bound to escape…. Bound to.. Well I think he will…and I wonder if the Sinestro Corps will have anything to do with that.. He is recruiting; he is building his own army..


In brightest day, in blackest night
No evil shall escape my sight
Let those who worship evil's might
Beware my power, Green Lantern's light!
