Secret Origins #8
Dick Grayson, Animal Man, Katana.
Things I liked: nice recap of Dick's life. The Katana story was also good.
Things I didn't like: Animal Man was forgettable. That's too bad, it was a good series.
Robin Rises Alpha #1
I don't like Damian with super powers.
Things I liked: Alfred is the best.
Things I didn't like: Dick should have been there.
Red Hood and the Outlaws Annual #2
It's weird reading a Christmas story in February.
Things I liked: it was at least imaginative.
Things I didn't like: easy death.

Batman Annual #3
Such a good Joker story.
Things I liked: the Joker knows how to make friends.
Things I didn't like: would've liked to have seen Harley in her original outfit.

Superman/Wonder Woman #14
Ugh. Magog.
Things I liked: OK, maybe their relationship means something.
Things I didn't like: Wonder Star was bad. Really bad.
Batman Eternal #38
That was wrapped up quickly.
Things I liked: he has lots of gadgets but he doesn't need to use them.
Things I didn't like: inconsistent art.
Future's End #34
I don't care about this group.
Things I liked: Cash is still the most intriguing character.
Things I didn't like: Composite Batman/Joker is still dumb.
Batman #37
Still saying it's an hallucination.
Things I liked: I love watching the story unfold.
Things I didn't like: wish the Bat continuity was more consistent.
Batman and Robin #37
Very touching splash panel near the end.
Things I liked: Batman kicks ass.
Things I didn't like: had to die, huh?
Justice League #37
Lex's virus makes no sense to me.
Things I liked: the Batman/Superman team is always fun to follow.
Things I didn't like: but Power Ring isn't a meta.
Teen Titans #5
Pills that give powers are always fun.
Things I lie: untrusting Tim is the best.
Things I didn't like: so if the pills are different every time, why did they have the same powers?

Multiversity: Thunderworld Adventures
It's classic Captain Marvel!
Things I liked: Captain Marvel Junior knows exactly how to defeat Sivanna's daughter.
Things I didn't like: I want more and I know I won't get it.
Batman/Superman #17
It's Lois, isn't it?
Things I liked: the way Batman approached this problem was very well written. I'm quite enjoying this character.
Things I didn't like: why hasn't Lois already been targeted. She's been Superman's girlfriend forever.
Batman Eternal #37
I'm not quite sure how Selena managed to become a crime lord, but I guess it makes sense.
Things I liked: she at least has plans. That's more than can be said of most of Gotham's criminals.
Things I didn't like: the art was very inconsistent.

Sensation Comics #5
Why is Superman on the cover?
Things I liked: it was a very Diana thing to do.
Things I didn't like: Wonder Woman on Apokolips is wrong. So wrong.
Wonder Woman #37
I wanted Donna back, but not like this.
Things I liked: she does have a lot on her plate.
Things I didn't like: Diana looks way too young.
Red Hood and the Outlaws #37
Ollie is a dick.
Things I liked: this is who Roy is. I'm glad.
Things I didn't like: I hope Ollie follows him. I don't think he will, but he should.

Future's End #33
When is this over again?
Things I liked: not much. This was a blah entry. Except for Cole. Him I feel for.
Things I didn't like: Madison is whiny, Fifty Sue is dumb and S.H.A.D.E is worse.
Batgirl #37
The social media thing is an interesting take.
Things I liked: determination. That's her character.
Things I liked: no drag queen can pull off Batgirl convincingly.
Batman Eternal #36
Vicki knows Batman well.
Things I liked: Harper's growing on. I'd forgotten she was around and now I think I missed her.
Things I didn't like: it seems too big to be the Riddler.
Justice League United #7
I still don't know where this is going.
Things I liked: some of the new Legion costumes are so much better.
Things I didn't like: the interaction between the characters often seems forced.

Future's End #32
I'd forgotten about this part of the story.
Things I liked: Plastique and Terry are so cute together.
Things I didn't like: Madison is so whiny.

Grayson #5
I'm really enjoying this series.
Things I liked: no matter what, he's still him.
Things I didn't like: not knowing how they got there.
Detective Comics #37
It's not a good year for Batman.
Things I liked: Bruce time is very appropriate.
Things I didn't like: blowing up Wayne Tower too?
Green Arrow #37
Diggle works in Green Arrow, not sure about Felicity.
Things I liked: at least they know some of the connections.
Things I didn't like: I don't think Hal is allowed on Earth right now.
Future's End #31
Poor Tim. Too many funerals.
Things I liked: nice send off for Ronnie.
Things I didn't like: Madison is a bit whiny.
Future's End #30
So the love between Scott and Barda is dead, huh?
Things I liked:not a great issue to be honest.
Things I didn't like: trying to tug on heartstrings that they didn't build.
Secret Origins #7
The Flash, Huntress and Superboy.
Things I still liked. Glad it's still Kon. I didn't like Jon.
Things I didn't like: Superboy's was another one where they try to continue the story from a cancelled series.
Batman Eternal #35
I know he'll get out of this.
Things I liked: Bard has quite the plan.
Things I didn't like: where's the Batman fail safe?

Batman Eternal #34
Hmmm... I know he'll survive this because, well, Batman Eternal, but this is a blow.
Things I liked: Tommy's playing the long game.
Things I didn't like: I hope they're distancing Batman and Wayne Enterprises, otherwise the federal government taking over is disturbing.
