R.E.B.E.L.S. #10Andy Clarke is one of the best artists working in superhero comics today. And while this isn't a great series, it's better than you might expect.

Batman/Doc Savage Special #1A typical team-up special that follows the format to a tee, which is disappointing from a writer of Brian Azzarello’s skill.

Detective Comics #858As though I needed to develop a man-crush on a comic book artist. This issue is crush-inducing, so read at your own risk.

World's Finest #1The DC Universe has frequently embraced the concept of legacy, frequently using old names in new ways to keep a brand alive or to spawn new ideas. "World's Finest" returns from the idea bin with a fresh team-up and a load of fun.

Superman: Blackest Night #3This sidebar of the "Blackest Night" saga wraps with the heroes being heroic and evil slinking off into the shadows. Of course it also points back to the main "Blackest Night" title.

R.E.B.E.L.S. Annual: Starro the Conqueror #1When Grant Morrison wrote "JLA," Starro was one of the first characters he pitched across his League. In doing so, Morrison elevated the character of Starro. Bedard builds upon that elevation and delivers a great read.

Justice League: Cry for Justice #4"Cry for Justice" continues on, with less crying, but the same amount of unnecessary torture, infighting, and grumpiness. Jay Garrick and the Shade appear to make things a little more interesting.

Justice League of America #37This issue is the last issue before the much-anticipated creative team of James Robinson and Mark Bagley climb aboard, but that's not the entire story. The JLA (sort of) appears here too.
