A Mother passing by her son’s bedroom was astonished to see that his bed was nicely made and everything was picked up.
Then she saw an envelope, propped up prominently on the pillow that was addressed to “Mom” With the worst premonition she opened the envelope with trembling hands and read the letter.

I think I’ll do things differently this week.
Here’s what I’m NOT listening to:

That damned “Delilah” song. We get it. White guys are lonely and whiny. Now shut up and go back to your cubicle.

Writers Geoff Johns and Richard Donner (Director of Superman: The Movie) and artist Eric Powell have created a nifty tale here of Superman trying to rescue Pa Kent from Bizarro.

Written by Jimmy Palmiotti with art by Phil Noto, issue 1 of this 5 issue mini starts off with a Female Fury named Maelstrom who wants to become the queen of the evil ruler Darkseid and plans to do it by killing Superman. When she shows up on Earth she first encounters Supergirl and the aftermath of the battle takes a tragic turn. Pick this up. It apparently takes place before all of the Final Crisis crap, is devoid of excess continuity and has great art. Grade: A
YES WE CAN!
....'nuff said.
Totally scare the shit out of your neighbors and then take their candy! Bwahahahaha!
Wow! Just freakin' awesome and if you are not onboard with all things Green Lantern related then you are missing out. Geoff Johns writes one heck of a tale here that formally introduces us to the Red Lantern Corps, rage powered individuals who are sure to give the Green Lantern Corps one hell of a time. Shane Davis pencils this issue and the guy is unbelievable. There's a splash page in this issue that rivals what Ivan Reis is doing in the main ongoing GL book. Buy this one! Grade: A+
So far I haven't cared much for this series. This is DC's big event book for 2008 and the big completion to their "Crisis Trilogy" started with Crisis on Infinite Earths in 1986 and continued with Infinite Crisis in 2006. This one has been a little hard to follow and frankly, a bit boring, but thankfully this issue kicks it up several notches.
Conflicted hitmen and a coked-up racist dwarf equals dark fun!
May 8, 2009 we get to go for a ride on the U.S.S. Enterprise one more time. Well, beam me up, Scotty...
Recently I've been completely engrossed in reading Batman RIP and all things Batman related. I saw this pic up ...
