I liked ‘Tec #952 well enough, but I have to agree with a lot of you guys: Bats doesn’t look like the world-class martial artist we know and love. I get it—Shiva’s amazing—but she shouldn’t make Bruce look like Paul Blart.
Red Hood remained one of my favorites with a tight one-and-done look at Artemis’s past. As much as I can’t stand Guy Gardner, I enjoyed Hal and the GLC immensely, and Action Comics #975 was the easy stack-topper for me. Also, don’t tell anyone, but I haven’t read JLA yet. How was your week?
Batgirl and the Birds of Prey #8
Yes, there are worse books out there, but that doesn’t mean we should settle for mediocrity – especially when this title could be outstanding

Detective Comics #952
Despite the fact that Tynion chose to step on the toes of the past in his latest chapter for Detective Comics, I actually found his alterations to be quite tasteful and respectful.

Detective Comics, Vol. 6: Icarus
Like Icarus himself, this collection flies high and falls just short of touching the sun.

Gotham Academy: Second Semester #7
If you’re one of the individuals who was reading Gotham Academy and gave up on it, you need to get back in here right now.

Justice League/Power Rangers #3
The context of the team-up works, everyone is getting along in a way that makes sense, and the Justice Leaguers are just fun to watch as they zip around battling great krakens all over the world.

Justice League of America #2
I can only hope that it’s a temporary stumble, but considering how negatively this issue impacts the foundation of the arc, I can’t imagine future issues being much better.

Red Hood and the Outlaws #8
The interactions between Jason and Artemis are as excellent as they’ve been throughout the series, and the fleshing out of Artemis adds a welcome layer to her character without blotting out the qualities that have made her so likable thus far.

Suicide Squad #13
I can’t give too many details of this issue without giving away spoilers, but know that the execution is nearly perfect as far as the narrative is concerned.

Titans #8
Abnett and Booth deliver again, and Titans #9 sets itself up for a follow-up issue that should be high-energy and action packed.
