Roxxon Presents: Thor sounded like a fun idea in theory: a self referential parody comic poking fun at corporate messaging...but it fell really flat. I could sort of see what Ewing wanted to do with the issue but as much as I like him I just don't think he's a skilled enough writer to pull off this bit of metafiction. Props to Greg Land for being able to make fun of himself though. yeah I picked it up and was disappointed

Superman #13. part 2 of the Brainiac arc. I am loving this DC superstars idea of a new creative team with each arc. I love that you could feel Superman's anger and frustration. This looks like it will be a classic I almost never read modern Superman comics but I thought House of Brainiac sounded like it might be good. I’m enjoying it so far!

Williamson's whole Superman run has been pretty awesome, definitely well worth checking out.

Helen of Wyndhorn continues to be interesting, the pacing is slow and the modern day framing scenes don't seem to add anything but the promise of a fictional world bleeding into the "real" world is interesting I'm looking forward to seeing it play out.

- Batman/Superman World's Finest #26
I've been catching up with this title on DC Infinite so decided to add it to my pull list. For yes, as you all have been saying for quite awhile now, very entertaining with great art.
- Jay Garrick the Flash #6
This mini has been very good and fun, Judy is a blast (sorry, Boom) and a worthy addition to the Flash mythos.

Ran out to the LCS yesterday and picked up my stuff for the week... Read a bunch of it already, Helen of Wyndhorn is an interesting read from King with gorgeous art by Bilquis Evely, ish#2 took a while to move things forward but I do like where the story is going, Blue Book is fun UFO conspiracy stuff, Nightwing was fun, Titans enjoyable and I'm digging House of Brainiac so far. Catwoman is interesting, but I started mid-arc, but I want to go back to the start of that arc because I dig it. I enjoyed World's Finest, but not as much as some here. I'm not a big fan of 5th dimension imps in any form, so bringing a whole host of them is not really my jam. Waid and Mora craft a good story with it, but their presence limits my enjoyment of it. I'm waiting to see where King goes with WW, it started strong, but has drug a bit in the middle. -M
