So who was it that betrayed the rest of the team?  Well, surprisingly it was JLA-stalwart J’onn Jones The Martian Manhunter.  But why would he do such a thing?
Well, needless to say there was something else going on.  The En’tarans had managed to bring Alanna back from her near-death state and had discovered the lingering [...]

With the finale of Strange Adventures DC have now moved Captain Comet and Adam Strange over to the R.E.B.E.L.S. book.
The title is new to me, but its been getting a lot of acclaim, and with soaking up these two characters (especially Adam Strange), and a well-publicised upcoming Blackest Night tie-in, it seems obvious to me [...]

I haven’t really blogged much about Strange Adventures in a while.  I did mention the Comet vs Comet solicit back in June, but other than that, the last issue I mentioned was issue #3.
Sadly, its because the series really has gone off the boil for me.   The abundance of versions of Synnar who keep [...]

Just a quick note regarding the other solicit that really caught my attention.  Strange Adventures #7.

Some good new comics this week along with Flash: Rebirth, the first of which is the long-awaited Power Girl #1.
Its no secret I’ve been looking forward to this. Power Girl’s been a fun character for a while, probably shining most recently in her pre-Infinite Crisis mini-series, that re-established her Earth-2 origin.
The series picks up [...]

Most people this week will be going bananas over New Krypton #1, but to be honest, I don’t think I can really afford to commit to a storyline that’ll be going through the Superman titles for the next year. Once the titles decouple a bit I’ll maybe pick up some of the books (I [...]

Being a big fan of DC’s non-GL cosmic stuff (in addition to the GL stories obviously ), Strange Adventures is a series I’m really looking forward to, following the ongoing story of Captain Comet and Adam Strange after the events of the Holy War which saw Rann’s population forced into hiding on the [...]

The May solicits are up at Newsarama, and there’s some interesting things in store that month.
First up, it looks like there’s no issue of GL.  Well that sucks, especially with them building up the Blackest Night at the moment.  I daresay the issue will be more than worth the wait, but I hope its the [...]
