The Quick and the Read #8 – More comic book reviews so soon? You gotta be kidding me…

Here we are for another installment of comic book reviews that everyone has already commented on to death.? I realized that I had missed writing reviews and found the last installment therapeutic, so I made an effort to write up some more.? With the book gearing up again, I definitely need the practice.

Batman #678 – Morrison’s “Batman R.I.P.” story is getting freakier by the second, but I have to say that I am enjoying it, even though he is messing with Batman. I just love how he is sneaking in all of those classic pieces of Batman history that were at one time wiped out by the first Crisis.? I look forward to reading this title every month.

Final Crisis: Rouges’ Revenge #1 of 3 – Just another example of the quality comics that I expect from Geoff Johns.? Really good stuff that makes me wish Johns was back on the Flash, but I will settle for him taking over the Legion J? You listening DC??? Seriously, I really loved this first issue.? I am looking forward to the rest of the series.

Justice Society of America #17 – Once again, Johns wows me with his writing skill.? Not many writers can have this many characters to deal with and give them all such distinct personalities.? ? This is another title that I look forward to every month, and the homage to heroes past makes this one of my true favorites to read.? I highly recommend it.

Batman #1-3 – I am really torn on this series so far.? The story is interesting, but I have never really cared for Kelley Jones’ art.? I don’t hate it, but I don’t really like it that much either.? I doubt that I will hang around for 12 issues.

Tangent: Superman’s Reign #2-5 – I never read any of the Tangent stuff the first time around.? For whatever reason it never interested me.? I got the first issue of this series out of curiosity, and I have to say it is pretty good.? The history back up stories have been a good read as well.? I am glad that I stuck around.

Green Lantern Corps #26 – Peter Tomasi has really surprised me since he started writing this title.? He has been one of the few that I have seen that has been able to write the Green Lantern Corp since their rebirth a few years ago.? This issue was really good, and this is another title that I look forward to reading each month.
