Green Lantern #49
December 26th, 2009 | By Timothy Callahan
Ed Benes comes in as John Stewart goes all military on a bunch of Black Lanterns. Unfortunately, it's the worst issue of the series so far.

December 11th, 2009 | By Chad Nevett
What happens when you take a character that embodies all that’s bad about superhero comics in the ‘90s and give him his own book? It’s bad. Surprise!

"Final Crisis: Legion of 3 Worlds" finally crosses the finish line, but it's easy to forgive with such a satisfying conclusion.
Blackest Night: Tales of the Corps #1
July 15th, 2009 | By Greg McElhatton
"Blackest Night: Tales of the Corps" tackles two familiar Lanterns and one new addition, but these origin stories don't quite spark enough interest.
Booster Gold #22
July 11th, 2009 | By Timothy Callahan
This Booster Gold arc is old-school fun, but the Blue Beetle isn't even that.

Justice Society of America #25
April 5th, 2009 | By Timothy Callahan
A throwdown with the (Black) Adam's Family that looks great but suffers from a weak ending.
Battle for the Cowl: Oracle: The Cure #1
March 31st, 2009 | By Greg McElhatton

Dan Jurgens's first storyline comes to a conclusion and shows promise for more to come.
Superman #685
February 26th, 2009 | By Greg McElhatton
If the latest issue of "Superman" is supposed to make readers excited about "Superman: World of New Krypton," it has a curiously flat way of going about it.

February 20th, 2009 | By Greg McElhatton
Tony Bedard finishes up his main story well enough, but the end of the series itself arrives a little too abruptly.

"Last Rites" winds down and so does this title. The final issue of "Nightwing" attempts to tie a bow on the adventures of the former Boy Wonder.

December 10th, 2008 | By Doug Zawisza

JSA Kingdom Come Special: Magog #1
November 21st, 2008 | By Greg McElhatton

November 5th, 2008 | By Timothy Callahan
Text-heavy and dripping with cliché, Tucci's Sgt. Rock has little chance to escape the Kubert shadow.
