Lois Lane #12 (of 12) (DC)
By: Greg Rucka, Mike Perkins, Andy Troy, Simon Bowland

The end of one of the first series I ever reviewed is here.  To me, this 12-issue maxi was perfect, and the end gave me a feeling of satisfaction and it made me smile it made me chuckle once or twice, a hit of sadness, but I was pleased with how it all came to an end.

This series has taught me that I need to find more Rucka/Perkins series because they hit this one out of the park. As Rucka hinted on his Comics and Beer interview, there is the possibility for other stories in the near future, and I hope this possibility actualizes itself.

What should you do? Read this run, it's a prolific story for so many reasons on so many levels.  Go pick up all 12, or a trade, it is really really good!

Batman #94 (DC)
By: James Tynion IV, Guillem March, Rafael Albuquerque, David Baron, Clayton Cowles

This is the conclusion to the "their dark designs" arc. I liked how this had several bits of micro resolutions throughout.  I liked the opening pages that got us some more back-story on the designer and how long he's been preparing for his actions in Gotham.  We see a frank discussion about whether or not Lucius can be to Bruce what Alfred was.  We see a strong emotional connection between Batman and Catwoman.

Holy crap, the Joker war then gets instantly turned up to 11!  I can't believe there are some folks who don't like what Tynion is doing on Batman!

What should you do? I really feel like this is one of the best arcs of Batman I've read, and it may rival the court of owls...which is my favorite.  Either way, It gives me a lot of faith that Tynion is bringing the heat when the Joker War drops soon!

The Flash #757 (DC)
​By: Joshua Williamson, Rafa Sandoval, Jordi Tarragova, Hi-Fi, Steve Wands

This might be the angriest I've ever seen Barry Allen.  As he continues to chase the Reverse flash, and attempts to figure out Thwayne's game his frustration continues to build! We have a new (to this arc) villain pop up out of nowhere, and I laughed (mostly because most of the Flash's rogues make me laugh). But I think #758 is going to be explosive!

This book may not make it into my top 5 for the week, but it is in definitely no danger of falling off the pull list.
