Action Comics #844 (spoilers)

[The Legend]

Written by Geoff Johns AND Richard Donner, with pencils by Adam Kubert.

Alot of folks hate the big blue, gay, jew icon-but not me.

Thanks to customs, I have to wait until Saturday for this (not a priority shipment, unless you're a geek).

Here's a preview from the sweet dudes at Newsarama.

I CAN'T F'N WAIT!!!

 

[The Legend]

Just finished reading it. Great stuff. Pretty intriguing. I don't know if its due to Donner co-scripting, but it had a "Widescreen" feel to it. Also got to see Supes in a more threatening light than usual. Tasty all 'round.

Recommended reading.

Mine will be sitting in my box at the shop, pining for me. Might make a trip tomorrow to pick it up.

Great issue.

 

[The Legend]

Just read #845. Even better than the last issue. Great villain reveal at the end. This was the best read for my week (next to Punisher: War Journal #1).

Thanks for reminding me about PWJ - just phoned up to get it added to my list. Apparently there's a black and white version as well which I'm getting.

Speaking of customs the latest shipment to the shop I buy from was held up because there was some sort of porcelain Star Wars gun in it which customs decided might be a banned replica. Idiots.

I almost got the B&W version. Seemed to suit the tone of the book alot better. The only copies at my LCS were in pretty cruddy nick though. I'll still grab it if I find one though. Very noir and nice looking. Ties into CW#5.
