goobergunchTwo weeks' worth since I was flying to Winnipeg last Wednesday....
Superboy: The Man of Tomorrow #4: Sorry, Kon, turns out your new friends are kind of evil. (The brainless clone was a nice touch.) And yeah, it really does have to suck getting transplanted into a post-Flashpoint reality that had left you behind.
The Amazing Spider-Man #924: It turns out you can overuse the word "dolt". Setting up Peter and Otto as mirrors is way more interesting if you're actually going to do something with it. (Also the Norman Osborn redemption plot still doesn't, like, make sense, but that's on the previous run.)
Knight Terrors: Action Comics #1 ("She's Got No Strings, Part One" / "The Stuff of Nightmares, Part One"): I will confess to being completely apathetic to the Power Girl nightmare sequence that was the first story. The second story worked for me, though, because it felt like an actual follow-up to the Cyborg Superman story we just got in regular issues of Action. Plus Cyborg Kon was actually pretty creepy.
