Promising to be the final Long Halloween story (mmhmm, sure), and set the following Halloween after the events of the original series, Batman: The Long Halloween – The Last Halloween #1 returns writer Jeph Loeb with a rotating group of artists for a multi-part mystery for our Dark Knight Detective and plenty of cameos (this first issue offers plenty of both with Catwoman, Solomon Grundy, Two-Face, and more).

Supreme #2

Supreme Saturday takes us back to the early 90s. Published three years before Kingdom Come, Supreme #2 focuses on Supreme dealing with some unfinished business after his return to Earth (which he doesn’t believe has improved during his absence). Heading straight to the prison to murder the arch-nemesis who killed his friends and family, and still takes delight and pleasure in his actions, Supreme is held at bay by Heavy Mettle.

G.I. JOE: A Real American Hero #310

G.I. JOE: A Real American Hero #310

A middle issue in the ongoing Battle of Springfield arc, G.I. JOE: A Real American Hero #310 is most notable for Cobra Commander‘s plan working and the tied turning against the mutant Cobra army. However, seeing an opportunity to settle old grudges, Cobra Commander sends his stand-in after Baroness and Zartan (both of whom are more or less fighting on his side with the Joes to rebel the invaders). Shooting Baroness doesn’t fracture the alliance of the Joes and the Dreadnoks but may have repercussions as soon as next issue where both Zartan and Destro are concerned.

Spider-Man: Black Suit & Blood #2

Spider-Man: Black Suit & Blood #2

Another anthology issue offers three more stories of Spider-Man wearing the black suit which looks terrific in each of the stories presented here. Still new to the suit, in “The Edge of Rage” Spider-Man loses control with Morbius, beating him unconscious, and also later threatening Flash Thompson. We witness his recognition and shame for events but we also see the symbiote’s interest in Peter giving into his darker impulses.

Jenny Sparks #2

Jenny Sparks #2

The second issue of Jenny Sparks plays out mostly like the first. We get Jenny Sparks yanking the chain of another a core Justice Leaguer about the situation with Captain Atom, this time Superman, and then we get the Spirit of the 20th Century’s second go-round with the crazed super-hero with a god complex. It goes pretty much the same as the first (but still provides plenty of fun for the reader).
