Worlds’ Finest #23
- Title: Worlds’ Finest #23
- Comic Vine: link
- Writer: Paul Levitz
- Artist: R. B. Silva
Discovering with the right hardware she can indeed open up a portal home, the latest issue of Worlds’ Finest centers around Power Girl doing just that. Selling off the rest of her company to make her gateway, revealing her super-powers to her employees, and throwing all caution to he wind, Karen Star starts the machine and… blacks out the entire city.
As Power Girl is busy trying to restore power to the city (even if she has to fight off the U.S. Military to do it), the blackout helps out a trio of robbers intent on stealing dangerous nuclear material from a reactor at M.I.T. which leads the Huntress to swing into the action.
Although I’m against Helena and Kara returning home to Earth-2, and less than thrilled with the return of Desaad teasing what will likely be a larger role in upcoming issues, Worlds’ Finest provides a healthy mix of both humor and action from the pair of kick-ass heroines that fans should enjoy. Worth a look.

Smallville Season Eleven: Lantern #2
- Title: Smallville Season Eleven: Lantern #2 (of 4)
- Comic Vine: link
- Writer: Bryan Q. Miller
- Artist: Marcio Takara
Just as Superman begins to get the hang of being the latest member of the Green Lantern Corps (a position he’s still trying to find a way to decline) thanks to the tutelage of John Stewart, the Earth is attacked by out-of-control Manhunters believing that some treaty between the Guardians’ former protectors and its current, less-robotic, group has been broken.
Along with cameo appearances by Salaak and Aya, Kilowog, and Ch’p (but sadly not G’nort) the comic also features Parallax as writer Bryan Q. Miller and artist Marcio Takara attempt to boil down the convoluted history of the Corps and make it fit inside the Smallville Universe.
The choice to have the Manhunters powered by yellow rings is an interesting one which offers Parallax the opportunity to send out rings for ring bearers of his own which will likely set-up an all-out ring slingin’ war in the latest mini-series remaining two issues. There’s also a B-story involving Prometheus who I’m really hoping this version of Ollie won’t have to kill in the name of “justice.” Worth a look.
