Green Lantern #14

Green Lantern #14

An Absolute Power tie-in issue, Green Lantern #14 gives us both Alan Scott and Hal Jordan as prisoners in one of the Bureau of Sovereignty‘s facilities. The two are dealing with their incarceration differently. While Scott remains in his cell for the entire issue, playing chess with the Amazo robot who stole his power and contemplating whether or not it can be turned to his side, Hal breaks out and spends most of the issue attempting escape (which he eventually succeeds in doing thanks to a little magical help).

Supreme #1

Supreme Saturday takes us back to 1992 and the launch of Image Comics. I was never much of a fan of Youngblood or Savage Dragon, and while Spawn held some initial interest it eventually fell off of my reading list. However, there was one of the early Image titles that immediately caught my eye. Centered around the most powerful super-hero in the world returning after a 5o year absence, Supreme #1 introduces the heroes of the 90s with one from yesteryear. The first issue is mostly promise, some ultimately unfulfilled, with big questions left unanswered.

Scarlett #3

Scarlett #3

The suicidal heist teased in the last issue is delivered here as Scarlett infiltrates the impregnable facility and completes the assignment likely securing herself a spot within Arashikage. We get cameos from Storm Shadow and Jinx here fighting on another level of the facility and discussing the likelihood of Scarlett’s success, but this issue really does center around our title character kicking ass for several pages as she works her way down the facility, first through shark-infested waters, and later through a slew of security and mercenaries.

SHAZAM! #14

SHAZAM #14

Although Mary has successfully found Billy in the subway system, we don’t get an appearance by our Captain in this issue (except in the outside realm he resides between times Billy utters the magic word) despite a growing need for him the hero to appear. The Submen are invading our world, despite a captive Freddy Freeman‘s attempts to argue for peace by pretending to be the ruler of Earth, and without the Big Red Cheese to stop them what will happen to Fawcett City and the world?

Batman: Caped Crusader - Night of the Hunters

Following the events of the previous episode, Batman (Hamish Linklater) is now public enemy number one with Montoya (Michelle C. Bonilla) being put in charge of a new task force to take down the vigilante. She brings in Harleen Quinzel (Jamie Chung) for her take on Batman as well as stages fake muggings to bring him out of the shadows. When those fail, Flass (Gary Anthony Williams) and Bullock (John DiMaggio) decide on a more dangerous tactic that earns the ire of Gordon (Eric Morgan Stuart) but skewed public perception puts the crooked cops in charge of capturing Batman from this point on.
