I spend a lot of time and money buying and reading comics. Most of the time I'm happy with my choices, sometimes not. I'm hoping,that with my reviews on what I've read, I might spare someone else dissapointment. I'll read anything, but I can't afford everything. If there's something you'd like for me to read, let me know. If you take the time to read this, please, take the time to let me know what you think. I may not agree with you, or you may not agree with me. But, so what. That's life.

Justice League of America #8 - DC
This book is just awesome. And it gets better and better every issue. Brad Meltzer is apparently the perfect writer for this series, because each book is better than the last. He has a perfect grasp of all these character's unique personalities. So his interactions between them are flawless. This issue Shane Davis does the artwork. If you saw the Mysteries in Space mini series, then you know that he's a force to be reckoned with. Every page in this book looks fantastic. And the frame flow is nearly perfect. That alone, besides the awesome cover by Michael Turner, makes it a must have book. Seriously! I can't stress that enough. This series is incredible. And to even take it up a notch, this issue we have guest stars with the JSA. Even the Legionnaires are in on this one. Kind of. We start out with some casual gettogethers. Some teamwork and strategy building games. But then a mystery comes to the forefront that is going to force the teams to work together. Batman discovered last issue, that the man he captured, Trident, was actually Karate Kid from the future. It takes some time to break through some psychic blocks that have been place on him, but when Mr. Terrific starts talking about Starman, it's like it opens the floodgates. Finally with the help of Wonder Woman's lasso, they make some progress. It seems that there are 7 of them total, hidden somewhere around the planet. Since they're in the wrong time, they've decided that they must split in to 2 teams and head off around the globe to find them all. There's also a page where someone has gone back to 1948 to retrieve the Ultra-Humanite, but we don't really know who that is yet. I really just can't say enough about this book. It thrills me month after month. Thank You!!
