This is another book with a fantastic creative team on it. Michael Green does the story, and Shane Davis and Matt Banning do the art. Shane Davis hasn't been around that long, but I'm telling you this guy is destined for greatness. I really liked him on the Mystery in Space mini series. But with Matt Banning on inks, his stuff is even better here. I mean, just look at that cover. Wow! This is chapter 2 of the story where Superman and Batman have decided to rid the Earth of all the Kryptonite. But as they're under the ocean, taking out a large deposit that just happens to be over the ruins of an ancient Atlantean city, Aquaman brings to their attention, "You're trying to clean . . the whole planet. What made you think anyone would want that? Except you. Didn't think of that, did you?" That kind of shuts both of them up. I also liked this issue that we got to see the return of Hiro. He's the new Toyman, the little teenage Asian boy. He offers his help in scrubbing the Earth of it's particulates. The Kryptonite dust as it were. He's a neat character. I think they're making a mistake by under-utilizing him. But, that's just my opinion. This has been a great title since it's inception. And with the new story-arc, and creative team, it looks like it's going to maintain that excellence for quite some time. Truly. . the World's Finest.
