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.

Action Comics #877 - DC
Andrew Robinson does the cover of this book. I'm not thrilled with it, but . . the interior art is awesome. Sidney Teles does the art and it looks fantastic. He really draws some great action scenes. Last issue Christopher ended up on Lois' doorstep with Thara. They just got done fighting Ursa at the Fortress, and she stabbed Thara with a Kryptonite soaked knife. Lois calls in Dr Light to help them out. She uses her light powers to bombard her with photons that replicate solar light. She wants to give her Kryptonian immune system a jump-start. After she's stabilized and resting Christopher takes off for the Fortress to make sure that Ursa isn't doing anything she shouldn't. Now, here's where the problem comes in. General Lane has been tracking Dr Light. So of course he tracked her right to his daughter's apartment. He's also the one that prompted the order banning all Kryptonians from the planet. So when his satellites pick up 2 at her house, he's a bit concerned. But all he's got is a picture of Thara. Christopher he tracks in action as he flies back to the fortress. While there, I think he talked Ursa into going back to New Krypton. He knows that she and Zod have sleeper agents around the planet, and he explains that she's jeopardizing them by being here. Which . . I guess is what we see on the final page. This couple has just robbed a bank, but when they go out the door the cops already have the bank surrounded. They just stand there . . and start blasting them with their eyes. Greg Rucka wrote this story. I thought he did a fantastic job. I really liked this whole issue . . well, except for the cover. It didn't even really have anything to do with the story. I think Nightwing and Flamebird, Christopher and Thara, are a great addition to this title. Also, I can't wait to see what General Lane is going to do with all of this information.
