With Superman Confidential being new and Batman Confidential soonly replacing Legends of the Dark Knight, buzz was high at the comic store about how they'd be; Batman's previews look nice, and this week was the first issue for Superman. And what a first issue it is.
Tim Sale's artwork is a personal favourite of mine, and I'm glad I've finally mastered the art of the scanner for it. He makes Superman just look... more super.
( And Clark fills out a suit nicely... )
The other really impressive book this week on my sub list was Justice League of America #3; but that's kinda a given, I'm really all about the direction of things. It starts out with Black Lightning facing off with Dr. Impossible and Trident; Trident isn't so much of a challenge, but his partner is another story.
And Red Tornado, still coping with his humanity, gets a visit from the big man himself.
( I. Liked. That. Disc! )
I'm so digging Ed Benes's artwork. And Dr. Impossible. And bringing the Stranger into it? Very nice.
