I've read just IC#6 so far, and my brain is going MEEP real loud.

I hated the artwork in Nightwing this month.

I suppose we're getting the same artists next month?

I hated the Nightwing art, too, as well as whoever drew Timmay in IC.

In NW, I loved Alfred's "Richard John Grayson! Get back into bed this instant!"

I have to think about IC for a while before I can formulate my thoughts.

Omigod! Teppy -- I loved that too!

Another IC tidbit - the other obituary on the page of the Daily Planet with Jack Drake's is for a baker named Jon Dough.

DX- Ouch.

Steph, that was the best part.

I am irked because Firestorm is a crossover this week with something I don't pull. Hrmph. Will have to send Paul on a mission of mercy tomorrow if he gets a break from working on the house (he has the day off).

JSA IC tie-in flowed into it well. If you're following IC, I suggest picking it up.

NW 99 I liked the same thing you liked, Steph. It has the potential to be interesting, but Grayson's better when she has more space to work with, so I expect this to be slightly choppy like most of her two-parters.

Gotham Central GC and BoP, neither of which had actual issues as part of War Games, have both done the best job of showing a post-War Games world. All the little character notes in GC were fabulous.

Green Arrow Winick was a touch in educator mode, which is I suppose is to be expected as it's an issue so close to his heart, though it weakens his storytelling through the first part. However, his characterizations were strong, especially in the second half, and I look forward to the next issue. Glad to see Connor brown again, amused at Connor being called WASPy, given that he's a mixed-race Buddhist and all that.

LotDK, no thoughts other than eh, why should I care? It's not grabbing me.

Christ, and I still have THREE books left to read.

On IC#6, I think we're being faked out again - how could Ray have been strangling Jean and also be on the phone with her? Did he hire someone to do the stangling so he could rescue her? If so - LAME! If he strangled her and then went into the phone so he could come out of the phone - LAMER! Is there someone else who could have gotten into Sue's brain like Atom could?

Frank, the only other people that I can think of in the DC universe are Jean Loring (she shrank with Atom in the first issue, and has access to all his stuff), and Shrinking Violet of the Legion (who's currently having her continuity frelled with again in the 31st century).

DX, are there any types who can absorb powers, temporarily?
