Here it is! Kind of a light week for me. Trinity, Booster Gold, GL, House of Mystery, World of New Krypton, Battle for the Cowl #2… Secret Six, Solomon Grundy, Titans. ---

Local Comic Book Store has severely annoyed me – this is the _third_ issue of GL where they’ve sold out in _hours_. After the second time, I had them start a pull list for me (can’t get there at noon, 'cause I have a _job_); they forgot that, too. Asked if anyone thought to _increase their orders_ since they’ve now sold out three issues running. _blank stares_ Oy. Was glad to see some bits on kryptoforming in **New Krypton**. Even if they’re all powered-up Kryptonians, it didn’t seem like a fantastic place to live if it’s all sterile and airless. Also: note how the Guardians appear to be capable of rational decisions _here_; apparently its only in GL books where they’re raving morons. **Booster Gold** still fun, although the main story seemed a bit pro-forma this time. **Battle for the Cowl**. Yeah, knew _that_ was coming, and I guess they need a Bat Family tie-in for Blackest Night. Still… ---
