Review
DC has always had a problem trying to get me hooked on their titles outside of Batman.

If you haven’t read them yet be sure to read and comment on my Ultimatum #5 and Ultimatum: Spider-Man Requiem #2 reviews now up over at Rokk’s Comic Book Revolution.

Now it looks like my pull list for this week is dominated by Marvel as I won’t be getting any DC titles this week.

While I haven’t done a preview for the week in a while I have decided to start previewing the week ahead but with an added wrinkle of adding any DVD/Blu-rays, manga, movies, and video games I get, watch, or rent that are released that week along with the comics.

Green Lantern #44

Review
After going through two arcs were it felt as though Johns was phoning it in we finally get a good solid effort by Johns on Green Lantern.
