The Spotlight...
- FEB090159 BATMAN BATTLE FOR THE COWL THE UNDERGROUND #1 $2.99
When Batman's away, the maniacs will play!
The Battle for the Cowl tie-ins continue as Gotham City descends into chaos, unaware that the caped crusader's sacrifice in Final Crisis resulted in something much more bizarre than death! "Underground" serves up the action on the street, delving into life on the streets of Gotham City, where any nightmarish possibility is sure to be played out if not for the intervention of few. Hard to expect a lot based on the previous tie-ins, but any insight into the Gotham rogues is usually sure to provide moments of intrigue.

- FEB092492 DARK REIGN CABAL DKR $3.99
The Cabal (formerly known as the "Dark Illuminati") is the driving force between Marvel's banner inclusive shift in status quo, Dark Reign. Led by Norman Osborn, the group consisting of Dr. Doom, Sub-Mariner, Loki, The Hood, and Emma Frost, are one of the more intriguing developments in recent Marvel Universe activity. This anthology special gives unfamiliar fans a chance to overspend on an additional liason with the villains, meeting each on their own terms in a series of anthological shorts. Ed Brubaker, Matt Fraction, and other contributors are sure to move issues, but honestly, I wouldn't expect much. Non-essential reading from Marvel's newest approach to crossover events -- an entire line of tie-ins.

- OCT080095 FINAL CRISIS LEGION OF THREE WORLDS #4 (OF 5) $3.99
The long, long, loooooong awaited, second-to-last issue of the last peripheral Final Crisis tie-in is finally here! Like most of the '08/'09 event; Legion of Three Worlds is positively begging to be featured on the Infinite Wars. Packing in as many characters as he can; Geoff Johns is up to his old tricks, consolidating the varying approaches to the Legion of Superheroes in a way that makes the group seem so much more accessible than ever before. Part of bridging the gap to the heroes of the thirty-first century comes from the appearance of much-loved (and previously absent) heroes, including now resurrected Bart Allen and Superboy, as well as the bridging star, Superman, whose adventures with the group in Johns' recent Action Comics stint provide additional connective tissue. This really has been a spectacular series, and despite a heavy pricetag and lengthy delays, has been well worth it. Colour me converted! Fans of Green Lantern, Adventure Comics, and Blackest Night, might also like to take a peek at the series for a few extra (subtle) bonuses to those series! PLUS -- Superboy-Prime plot twists!

- JAN090203 GREEN LANTERN #40 $2.99
The War of Light heats up with the introduction of the untapped power of the Orange spectrum -- avarice! Commanding the power of greed is a creature powerful enough to have once quarantined an entire sector of space! Geoff Johns continues his midas run, building the mythology of the light spectrum without any of the worrying pitfalls of a repetitive and weakened mythology. Larfleeze, the titular "Agent Orange," has been revealed as the sole Orange Lantern, commanding a Corps made up of construct doppelgangers of the victims whose life and identity he has stolen. The most intriguing part of this story won't just be the consequences of aggression expressed by the Guardians of the Universe, but how Hal Jordan's inevitable possession of an (the only?) Orange ring will come to fruition!
