 Martian Manhunter back-ups? I may have a higher tolerance of elderly reader continuity porn, just seeing a little orange person calling themselves Zook thrills me to but. Tales of Metropolis, though, was pants.
I’ve been having a look around and various reviewers seem to love the weekly Detective Comics serial; I’m assuming they’re not paying for the things.
I was hoping for a better backup in Detective that would justify moving Fernando Blanco from Catwoman, where his work was stellar, to this. I don’t care for the story. Maybe people like it because of the speculation that the unnamed boy grows up to be one of the characters in the main story who at one point attacked the Gotham mayor, and is now locked up in Arkham Tower. So to the extent that it ties in, it may be at least justified, but that doesn’t make it good.
I had been predicting and hoping the backups in Action would spotlight what the other members of the Authority are up to. For instance, I doubt Enchantress is dead – we saw her kind of smashed underground, but nothing more. Midnighter and Apollo showed up at the end of the main feature in Action, but that could be a whole backup tale. I was not hoping for an unrelated Martian Manhunter story, and giving us more of the Warworld story would make it, for me, a worthwhile $1.00. (I wouldn’t be buying a Martian Manhunter book – but I am buying Action for Superman on Warworld, after all, so another $1.00 for 10 more pages of a story I am actually invested in would be fine, even actually good!) The Manhunter series finale will be in April, so there are 3 more parts.
Detective had a Huntress story that tied in to Detective. But there have been few backups worth the buck.
I looked up Zook since I didn’t remember – this is a little girl whose nickname was the name of a silver age imp? That’s cute, I guess. Zook has been rebooted in Infinite Frontier. Sounds good to me.
Also bought this just for the World’s Finest preview. Can I just say here how wonderful it is to have Mark Waid back on a regular DC title!?!?!? Yes, he has done some decent stuff for Marvel over the past decade or so, but, I’m sorry, Waid and DC just go together. He was there when I became a more serious collector in the mid-to-late 1990s, so knowing he is again writing for the company is just such a happy thing.
I’m with you, Brian, as great as Waid’s work has been elsewhere – Empyre and Daredevil, for example – DC is where he belongs. They should give him a Geoff Johns/Joshua Williamson ‘showrunner’ role.
I wonder if he’d like to write Supergirl.
Dig the wink wink drinks in mugs, and used-to-be secret door. Patrons more likely to hail from townships than boroughs, however, now that former owner Tim Robbins has moved on to other gigs. Mirrored bar and copper ceilings, plus velvet wallpaper that’s so fun when you’re wasted. Sexy speakeasy vibe, previously perfected by Lansky Lounge, always works. The heyday may be over, but still worth a peek.Yea, i know what you mean and tbh i am with Molly this season and defended her actions a whole lot this season, but i am with Issa on this one.

Issa is always the one to reach out first and now it's Molly's turn to reach out, just because she blew up at Issa's event and it was the wrong time and place for that.

I am with Molly in regards to her being rightfully upset with Issa for involving Andrew behind her back. But this time around she should have made the first step towards Issa, let alone to break her own patterns.

I felt for Issa in that restaurant scene. Her being triggered by seeing Molly on her phone, it would have triggered me too.I received a Master’s in Social Work 39 years ago. Later, I became a Licensed Independent Social Worker and a Licensed Marriage Family Therapist and have been in private practice since 1985. I often think of a friend named Kaye Sharpe, who was a founding member of the S.C. Association of Marriage and Family Therapists. She kept a sign in her office which said “Alterations”. A woman had rang her doorbell once looking for someone to alter her clothes only to find out Kaye specialized in alterations of people instead. She was in the business of helping people alter or modify their relationships. For many years, I was lucky enough to have her as was my mentor..BookJS is a Javascript library that can be included in HTML files to render the contents of the HTML to pages that can be printed to PDF using CSS Regions.

A senior ambulance official on the scene said the death toll might go as high as 50 in the riot, the most deadly in European professional soccer history. Of the 250 injured, at least 50 sustained serious injuries, the Red Cross said.
Many of the victims were trampled when crash barriers in the 70,000 capacity Heysel stadium collapsed, tearing down the concrete stands and sending fans pitching forward in a pile of struggling bodies, police and witnesses said.
Police broke up the clashes one hour after they began -- only to be attacked themselves by English fans hurling flying poles and other missiles.
In order to maintain calm, sporting officials agreed to allow the game -- pitting England's Liverpool team against Italy's Juventus team - to go on as scheduled but fighting erupted again before play could begin. Finally, police quieted the crowd and the championship began 1 hours late.
In London, Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher said Liverpool fans responsible for the riot brought shame to Britain.
'Those reponsible have brought shame and disgrace to their country,' Thatcher said.
The initial fracas erupted one hour before kickoff when Liverpool fans began hurling flag poles, beer cans and other projectiles at Juventus supporters, officials said. It was not immediately clear what caused the Liverpool fans to turn violent.
Some Juventus fans fought back while others tried to escape the assaults by climbing over high fences to reach the field. The two sides fought for almost an hour before the 700 police and 1,000 state troopers on duty separated the battling mobs, officials said.
English fans then turned on the police, who retreated under a barrage of missiles, police said.
As the fighting raged, paramedics set up an emergency field hospital in a parking lot from which they ferried the wounded and the dead to city hospitals. Dozens of fans were carried to safety either by their friends or on stretchers by the Red Cross.
After police restored calm and officials decided to allow the game to go on, a Belgian soccer official said Juventus 'at first refused' to play.
'We and all other league officials pleaded with them to avoid the enormous difficulties that would result from a cancellation of the match,' the official said.
Minutes later, the two team captains called on the crowd over the public address system to allow the game to be played.
But as the men called for calm, English fans stormed onto the field, throwing poles and sticks at police and tearing down steel barriers for use as missiles.
More wounded were carried off the field after the renewed fighting.
As players came onto the field -- surrounded by riot police with crash helmets and plastic shields -- the fighting continued until the field was cleared.
Then, the two teams posed for photographers and the game began.We offer solutions to the challenging tasks engine builders and racers face in the field... because we have faced them ourselves.
