Rapid Reviews - 25 June 2003 - Part II

Green Lantern #166: This is more like it. Green Lantern is back out in space, having cosmic adventures. Although some of it is truly odd, at least it's better than it's been. 3 1/2 starfish

JLA #82: Eh. This is just passable. Not as confusing as other storylines, but still annoying. 2 1/2 starfish

Astro City: Local Heroes #3: This issue just didn't click with me. It was good, it was better than a great many comics, but I didn't connect with it. It was a *shrug* issue for me. 3 1/2 starfish

An aside, there was a letter in the letter column of this issue that made my blood boil. Some complete idiot seemed to think that comic book superheroes shouldn't be allowed to stop abortion clinic bombings (even incredibly feminist and liberal superheroes like Winged Victory). I don't care what your view of abortion is, if you support clinic bombings you are a terrorist and hypocritical scumbag. I'm surprised Kurt bothered to respond to the murderous loser. You can't stop abortion with more death, and those that bomb clinics are only hurting their own cause. Folks like me, who hate abortion and have respect for life are pro-choice because of those "pro-life" killers.

Right, enough of my own high-horse... next week I'm supposed to get Amazing Spider-Man, Batman: Nevermore, Superman: Birthright, Formerly Known As The Justice League, JSA: All Stars, and Justice League Adventures.
