Wonder Woman: The Blue Amazon: There's probably not much point reading this is you haven't read the first two books in the trilogy. Though if you've seen the movie this one is based on you might have better luck. I was familiar with Metropolis and Nosferatu, but I didn't have a clue about Blue Angel, so I had to rely on the previous two books in the series to figure out the plotline. Overall, it wasn't bad. It is definitely a McKeever book as far as the artwork goes, and if you can't handle the style, it isn't worth the effort. But the ending ties up the entire series neatly, and gives some hints as to where this Elseworld may be taking place. All in all, a nice tribute to German Cinema. 
Detective Comics #786: Strong detective work in this one, along with the usual fight sequence. And an interesting little touch at the end. Yeah, I liked it. And the back-up story is enough to make me want to buy the next issue... almost. 
Formerly Known As The Justice League #3: Roulette? Again? Didn't we just see her in JSA? Ok, on the one hand it's a neat way to get the members of the team fighting each other, on the other hand... Roulette and The House are just... silly. Oh wait, this book is just silly. Ok, I guess it's alright then. About standard, actually, when you think of it.
Still to review: Superman Birthright, Silken Ghost, and Scary Godmother. And then there's this week's books, which I haven't even started in on yet... but there's fifteen books on the list, not counting the Teen Titans Archive. Ouch.
