The Year of Comic Books in Review - Part Nine (September)

Two more for September, as an Elseworld that isn't an Elseworld makes my list, and another book makes its third appearance with its third issue.

Superman: Blood of my Ancestors was a classic Elseworlds tale with all the hallmarks of a good Elseworld... set in Krypton's past as actual events. Ok, looked at as a regular part of the Superman mythos, it's almost as silly as The Kents mini (in which Pa Kent's ancestor bears a striking resemblance to Clark), but as an Elseworld, the why I chose to read it, it's just fine.

The other high ranking book of the month is PS238. The issue introduced a boy who is completely normal. Which is really funny for this book. Check it out.

A special mention goes out to the Scary Godmother: Halloween Spooktakular DVD.

The nominees for September are: PS238 #3 and Superman: Blood Of My Ancestors.
