As to the Blackest Night challenge, I wholeheartedly agree with you that things like "Light Up" and "Rainbow Rodeo" are ham handed to the point of absurdity, but in totality I have to come out in support of Blackest Night so far. It is what it is...good, universe-spanning superhero action; and done well. Is it a classic moment in comics story-telling? Not really. But has it been an entertaining yarn? Absolutely.<br /><br />I'm off to check out some Ampersands now.

Not reading it and have no interest. A friend of mine loaned me some of the run-up books (various GL titles) over the summer so that I could get in on the ground floor of this big huge important DC universe shattering event. Meh. I didn't like how they were written and couldn't imagine shelling out money every Wednesday for an event that had titles I didn't like at its nexus.<br /><br />Say what you will about Frank Miller's descent into bad dialogue and right wing insanity, but his commentary about Hal Jordan in "All Star Batman and Robin the Boy Wonder" is perfect.<br /><br />My pick of the week for every category is the second issue of the new "Criminal" arc. Except maybe cover of the week. Evie's pick is both an excellent cover and evidence of the comics industry existing in its own little bubble. That's a pretty ambitious cover for a comic, despite the fact that books and magazines have had covers that "designey" (for lack of a better word) for decades.<br /><br />My girlfriend's pick for cover of the week is "Beasts of Burden" #3.
