    A Titans tale of two teams 0

         I have to let all of you know that I have removed and added this book on my pull list.  I swore that I was done before the JLA/JSA crossover began and ended up getting that and I have to say I did not really like it much.  I got really sick of the JLA issues (the JSA issues were much better) and all the dialogue boxes.  I like them if used properly but the Robinson run has taken them to a whole new level and that isn't a good thing.  So why am I buying and reading JLA #49 well I kind of...

    Review: Justice League of America #49 0

    After running in to their old foe, the Bogeyman, Donna Troy and Jade are thrust into a nightmarish dreamscape where they have to confront their worst fears and memories. The Good The notion of superheroes having to battle abstract living nightmares of their worst fears is a familiar trope... so I really enjoyed how Robinson turned the story on its head in this issue. Donna Troy's been around the bend long enough and gone through enough hard times to sniff out an obvious trap like this. I loved...

    Taking "Mind Rape" To a Whole New Level 0

    The Good: Wow, I have absolutely no idea who The Boogeyman was but holy shit, I will already never forget him. Robinson manages to write one of the most seriously messed up villains outside of Batman. Boogeyman seriously makes your skin crawl. The whole transition from backstory to battle, to burst of inspiration is one long amazing scene. The into of Boogeyman right before shit hits the fan makes it really obvious, but this is one case where it works brilliantly. Jade's complete mental breakdow...

    JLA: The Bogeyman 0

    This issues spotlights Donna Troy and (to a lesser extent) Jade as they start to think about life following the events of the last year or so. (Cry For Justice, Blackest Night and the Black Lanterns and Brightest Day and The Starheart) The issue sees the pair building their friendship as they fight one of Donna's old Teen Titans foes, the Bogeyman.  The Good I'd like to start by saying that I've enjoyed the recent Justice League of America issues a fair bit since the new team (finally) got naile...

    The mind can be a dark and dismal place. 0

    Story: The beginning starts off with Supergirl working with Batman and then they go to lunch. Donna and Jenny are flying around San Francisco. They were called over to Alkatraz because something is wrong with Shadow Thief. Word got around the prison that Donna was in the city and so one of the prisoners has requested to see her. The prisoner is Bogeyman and she has some bad history with him. Bogeyman tapped into the minds of children and tortured them with their fears and just about anything. Do...

    Not good but not bad! 0

    I really liked the art in this issue.  The story seemed a little silly and pointless but I really loved the clash of the teams and how Donna fought through everything.  I love seeing Donna and Wonder Girl battle it out.  I think that's probably why I really liked this issue.  I do really like JLA but this issue was certainly pointless in the end.  If not for the great art I probably would have dropped the ranking even farther....
