The only thing that could make the Action comic one look better is the classic red trunks being on Superman so all of his body is in shadow buy them.

@jackcryan: Halloween is in October which is probably why they went with the theme.

I love how DC includes the variant covers in every digital comic. Marvel ought to start doing the same, and should update their old issues as well.

For some reason I thought Robin: Son of Batman was a 4-issue miniseries. Is it an ongoing? I would LOVE that!

I love it! I wish I could see them all.

Black Lagoon Grayson confuses me though, surely Aquaman would be the logical choice.
