New Comic Book Day XIX

It's a decidedly sparse Wednesday in Comictown today, with a measly smattering of books drizzling down on humanity. Dini finally swerves back to Detective Comics... but to tell a story from Countdown. There's more Sinestro War in Green Lantern Corps and Cyborg Superman, but if the Superman one is anything like the Parallax tale, it won't be worth the eye strain required to read it.
Marvel's only dropping a couple buyables themselves, but at least they should be somewhat more entertaining since they include the incomparable Brubaker's underwhelming Uncanny and the pick o' the week, MODOK's 11 #4... because it's MODOK.

New Comic Book Day VII

Well, it's finally happened... A DC book, Green Lantern #21, is this week's highlight. I'm a little sad to do it, but that Sinestro Corps Special was just so damned breathtaking, I'd be lying if I said I haven't been anticipating the next chapter ever since. Green Lantern has always been one of the few DC characters I've actually liked, so I was very happy to see the return of Hal Jordan, but Hal and the Corps are about to get their collective ring toting @$$ handed to them. A squad consisting of Sinestro and his Corps, a Parallaxed out Kyle Rayner, the evil Superman cyborg, the evil Superboy from an alternate universe, and the existence destroying Anti-Moniter is pretty much the most ridiculous amount of adversity ever. Can team green live up to the challenge or will there be a lot of dead little blue guys?
