This series has taken me back to the fun of reading the early Teen Titans stories. That makes sense, especially with the Mad Mod showing up. But it’s more than that. This series has returned us to the joy of being able to go SO fast! At the same time, we’ve seen a threat that looks just beyond the abilities of our heroes to defeat. Can they find a way to overcome the danger of Symphonee? What will the finale of this excellent mini-series give us? Wanna know more? Follow us after the jump!

“Twisted Code” Review of SPEED FORCE #5

How does a mini-series get better with every issue? SPEED FORCE is a great example. This penultimate issue does everything a penultimate issue should do. It ramps up the intensity well past 11, it gives us some little victories without spoiling the finale. And, it gives us some mysterious clues about a character that (hopefully) gives us even more reason to grab the final issue when it hits the LCS shelves. Wanna know more? Follow us after the jump!

“The Doctor is In” Review of JAY GARRICK: THE FLASH #5

I’m likely repeating myself, but I have loved EVERY panel and page of this series! Jay and Judy Garrick make a tremendous team, and Doctor Elemental makes a formidable villain.
