people who need space in their comics
Finishing the trilogy of comics I borrowed from a co-worker earlier this month is probably the first DC comic I've read since The Death of Superman, whenever the fuck that was. Turns out it's pretty cool. Really really excellent art, really colorful characters (aliens, people who are just a head and a t-shirt, etc.), and they even go to space a couple times.

Fun, but despite what it set in motion, not actually as big and important and altering to the franchise as what's come more recently.

This book restored my faith in superhero comics.
Just wait 'til you all read The Sinestro Corps War.
