From the DC Vault Robin Lives #25 I'm guessing the number is a typo? Is that series paying off at all? I've been considering trying it out, but I fully realize it's a cheap stunt. |

It's a decent exploration of PTSD by DeMatteis, both how Jason and Bruce are dealing with the events of Death of the Family. It's typical DeMatteis exploration of the human psyche. Nothing earthshattering, but a decent read so far. And I tend to be a fan of Leonardi's art. -M |

I haven't been able to pick up the latest issue but the previous issues were solid. It really felt like an attempt to give us what the book could have been like back then if Jason had lived. The art has an 80's vibe and the writing definitely has that classic feel; it really is like a look into an alternate world which is really part of the fun in the book. |

majestic did you catch the latest Moon Knight? Man, I loved that ending. I don't know what's coming next but that definitely felt satisfying to me even if the whole fake Moon Knight story was a bit drawn out.

Jonny Quest continues to amaze, sure the old embittered future self plot may be old hat by now( there was an alternate cover that was a direct homage to DKR) but when it's done well that hardly matters and it's done really well here. I think my only criticism is that because they are specifically continuing on from the original show the future is trapped into being 2024 as that's about as far as you can go and still reasonably have Jonny alive, and I get it you can hand wave the differences in technology stemming from the sci-fi wonders of the Quest team advancing technology faster than it did in the real world but it still seems just a tiny bit of a stretch for me in what is otherwise an amazing book.
