Wonder Woman #14

Wonder Woman #13

After being hijacked for a couple of months to offer Absolute Power tie-in issues, Wonder Woman #14 returns to the Sovereign story and the patriarchal cult which has attempted to best, and break, Diana for the better part of a year. Still narrated by the Sovereign, the issue gives us their murder of Steve Trevor and the fallout that comes after it. Looking to hurt the woman who has bested them at every stage, the killing of Trevor sends the group into full readiness to await her reply… which never comes.

Jenny Sparks #3

Jenny Sparks #3

While providing a flashback to Jenny Sparks and Superman discussing his role as the most powerful being on the planet shortly after her return from the dead, the majority of Jenny Sparks #3 continues to focus on the Captain Atom issue with the former Leaguer holding hostages and demanding to be recognized as a god. The Justice League has arrived to handle the situation, ignoring Jenny’s input in favor a a shock and awe campaign that eventually just leaves us with the same status quo (well, that and Atom’s daughter who he barbeques rather than let her talk sense into him – not your best idea Justice League).

Moon Knight: Fist of Khonshu #1

Moon Knight: Fist of Khonshu #1

While it includes Moon Knight, and makes references to the other members of the Midnight Mission, Moon Knight: Fist of Khonshu #1 is more about setting up adversaries for our heroes in the new series than the heroes themselves. Set against a discussion between Flint and corrupt cop Detective Frazier looking for some dirt on Moon Knight, we get scenes of our hero threatening drug dealer Achilles Fairchild whose new magic-induced drug is sweeping the city.

Transformers #13

Following the brutal beatdown at the hands of Soundwave, a broken Starscream is found by scavengers… in a H.I.S.S. Tank (are we finally getting the G.I. JOE/Transformers crossover?). While those events are used to set the story in motion, the primary story from Transformers #13 takes place years before on Cybertron giving us a look at Starscream before he ever became a Decepticon.

Space Ghost #6

Space Ghost #6

As Jace struggles with recent events, and the death caused by his hands, Space Ghost, Jan, and Blip continue to fight the good fight on their own as the comic introduces another classic Space Ghost villain in a single-issue story. Space Ghost #6 gives us Moltar whose backstory is beefed up making him a deranged scientist out for revenge and working with Robo Corp against those he blames for his disfigurement and the loss of his family. Oh, and he really doesn’t like Space Ghost.
