I really enjoy reading all the Li'l character books that Dynamite Entertainment has been releasing, this week is Li'l Sonja. This week also includes the last issue of The Green Team series. Anyone else read that series? Too bad it's cancelled I actually thought it was a fun series.

-----
Why does it seem like the Smallville comic book is starting to lose focus on what it's about? This whole set up feels too much like X-Men. This series is starting to turn into which superhero characters they can show next. I hope the series will go back to how it was when it first started.



*** I might picked these books up but I haven't decided:

I hope DC doesn't do something stupid and try to kill of Lois Lane.
