Superman: The Man of Steel Vol. 3 | Jim Starlin, Dan Jurgens, Jerry Ordway, John Byrne

To me, this iteration of SUPERMAN (late ‘80‘s) by the great John Byrne and Jerry Ordway, is the sweet spot for the character. Bright and colorful, yet shedding the ridiculous fringes of the Golden and Silver eras. There are still zany plots and characters, but with just enough pathos to be taken seriously. Fun, with a hint of realism, is just the right flavor of the Son of Krypton for my tastes.

Catwoman: Lonely City | Cliff Chiang

A masterpiece! This is not only a love letter to DC Comics history, but a stark reflection of our current political times. Catwoman is released from prison 10 years after the death of Batman. Can she adjust to the new world order? Can she rely on old friends? Can she save her city?
Writer/artist/colorist/letterer Cliff Chiang (of Wonder Woman and Paper Girls) makes quite the statement with this project!

At the end of WWII, the JSA find themselves of no more use to the country, and then try to return to civilian life with varying degrees of success. An obvious WATCHMEN clone, but not a bad one. My only complaints are the lack of action set pieces (until the final battle on the last pages), and the underwhelming nature of the story under the shadow of other much similar and superior books. Worth checking out if this kind of narrative works for you.
