The Green Lantern teams with Green Arrow this week right? That should be exciting, a callback to the classics when they use to team up. According to Liam Sharps twitter, Morrisons Green Lantern is the bestselling DC comic after Batman and Event comics.

Thoughts on Shazam? Ive heard good things. Doesnt surprise me since Johns Shazam backstory run in New 52 Justice League was so good.

Young Justice should be another fun read. I think Bendis really shines with the younger heroes, Young Justice, Naomi, Miles Morales, etc.

@MajorZuma Regarding your points:

Shazam! is your standard Johns book, which means you should buy it ASAP.

I liked the new ish of The Green Lantern. Trippy and fun, which I feel is an apt summation of Morrison’s Green Lantern run so far.

Young Justice #6 was good. No spoilers, but some questions are answered.

The commonality of them all is that they’re fun and absolutely worth a look.

Picked up Green Lantern #8 (loving it, perhaps my favorite Lantern series if it keeps going the way it is) and Paper Girls #29, the penultimate issue. Nearing the end of something you’ve been following (or getting confused by) for years is always bittersweet, but sure Vaughan will stick the landing. Then it’s back to Saga haha. Also snagged the Vision hardcover to keep catching up on Tom King.

First week of the month is always a slobberknocker of a lineup for DC. It’s really, really hard for me to pick which comic to read first.

I think my order will be:

  1. Justice League #25
  2. Young Justice #6
  3. Green Lantern #8
  4. Shazam! #6
  5. Batman #72
  6. DCeased #2
  7. Adv. of the Super-Sons #11 (probably will wait for #12 to read them together)

Happy reading, all!

@Super-Squirrel I find my “slobberknocker week” is the one where Superman, Supergirl, Red Hood: Outlaw and more come out. It’s The Week of a given month for me.
