Our Punchline story continues. Spinning out of the backup pages of The Joker, Alexis Kaye continues her terror of Gotham now that she's been acquitted of all crimes she was accused of during The Joker War. What does this mean for Gotham? I'd say nothing good. Let's jump into this book and see what Punchline has in store for us with her Gotham Game. Let's check it out.
It's the Return of Kal-El part 3 and even though our part 2 in Superman: Son of Kal-El didn't do much for Superman returning...... or even doing much for the Lex Luthor/Metallo threat coming in this arc..... it somehow became associated with what's going on here. Previously, we saw Lex Luthor wanting to get Metallo out of prison to take care of Superman, who has brought Warworld back to Earth, but it also seems that Luthor has his own plans to take technology from Warworld so hopefully this plot thickens as we move on because I can't wait to see these two villains team up against our Man of Steel. But will we get any of that here or move on to something new? Let's jump into this issue and check it out.
Let's check back in on my favorite Robin, Tim Drake, who is now finally in his own solo series, something that I've waited forever for but let's not forget the old saying, "Be careful what you wish for". The thing is, while I love Tim Drake, the first issue of this series didn't "Wow" me, hell, it didn't even "Whelm" me, and going into this second issue I have to hope beyond hope that the writing and art have improved because the last issue was rough. Let's see if this murder mystery that Tim Drake has found himself in with some of the most convoluted plot elements becomes something that's not only decipherable but something that's also good. Let's check it out.
Harley Quinn #23 wrestles with the consequences of Harley's resurrection as a new cult springs up to worship Harley (post-death) while Robin comes calling to stop any potential Lazarus Pit side effects.
The Human Target #8 finds Christopher Chance and Ice confronted by a JLI member with tough questions, tougher methods for extracting answers, and really tough armor.
Sgt. Rock vs. The Army of the Dead #2 pits Sgt. Rock and Easy Company against the first collection of undead Nazi soldiers. That's it. That's the description.
