DC Comics to buy today

Here’s what I am picking up this week from DC Comics:

Justice League Dark #5

I have been enjoying this book, especially the art, but have been a bit concerned by the pace. This issue looks to pull the team together.

If you read this blog regularly, you’ll know I was looking forward to Voodoo when it was first announced. But the first issue, you know the one where the lead character was introduced on her hands and knees stripping, was so irritating I dropped it. The book has a new writer and I am back for another try based on this interview by Josh Williamson:

You know, here is the thing: You don’t have to be a stripper to be sexy. You can look at the Aliens franchise and see that Sigourney Weaver as a kick-ass strong female character can still be sexy. I think people will be surprised by the direction we’re taking the character, how it works with what came before but also takes her into new dangerous territory.

Okay, you got me.
