Meow :(
I'm rly tired so I'm going to make this fast and go to bed :(
I FINALLY got a chance to get my comics today so I'm pleased xD
Cuz I'm tired I'm just gonna quickly say what I got:
Booster Gold - #7
Green Lantern Corps - #22
JLA Classified - #54
Superman - #674
Wonder Woman - #18
:o This is the last JLA Classified :( I liked it even tho others didn't just cuz I like stories that are set in older continuity and older teams and I find that neat :D Esp since I'm not that enamoured with the current JLA xD
Neways here are the SSR :D
Booster Gold - #7 - Good :D Tho a little predicatable since we get a heel turn of a char I'm sure we all alrdy guessed was ebil. xD However, I luff dystopian alternate universe stories and I just enjoy the "what if the bad guy succeeded" idea and to see what would happen and stuff, so I thoroughly enjoyed this story for the most part :D 4/5
Green Lantern Corps - #22 - Not a lot happens in this story, ultimately, but we get to see the Guardians actually do things that aren't ebil and mysterious and we also get a little more character development of Boddika and her ppls which is cool :D Not exciting but not bad :D 3.5/5
JLA Classified - #54 - The story itself is pretty generic, tho I guess for an end to a series, it's a good way to go, and the ending is a neat little "this is what the Justice League is about" thing which is a good way to end this book I think. :) I rly liked the double storyline running concurrently tho where the past story is being told at the top of the pages while the present story is being told at the bottom :D My only question is... did the JLA KILL the villain at the end!? :OOOO I thought they didn't kill.. even like... when they have to... :o Neways :D It isn't a bad story but it is kinda generic :| However it's a pretty satisfying ending to a pretty entertaining arc :] Not a bad way to end the series on! 3/5
Superman - #674 - I dunno who this guy Superman is fighting and I dun rly care since he seems like "generic bad guy #29423" or something. xD Just like, at least we're TOLD who he is, but still! Umm.. there seems to be a lot of plots running at once and it seems a little crowded sometimes. This is clearly leading up to something bigger but I was just mostly bored with this issue. :( 2/5
Wonder Woman - #18 - Wonder Woman fighting Khund = Awesome. Other stuff in the book, not so awesome. :\ I'm not rly sold on the WW/Nemmy relationship at all, also I dunno.. the story rly didn't GRAB me, and things seem to just be happening out of the blue. It IS nice to see more involvement from WW's regular cast tho and development of those characters and stuff. :) But I didn't rly like this issue much :( On a side note I had a dream about Khunds capturing me as Supergirl (before I read this issue)! :O It was very very very odd xD 1.5/5
Kk... XD That's it. Maybe it's cuz I'm tired that I feel so blah about everything :\ I'll hopefully put up some longer reviews when I get my 50 hours of sleep! :D
I am SO tired v_v
Good night! :D

2 angel hugs! :D:
I liked the parallel stories in JLA Classified as well. I thought that was an interesting technique.
They didn't exactly kill the villain. He no longer has physical form and I'm not sure that in his current state he actually has any coherent mental capacity, but I guess technically he is still alive in some manner.
So far Gail's Wonder Woman just isn't quite clicking with me. I like that she is establishing Diana as being much more formidable and all that, but I feel like we're also losing some of the things that I thought Greg Rucka did a great job with in presenting her as an incredibly deep character (much more so than the two other members of the 'Trinity') in terms of her ability to act as a mediator and an ambassador, and yet having no qualms about doing whatever it takes (including killing if she deems that the necessary action) in order to end a threat to others' lives (meanwhile Batman and Superman stand on their high horse while the Joker consistently escapes from Arkham and continues to kill people and Luthor manages to extricate himself from adjudication and also is responsible for more deaths -- but somehow all that blood isn't on Kal and Bruce's hands in their minds).
I'm also not so excited about the possible Wonder Woman/Nemesis relationship that seems to be budding. I don't know who else I would suggest for her, but I feel fairly certain she could find a moer suitable individual.
GLC: Do the Alpha Lanterns come off as good guys to you? They are cold and unsympathetic to me.
Wonder Woman: Thumbs up! Quite good.
