... way, look at the way he grasped the tension between the street smart Rudy and the insufferably intellectual Doctor when writing the Parasite in issue #34.) With _Supergirl_, David has found an artist in Leonard Kirk who is perfectly capable of letting him play to these strength; one who, in fact, excels at character work like no one else working in comics this side of Brent Anderson or Terry Moore. One has just to look at the absolutely gorgeous way David's monologue about Linda's creative process melds with Kirk's succession of close-ups of Linda at work to realize what miracles this team can produce. David equates the process of creation with ...

... use he is currently set to take over for Morrison. But first things first. Morrison and regular artists Howard Porter and John Dell return with issue #34, to begin Morrison's final story arc (which according to editor Dan Raspler, will probably conclude with issue #39, maybe #40), an epic that promises to leave plenty of changes and victims in its wake, as the team squares off against the deadly Mageddon. Let us hear, or rather read, the words from Waid's own mouth on what he plans to do with the JLA: "Since I don't smear peyote on my morning bagel, it'll be tough to sustain the sheer barrage of weird inventiveness Grant brought to the book, but ...

... es deserved better than this. The scratchy inks and distorted faces of Ryan and Janke didn't help matters. TD: 1.3 Shields - Reason to kill off S:MOT #34: Another in a series of inconsequential single-shot stories that do nothing except -- in this case -- feed Luthor's evil. As if we didn't see the 'surprise twist' of this story coming.... It seems like yesterday when the new quarterly The Man of Tomorrow came out, and we are already up to issue 11.

[ 4] Superboy and the Ravers #15, "Edge of the Event Horizon" [ 3] Steel #38, "The Gambler" [ 2] Steel #34, "Bang" Once again, _JLA_ beats-out the competition.
