Why Isn't Anyone Paying Attention?

THE ORDER #10

Written by MATT FRACTION
Pencils & Cover by BARRY KITSON

Shell-shocked, shattered, and--worst of all—depowered, the men and women that were once the Order stand face to face with the big-bad that's toyed with them for 9 whole issues in various forms and guises and shapes and sizes. They might be broken--but can The Order be beaten? The end of a strange and vicious trip arrives, and God only knows if the Order will survive.
As this is our last issue, y'know, you might think you know the answer. But you might be wrong! You don't know. You DON'T! Hooray! Goodbye!
By Matt Fraction (PUNISHER WAR JOURNAL, Casanova), Kaare Evans (Immortal Iron Fist) and Barry Kitson (Empire, Legion of Superheroes).

32 PGS./Rated T+ …$2.99

Teen Titans Lost Love Annual #1

Teen Titans Lost Love Annual #1

Writer: Rob Haney
Pencils: Jay Stephens
Inks: Mike Allred
Colors: Laura Allred
DC Comics

The long-finished annual, which the DC editorial was refusing to publish back when Geoff Johns relaunched the titans franchise because it would clash with the cartoon and the new title, has been dwelling in the bat-cave archives for 6 years now. Thankfully public bashing from Mike on his message boards, further publicised from Rich Johnston's Lying In The Gutters, helped turn the titde and get this little gem out to its adoring public.

And the world is a better place for it. Observe:

President JFK getting abducted by Alien Body-Snatchers from the Planet Andy Warhol--

-- getting taken to their Dali leader--
--to lead them in battle against their Jack kirby Hairy Hippie Enemies!

Also Featuring:

Inter-spacial Inter-racial Inter-species (Under-aged) Harems


and

Seduction of the Innocent (in the White house!)

(heretofore referred to as 'Robingate')

Certainly the most unapologetically fun and nastily retro read of the month, providing laughs, thrills, action and the most eerie JFK assassination theory since Milligan's Shade the Changing Man!

8/10
