Just got back from San Diego this past Tuesday night. Our first visit to Keith’s Komix since we left for vacation had 2 weeks worth of comic books waiting in our pull. So we decided to pickup half of the stack as well as set aside a few graphic novels Serena wants for references. I brought my laptop to show Keith our vacation pics and Serena shared her portfolio review experiences – from the awfully nice let down by Disney to the awesome one on one portfolio review with a DC Editor. This year’s trip to San Diego Comic-Con was a blast and we can’t wait to go again next year!

Deadman discovers the truth behind the formation of the White Lantern and what it means to the twelve returnees and the rest of the DC Universe. Plus, Aquaman, Martian Manhunter, Hawkman, Hawkgirl and Firestorm discover the price for their resurrections…and why they may be doing more harm than good to the world.

I also put all the BRIGHTEST DAY tie-ins in this pick up as well so that I can get caught up by the next week FTW!

THE STORY:
Where is Ozma? The mind-blowing answer is finally revealed this issue! But not before a major magical showdown between Glinda and Mombi that features transformations, the pearl of truth, and a footrace between the Saw-Horse and a Griffin. Yet even when the Scarecrow, the Tin Woodman, and their friends find Ozma, how are they going to get Jinjur off the throne of Oz?

This has been a fantastic follow up to THE WONDERFUL LAND OF OZ! If you missed this series, definitely pick up the trade when it hits your LCS.

HAPPY READING!
