perletwoLOSH #10 is just out, and it's setting up for the next big story arc. I bring you 3 & 1/3 pages to give you the general idea.
Last issue: Some creepozoid monsternasties teleported into Brainiac 5's lab to kidnap him, despite Harmonia and Dream Girl's best defenses; Brainy got snatched, and Dreamy got taken along for the ride.
( We've escaped from worse. )
Technically the kidnappers are unidentified, but the Legion has, let us say, a very strong suspicion. But despite a covert intel assault on the suspects' Earth embassy and current leader Mon-El's impassioned plea to the council, the United Planets and Earthgov have forbidden the Legion from making any move against their suspects.
So what's a team to do? Splinter over the issue, of course.
( We're not leaving any Legionnaires behind. )
So help is on the way, and that's a good thing! Right?
( Right? )
It's a little early to start placing bets, but it should be interesting to see how the odds on that prophecy of Dreamy's shape up as the arc progresses.
Incidentally, I think Star Boy is in that chair because of ongoing effects of the process of restoring his sanity after his return from the 21st century. (Unless he got whomped in the Saturn Queen's New Legion of Super-Villains arc and I've forgotten? Anyone?) Reference has been made to his having rehab sessions, but I believe the end of last ish was the first time we'd seen him use an assistive device to get around.

The terrible secret of Toyland

Previously on FABLES: Bigby and Snow White's daughter Therese has been crowned Queen of Toyland... but there seems to be something her plushy and plastic subjects are not telling her.

Death in the colosseum
Jun. 21st, 2012 09:34 pmmrosaAlejandro Jodorowsky and Milo Manara's Borgia is a violent series about Pope Alexander VI's reign of crime and lust. It's a story full of political back-stabbing, violence and sex. The ingredientes for a great comic book. Here's one of my favourite sequences:

It should be said that Manara is one of the greatest comic book artists of our times. Although he has a preference for porn, he can draw anything he wants - the level of detail in his pencils is always astonishing.
