This is my first issue of the series. And it's also the last issue of the series. I can see why.
Earth 2: World's End #22 (DC)
Based on the preview cards and the same material appearing in all of DC's releases last week for next month's Convergence, I'd say this particular weekly is leading directly into it. That and the end of this very issue.
Grayson #8 (DC)
This was a great week for ending things, I guess. Dick's boss in Spyral, Minos, plays his hand. And totally gets played. Not brilliant, but probably the best regular issue I've read from the series to date.
The New 52: Futures End #44 (DC)
At some point, Superman officially made his return. I like that he's back to the t-shirt look. This is easily the best issue I've read of the series to date.

In which Marko becomes a hopeless drug addict? I know Hamburger K. Vaughan prefers paper correspondence, but here're my answers to the reader survey, results featured this issue: 1) Carter, 2) male, 3) no, 4) Green Lantern, 5) never left the good ol' USofA, 6) absurd (probably), 7) middle-to-late in the pack, 8) Peter Ackroyd's English Music, but to make things less obscure, Dan's Brown's Angels & Demons, 9) I generally support Israel's right to exist, 10) lately it's been cookie dough bites, 11) yeah, 12) no, 13) addicted to comics?, 14) One.org, 15) actually, because I tend to imagine the worst anyone could call me, people don't tend to vocalize it themselves, 16) we'll say it's a many cartoons tie, 17) I had to look up the best novel I've read recently, 18) I don't remember the name of it, but that one I was obsessed with a decade ago, 19) actually, pretty much every day, 20) none, 21) not yet, 22) U2's Songs of Innocence, 23) none, 24) for expansion of your cultural awareness, 25) hopefully for being a good brother, son, and having written a decent story or two.

The biggest end of the batch and the best by far, this one concludes Warren Ellis's whole statement on the continuing legacy of Supreme by literally writing into the narrative that the poor guy actually waits for reboots. Classic.

| Yes, the title flower is a maguffin. But a good one. |
Why did they think Aquaman could support two titles?
