This, plus reviews of Justice League #10, Superman #12, Aquaman #12, Death of Hawkman #3, Shade: The Changing Girl #3, Flintstones #6, and Harley Quinn #9. Cyborg takes the hero question even further, wondering whether he or his new cyborg love, Variant, are even human. That reminded Corrina and Ray of Nightwing’s first series and the original introduction of Bludhaven by creator Chuck Dixon. On the lighter side, Nightwingexplores a little bit of life as Dick Grayson as he moves to Bludhaven to start a new chapter of his life. In Midnighter and Apollo #3, Apollo plays a game with Neron, DC’s master of hell, in which the demon tries to convince Apollo that he’s not a hero at all. The man on the street gets into the action in Green Arrow, passing judgment on whether the archer is a menace or a hero. Then there’s Batman, engaging in a letter exchange with Catwoman over the last two issues of his series, where she talks about not being a hero, and Bruce responds with thoughts on his choice to don the cape and cowl. But our villain is doing it for the wrong reasons. Both have reasons to doubt their fitness as Lanterns, and they battle someone who has no doubts whatsoever about whether he’s a hero. The nature of heroism is a running theme in this week’s comics, most notably in the new Green Lanterns series starring Jessica Cruz and Simon Baz. Who’s the real hero?
