A mass shooting (go figure) where batman does his best to stop the shooter while dealing with the loss of Jason.
This a decent one shot. Basically Batman dealing with the league. Not as grounded or dark as Starlins run.
A great big issue which resets a few things.
Manchester Black was a big character in last couple of years for Supes. So Lex uses that to reset everyone knowing who Superman and Jon really are for the right selfish reasons you'd expect for Lex. This leaves Superman to deal with him in a great way and also set up the next 3 superman series. Really enjoyable, great art, and can't see what comes next. A 4 out of 5.

The end for Young Justice is here.
Basically it covers to big storylines. One where the Young Justice recruit a bunch of people to help take down a big bad. It's actually a pretty fun storyline with a solid ending. Then there's the last few issues which include Secret going batshit insane, feels forced and rushed, with a death that didn't seem to really matter.
Young Justice has always been a mixed bag, but I'm glad I finished the entire series and while it has the ups and downs it's still enjoyable. A 3 out of 5.

Meh didn't really do much for me. Cool to see Batman reflect on Robin though at the end.
Silent issues can be tricky. While this didn't do anything brand new, the reactions to finding out Bruce died (especially Alfred and Dick) was excellent.
Meh kind of boring. Just bunch of people dressed as Bat getting killed. But not very interesting.
When the focus was on the children and Tim, it was really solid. Especially the dead boy detective moments. But the backstories got really boring real quick. Still solid stuff!
A weird and very sexually charged issue. It focuses on identity and what we are and how we present ourselves while also discussing sexual urges. It sometimes works, and the art follows it well being zanny, but about half way tries too much and tries to go too big in covering things but loses it's way. But I do like the character of Doctor occult.
Been too long since I got to read my Vinland Saga but man this one blew me away by the end.
Basically this volume covers Thorfin and group finally getting to vinland and beginning their quest to start a civilization free of war and death. This is pretty great change of pace, and watching Thorfin learn to trade with Indians while also building up his people's homes is great. There's some really great stuff in here, lots of thoughtful planning is put into how they began building up their villages work well.
But the final chapter is one of the best in the entire manga, if not my favorite. It shows a woman who is finally ready to let go of the past. That anger and revenge can only fuel you for so long. And the last few pages brought my grown ass to tears in moments. What an excellent send off for the book.
