Action Comics #882
"The Hunt for Reactron" part 3! Supergirl and Flamebird continue their slugfest, with poor Nightwing caught in the middle! Wait, isn't that man standing over there the same Reactron who murdered Supergirl's dad and Flamebird's surrogate father? Get him! Continued in SUPERGIRL #46... And in the new Captain Atom co-feature, the mystery of where (and when) Captain Atom is heats up when someone with a connection to Metropolis arrives on the scene. But are they friend or foe?

Posted by magnum240 on 10/12/09 at 05:46 PMhave to agree
Posted by oldmanlogan88 on 10/12/09 at 05:46 PMI'm still in.
Posted by Rustyautoparts on 10/12/09 at 05:47 PMnot about hating nightwing and flamebird i mean the book losing steam
Posted by oldmanlogan88 on 10/12/09 at 05:48 PMPersonally, I love Nightwing and Flamebird. So I'm definitely still in.
Posted by vadamowens on 10/12/09 at 06:04 PMI haven't cared for this book, but I love Supergirl. Sterling Gates' name on the cover is enough for me to hand over my $4.
Posted by BrianBaer on 10/12/09 at 07:23 PMI love Nightwing and Flamebird also. Still good.
Posted by gnanniv on 10/12/09 at 07:28 PMI do really like the characters, but it has lost steam. I blame the crossovers.
Posted by skeets on 10/12/09 at 07:52 PMIt's a lost a little bit of steam, but I'm still looking forward to it. Reaction FTW!

Posted by WinTheWonderboy on 10/13/09 at 12:00 AMi get the feeling this title is always a little rushed. The final product never seems well polished
Posted by edward on 10/13/09 at 12:49 AMThe inclusion if pere perez adds something special. Rucka always seems to have a hard time synching up with an artist.
Posted by mikeandzod21 on 10/13/09 at 02:32 AMI like it but I prefer the Mon-El stories in Superman. What I want to see come out of this is a collection of the classic Clark and Jimmy Olsen Flamebird and Nightwing stories by Curt Swan. Those were ALWAYS a fave of mine as a kid. I'm not sure how many stories there were though and if there are even enough to fill a decent collection. But if they put something together I'm buying it!!!
Posted by Hawkboy on 10/13/09 at 03:56 PM@Hawkboy According to DC's website, they're coming out with a collection of those stories next week.
I thought this was pretty good. I'm glad we're seeing Captain Atom finally beginning to connect with the rest of the Superman world. Things are getting interestinger.
Posted by Rustyautoparts on 10/15/09 at 11:39 PM@rustypanys SWEEEEETTTT!!! How did I miss this???? Thank you!
Posted by Hawkboy on 10/16/09 at 02:01 PMAs god as my witness I have no idea how I got Rustypanys out of Rustyautoparts.
Posted by Hawkboy on 10/16/09 at 02:02 PM@Hawkboy Don't worry, butchering my name seems to be a running theme around here.
Posted by Rustyautoparts on 10/17/09 at 12:10 AMI liked this issue. Probably the strongest issue of Action in a while. And the back-up was solid as well. 4/5 for me. Leagues better than last week's WoNK.
Posted by PraxJarvin on 10/18/09 at 03:08 PMthis wasn't good
