It's good, not great. But I do think it's worthwhile if you're a fan of Brubaker.

Hmmm, that doesn't sound like the ringing endorsement I was hoping for, as I am not a die hard Brubaker fan. I am a sucker for Mod stuff though.

It's sci-fi Mod Archie comics. Like, it's
literally a sci-fi story with Mod fashions and characters based loosely on the Archie gang.
This week:
Batman, Incorporated #1
The Flash #8*
Prophet #25
Ragemoor #2*
Finally picked up Ragemoor #1 last week and man is that good stuff. Prophet is such a good book, I just re-read the first four issues of this run and it just gets better. I've been buying it digitally but I hope there's a big HC in the future as it's one I'll want to own physically.
Dorothy and the Wizard of Oz 7
Flash 9
Hulk 52
Prophet 25
Ragemoor 3
Batman Inc. #1
MIND MGMT #1
Prophet #25
Ragemoor #3
The Unwritten #37
Prophet #25 is soooooo good you guys.

Oh man, so good.
Also sooooo good:
Batman Incorporated #1. Burnham's art has takien a leap.
I picked up Mind MGMT today along with the aforementioned, and man, did this week seem extraordinarily impressive, or was it just me?
As far as Mind MGMT goes, I don't know when the last time I was this excited to read the next chapter of a comic. The weird paranoia it creates is wonderful, and the format, and the odd little references like the Third Man nod make it so engaging and suspenseful without having to scream, "Look at this!" It like reading a Pynchon comic book. So needless to say, I highly recommend it.
