Issue #110: Catch Up Week #26, Part III: Comic Books For The Week Of Wednesday, February 23, 2011:

This is the final installment of my catch up week for the comic book titles I bought during the month of February, 2011, from my local comic book shop, Acme Comics, in Longwood, Florida.

Legion Of Super-Heroes  #10 (DC)
Fables #102 (Vertigo/DC)

Legion Of Super-Heroes #10 (DC) *  *  *  *  


While some Legionnaires pull guard duty on the traveling UP Council, Cosmic Boy informs the Legion's new leader of his election victory. The current incarnation of the Legion Espionage Squad goes on a mission while Brainiac 5 discharges his duties as Deputy Leader. And it seems that the mystery behind the Durlan attacks on the United Planets Council is finally solved. This was another excellent Legion title. While the mystery that began this series has been solved, there are some other plots that have been slowly working their way into the forefront, and filling me with anticipation for what will happen to the Legion next.

Fables #102 (Vertigo/DC) *  *  *  *  *


This issue begins the next chapter of the former residents of Fabletown. Writer Bill Willingham does a good job of bringing new readers like me quickly up to speed about how the Fables got in their current situation. We are introduced to their next threat and the Fables' plans to meet that threat. Part of their plans include the use of some modern Fables. This was a great setup of the next storyline. Having not read Fables since the second trade paperback, I did not feel lost. I got just enough information to be able to jump into the new story.
