Somehow I not only got over a week ahead with scheduled posts, but also behind on review posts. So this post will be different than usual instead of posting the actual snippets from the reviews I will only have a link to them. With that said here are the links to the Guest Reviews by Anj from Supergirl Comic Box Commentary for DC's Batman/Superman #5, Superman Unchained #4, Justice League of America's Vibe #9, Superboy #25, Superman/Wonder Woman #2, Worlds' Finest #17, Supergirl #25, and Superman #25. I have also added my rating after each review. If you have any questions about my rating or want to discuss anything just leave me a comment.
See the Review Rating Overview page for more information on how I rate each comic.
