Blue Beetle #25

This is what a comic should be. Great writing, great characterization, good art. Refreshing lack of crossovers or continuity to keep track of. This is easily one of the best books out there. This caps off the Reach arc with Jaime and the Beetle starting to communicate on a new level. The sheer level of smackdown to the alien plan is great. Remembering this issue won't be a problem. KHAJI DA!
