My Week In Comics 11-11-09

Only one book for the second week in a row. The newest issue of "Red Robin" says something like "The Search Continues" on the cover -- presumably referring to the title character's search for Bruce Wayne -- but a quick glance at it indicated nothing like that was on the inside. I also passed on "Green Lantern Corps" and its Blackest Night tie-in, although there's a pretty big development at the end of it. Seemingly, at least. Thus, just one book:

Action Comics 883: Nightwing and Flamebird get back to their original mission: capturing General Zod's Kryptonian "sleeper agents" on Earth, and one of them ages. Rapidly. Meanwhile, someone finally is wondering whatever happened to poor Jimmy Olsen. And I've said this before, but the "second feature" starring Captain Atom really, truly, emphatically is tied into the rest of the events in the Superman books. I'd probably have enjoyed it more when it started if it were in its own book, instead of parceled out in 8-page bites.
