I hesitate to ask... what did you think?

If I have to go through another issue of Powers, Inc. and replace Powergirl with Power Girl another time... I will scream.
Strong issue!

I read it. I liked it.
It was better than the last installment, but still no five stars. I loved Booster Gold and Blue Beetle in there, the "dizzying swirl of justice" and the cheese threat (Will we ever see this enemy again?). Also, Mister Miracle is becoming quickly another favorite.
Keep up the monthly good work. Or I'll cry.

Mister Miracle carried this issue, with style and grace and panache and....other similar stuff. Power Girl said some wise things....at least I thought they were, when I wasn't staring at her cleavage.
Good overall, but there were some bits in the Booster/Blue Beetle sequence where a repeated typo meant that Booster was arguing with himself instead of Beetle.
And Beetle was right, that particular joke-come-true wasn't funny. At all.

I found it funny. And I think that the book is finally returning to form with a new burst of creative energy coming from all the writers. When Chris comes back, we'll be A-Grade again, me thinks, but until then, we've actually got a structured plot, some story threads just below the surface, and the return of one of my favourite characters! Mr Miracle in PI is an amazing guy, and his relationship with everyone is so cool. With Oberan plotting peoples demises behind bars after him taking the flack for the Uberbot fiasco last month, what will he get up to next? Time will tell! And that fruit joke... Yikes, I got worried, considering "Grim"....

Wanna apologize for being so late on the cover.
Thankfully, only one person bothered to read the issue so its no big loss.

I read it. Second iddue in a row I was surprised to see up already. Good work Chuck and Ramon. The cover is sweet. I wanted to see Ramon do some P,I. covers for awhile and now there's two kickass covers in a row. Nice!

Good issue, and nice character moments. I'm kind of getting tired of the Blue Beetle being shot in the head joke though... Actually no I'm not.  Keep it up... Or else! |

More in general, City of the Dead had the joke, and it's been floating around online and amongst my group of friends offline to. But yeah, once again great issue and I'm surprised that theres going to be an ongoing plot now. lol |

Good issue. I like the interaction between Booster and Beetle although some of it was a little *too* much Punch and Judy. The "Beetle being shot in the head" joke is used a little much, but it is kinda of ironic enough to get away with it  I'm curious why Booster was so keen on fighting the JLA. |

This issue had a few cool moments but overall it didn't really click for me.
Not being a fan of Faraday I really didn't care for his appearance or understood the point of him asking Powers INC to fight the Justice League.
The only character that I really clicked with here was Mister Miracle so I hope to see more of him.
Not one of the better issues in this series but it is nice to see the ol' gang back together on a regular basis.

There is an easy explanation for the Faraday wanting the team to hunt down the JL. We weren't aware of that plot point  |

Apparently not, when it came to the ending, John.
