BEST HALLOWS SPECIAL YET!

Simply fantastic. I swear there is something in here for everyone. This DCU HALLOWEEN SPECIAL really is the best yet.
For the nostalgic, there is a nice Bruce Wayne/ Barbara Gordon/ Dick Grayson era story. Guy Gardner Pulls through in a GL Halloween Bash on OA (with a bit of heartstring pulling ta boot). A quicky from the Creeper. A story about The Outsiders filling in for Batman. The new Robin delivers some of his own brand of justice. the Old Robin takes a respectful walk down memory lane on Dia De Muertos. Ravager is hot. Mirror Master (in his own misguided way) actually saves some lives from Bloody Mary. BeastBoy cant catch a break. A horror movie girls night in (and out i guess) for the ladies of the Teen Titans and Wonder Woman. Clark and Lois working to instill the holiday fear-it into some tough teens. And probably the coolest looking and feeling story involves the Flash and Superman in, you guessed it, a RACE! (though the ending is guaranteed to make you smile.
Cool hero costumes on kids, awesome stories about the heroes and villains we love. Creepy and Campy. Sweet and scary. All rolled into six bucks of comic! Its worth every penny you guys!

Yes its true, i'm a sucker for these new 6 buck 80 pages, i mean its just a good deal.
Luckily, all the ones I've gotten lately have been great, including this one.
Before you go reading this, remember, this is a light-hearted comic, basically showing your favorite heroes enjoying Halloween.
Its also really nice to see everyone not in a state of panic all the time, it seems too much these teams of people are overstressed.
(a few stories have a good amount of action, so anyone looking for some action, shouldn't be disappointed)
For 6 bucks, its a great deal, with a pretty fun read
Only thing i don't understand is why it wasn't released next week, seeing as thats only 3 days from Halloween

Quick take on this one:
So, I finally got around to finishing this comic. And it sucked pretty hard. I thought it was going to be awesome because I liked last years Halloween special so much...But I was wrong. There was only 2 maybe 3 stories that I enjoyed in the whole thing. And Alot of the art was suckish.
If you see it in the next coming weeks or months for 50% off or something like that, then pick it up. Otherwise i'd skip this one. 2 out of 5.
