    Ventura

    The book that Roulette was trying to destroy is gone, taken by an assassin back tot he planet of Ventura.  Ventura is a gaming planet, meaning it's one huge gambling hall.  The book that was stolen is the Book of Destiny and tells of all things, past, present and future.  Helpful on a gaming planet, huh?
    I like Supergirl, but I'm not really hip on how she was portrayed at the beginning of this issue.  Ok, she's beautiful (and beautifully drawn here), but really, does she need to be "throwing herself" at Green Lantern like that.  She's better than that.  Although, I can see how it plays into the scheme of things, how the author uses that... crush... to work into the story later.  Personally, I think it was a little overdone.
    Anyway, while Green Lantern and Supergirl are chasing the Book of Destiny on Ventura, Blue Beetle and Batman are tracking down the other assassin on Earth.  I'm not too familiar with Blue Beetle... is he always the schizophrenic?  He's all over the place.
    I like how Kara takes the (what she considers) an insult from Green Lantern and uses that as a motivation and a tool to help them along in this mystery.  See, she's got a brain in there... she's not all beauty and muscle!
    This storyline is moving right along and really has me engrossed.  I want to know more of this Book of Destiny and how in the blazes are they going to get it back?
