    I really like Wednesday Comics because it showcases each writer and artists special talent in a unique way. Here is my take on each of the storiesSuperman-strange story,but amazing art. It's very graphic and detailed. 4/5Batman-Dark,mysterious,just like a regular Batman story 3.5/5Deadman-The art is very different on this piece,which makes it unique 4/5Green Lantern-One of my favorites in the whole issue  Great art,great story 5/5Hawkman-I have to give Baker some credit,this story was realy deep...
