18 DAYS #1: The only nice thing I can say is that the art looked like a cross between Chris Sprouse and Becky Cloonan.

ACTION COMICS #42 (DC Comics)
Action Comics was excellent. Really great work. The change in status quo has opened up some great storytelling. pic.twitter.com/Aqk8pk8Jo3
— James Kaplan (@sinisterjhk) July 2, 2015
Holy shit. Action Comics #42 is the best Superman issue since the New 52 began.
— Bizarro Aaron Meyers (@ReverendMagnett) July 2, 2015
A Superman who acknowledges that police can be the villains is the Superman we need right now.
— Bizarro Aaron Meyers (@ReverendMagnett) July 2, 2015
Action Comics #42 solidifies that Pak and Kuder should be on the book forever. Powers or not, THAT is Superman.

AIRBOY #2 (Image Comics)
I dont know how to feel about Airboy. It left me very conflicted. pic.twitter.com/od9ESVREtr
— Aaron Meyers (@AaronMeyers) July 1, 2015
AIRBOY #2: One errant use of the loathsome term “San Fran” aside, it’s just as irreverent, beautiful, and meta as the first.
— Justin Giampaoli (@ThirteenMinutes) July 1, 2015
Airboy 2 is completely insane… In the best way possible. This book is messed up, and you need to be reading it. #ncbd #comics
— Comical Podcast (@ComicalPodcast) July 1, 2015
I'll say this, Airboy is really entertaining, but that's the same thing I say about Johnny Knoxville.
— Bizarro Aaron Meyers (@ReverendMagnett) July 1, 2015
So earlier I was pretty flippant about Airboy, and I don't think I represented what I actually think at all. That's on me.
— Bizarro Aaron Meyers (@ReverendMagnett) July 1, 2015
It's a book I can't make up my mind about and the second issue has me thinking it may be more hollow than what it's projecting.
— Bizarro Aaron Meyers (@ReverendMagnett) July 1, 2015
However, it's entertaining, very well made, and absolutely fascinating. It's one of two comics this week I REALLY want to talk about.
— Bizarro Aaron Meyers (@ReverendMagnett) July 1, 2015
Whether what I'm wrong or right at this moment, I'd much rather be reading Airboy than 90% (probably more) of what's out there.
— Bizarro Aaron Meyers (@ReverendMagnett) July 1, 2015
My tweets aren't reviews, they're thoughts off the cuff. There's a reason I haven't written about Airboy yet though.
— Bizarro Aaron Meyers (@ReverendMagnett) July 1, 2015
I'm really not sure of its ultimate value and meaning, but I'm really interested to find out.
