JUSTICE LEAGUE #14Johns continues to write his own version of Bronze Age Wonder Woman hosted in JLA, and I'm strangely okay with that. I don't want to read it myself, but at least Cheetah is being treated as a force to be reckoned with after years in second stringer status. She was Diana's go-to villain for decades, but nobody has known what to do with her in the modern age. It would have helped to have had Jim Lee draw her though, instead of a fill-in between a shift in art teams.

GREEN LANTERN #14It's weird seeing Mahnke draw the JLA again, especially when he used to do it much better. This looks like early Dougie Braithwaite inked by Tomm Coker.

JHW's writing certainly has gone off the boil lately; dont know about any 'attitude' of his but I do know of several last-minute editorial changes where writers are considering being swapped round from Batwoman to Firestorm to Birds of Prey, without even first consulting them. I do know that some have criticised the recent Batwoman plot, where Kate Kane is now a reluctant operative of Agent Chase [which many readers disagree with, preferring for her to remain a vigilante] and the poorly-plotted lesbian love triangle that not only is lamely written but cheapens Kate somewhat. The abrupt switchover of the previous [excellent] artist for the current one also didnt agree with him, as JHW personally wanted him to draw the book and with him gone its lost that special 'look'.
On the plus side the Medusa plot is coming along quite nicely - its great to see all these disparate villains coming together to create a supernatural underworld in Gotham.
I havent read the latest issue yet but apparently Diana's guest appearance is using her 'inner voice' not in direct conversation with Kate. Cannot wait to read it and find out for myself.
Thanks Karl!
