Super Sunday: DC's Kal-El-Fornia Love Special

DC released DC's Kal-El-Fornia Love one shot summer special last week. The cover features Superman, Lois Lane, Superboy, Supergirl, Power Girl and other members of the Super Family.

Here's the official summery: "Brighter than a Hollywood star, more powerful than Silicon Valley tech, able to leap tall redwood trees in a single bound… it’s DC’s Kal-El-fornia love! The whole Super-Family is hitting the road in a series of action-packed adventures across the great state of California. Supergirl’s day at the beach is interrupted by a demonic creature from the deep and John Constantine! Jon and Conner Kent team up to wrangle an escaped beast in the Redwoods! Bizarro (literally) crashes an audition for a major motion picture! And join Superman and Lois as a kaiju from the Pacific Ocean comes for their family vacation! The Summer of Superman is heating up, so slather on some sunscreen and snag your latest beach read!"

There are eight stories within this anthology special that includes the following: Superman in "See Spot Fly", Jimmy Olsen in "The Gorilla Ex-Wife of Jimmy Olsen", Power Girl in "Before Sunrise" (Ice guest stars), Bizarro in "Against the Wind" (guest starring Green Lantern Guy Gardner), Lois Lane in "Bite the Apple" (Wonder Woman briefly appears), Steel in "Across the Room", the Superboys (Conner Kent and Jon Kent) in "Who Do You Belong To", and Supergirl in "Something in the Water" (special team up with John Constantine).

Super Sunday: Superman Unlimited #3

Superman Unlimited #3 dropped last week and here's the summery: "When the towering terror of Toyman once again terrorizes the streets of Metropolis, Superman and Krypto are on hand to save the day — but in this new world of Kryptonite, even the murdering machinations of Toyman are supercharged with Superman’s Achilles’ heel! It’s a twisted turn of events as the Man of Steel uncovers a game-changing new use for this deadly substance, and it has the capacity to save the world? Plus: Jimmy Olsen moves to Gotham (careful, Jimmy), Tee-Nah of Gorilla City tries to fix Steve Lombard’s laptop (careful, Tee-Nah), and Intergang floods the streets — all in the latest installment of the emerald epic you’ll have to read to believe!"

Women Wednesday: Harley Quinn: Road Trip Special

There are several reasons why you should pick up Harley Quinn: Road Trip Special #1 (November 2015). First up is this cover featuring Catwoman, Harley Quinn and Poison Ivy:
Cover A of Harley Quinn: Road Trip Special #1 from DC Comics
The second reason is because of this cover featuring Poison Ivy, Harley Quinn and Catwoman in bikinis along with Bizarro sticking his head out of the trailer:
Cover B of Harley Quinn: Road Trip Special #1 from DC Comics
The third reason is because the story is full of fun and weirdness:

And the last reason is because Bizarro and Jimmy Olsen both show up:

Beware that this is not a kiddie book for there are some subtle nudity and adult humor in addition to the scantily clad women (I would rate this issue PG-13).
