Last month marked the release of MY GREATEST ADVENTURE, a six-issue anthology-style miniseries that chronicles the separate adventures of Robot Man, Garbage Man and the alien Tanga.

“Beauty and the Bat” by Aaron Lopresti and Matt Ryan, picks up in Gotham City, where Garbage Man had just made his return and was seeking out his old friend, The Reverend. But will a visit from Gotham’s protector, The Dark Knight, jeopardize Garbage Man’s journey of self-discovery?

In “Uncanny Valley, Part 2,” writer Matt Kindt and artist Scott Kolins continue the tribulations of Robotman, who last we saw, was being devoured by a restaurant full of angry zombies. Can Robotman preserve what’s left of his humanity by stopping what’s causing these people to turn into zombies without hurting them? And when he’s attacked by a giant mechanical beast, will Robotman have met his match?

And the last issue of MY GREATEST ADVENTURE ended with Tanga being stuck in a state of paralysis while she was forced to watch innocent people get murdered. Now, in “Tanga: Unloved,” by Kevin Maguire, she must gain back control of her powers and body before stopping the cruelty unfolding before her eyes.

MY GREATEST ADVENTURE #2 is in stores today.

Some have said that three is the magic number. If that’s the case, November should be a fascinating month. Here at THE SOURCE, we’ll spotlighting key third issues from DC COMICS-THE NEW 52 with an ongoing series of posts titled “3 Things You Didn’t Know About DC COMICS-THE NEW 52.” Expect the unexpected–in threes.

I can’t speak for the rest of DC Nation, but I continue to be reenergized by the direction of GREEN LANTERN.

Who’d have thunk that it would take Sinestro, of all characters, to do it? The GL nemesis now wears a GL uniform again…and this turn of events has transformed the series into the unlikeliest of buddy books, teaming Sinestro with his former protégé Hal Jordan. Seeing the two go back and forth has made the series a true joy to work on, thanks to the creative team supreme of writer Geoff Johns and artist Doug Mahnke.

Naturally, I’m super-excited for the series’ future, and here are 3 things I can share:

1. THIS IS NOT THE SINESTRO YOU REMEMBER.

Sinestro has always been known as the dictatorial GL who fell from grace and returned as the Green Lantern Corps’s greatest nemesis. Now Sinestro wields a GL ring once more — under mysterious circumstances, no less — and what he plans to do with it will likely surprise you as much as it did me.

In our first arc, we reveal a tragic secret about Sinestro: He has a beating heart, a fact Sinestro locks tightly away from the entire universe…until it unlocks for a millisecond. Explaining more would say too much, but watch for it — it could make Sinestro your favorite character in DC – THE NEW 52.

Is Sinestro a hero or villain? The answer is…yes.

2. THE RINGS CARRY SECRETS.

Sinestro revealed to Hal in issue #3 that the ring allows its bearer to create a “stealth mode” costume in black. We learn another doozy in issue #5.

What else does Sinestro know about the ring that we don’t? Stay tuned.

3. THE CORPS’S DAYS ARE NUMBERED.

At least, that’s how the Guardians of the Universe feel. As revealed in issue #3, they’ve deemed the Green Lantern Corps a failure, just as they once did the robot Manhunters that the Corps replaced billions of years ago. What exactly are the Guardians up to? They’ve been chatting about creating a “Third Army” — and what that is will become clear as the series slowly builds towards its next massive crossover with the other GL series. And THAT, DC Nation, will be so hugely momentous, it will quake the DC cosmos to its very core!

In the meantime, enjoy GREEN LANTERN for the here and now — Sinestro and Hal Jordan getting to know each other again for the first time.

What's the most Goggle-able series in all of DC's NEW 52? Why, FLASH, of course!

Followers of the Fastest Man Alive already know it to be among the most entertaining and electrifying series we produce, and that the team of Francis Manapul and Brian Buccellato have crafted a Flash for the ages.

But FLASH readers are also pretty hip to the fact that the series dangles crazy-sounding comic-booky science terms every other page. Stuff like "the law of congestion." Or "augmented cognition." And, get this, "pig-extracted extracellular matrix." What's even more mind-bending is that all of this seemingly made-up comic-book science is ACTUALLY REAL.

Go ahead, Google it all. We'll wait right here.

See, Francis and Brian pride themselves on applying cutting-edge science and technology to a series that understandably must move much faster than every other comic book out there. When you read it, you'll not only get a humdinger of a tale, you'll learn a really cool thing or three.

FLASH #3 is out next week, so be sure to reserve your copy now. I'm not exaggerating when I say this is a series that we'll all look back on someday and say, "Man, that was some of the most fun comics I've ever read..."

And those will be memories you won't need to Google.

Hitting comic book stores this Wednesday, JUSTICE LEAGUE #3 will see the introduction of Wonder Woman and Aquaman to the team that will become the World’s Greatest Superheroes. But these are not the seasoned heroes of their respective eponymous titles; they are younger, more arrogant. In short, they’re not team players – yet.

Even so, that doesn’t mean they can’t make things go BOOM when faced with an army of parademons. Artist Jim Lee visited the G4 studios to give them an exclusive first look at issue #3, and at the destruction that results when these superpowers get together.

Tune in to G4's X-Play today at 3:30pm PT/6:30pm ET to check out the sneak peek at JUSTICE LEAGUE #3 – and, a special bonus, Jim talks about Arkham City and DC Universe Online.

SPOILER ALERT: If you have not read THE SHADE #1, do not continue reading this preview or look at the preview pages after the jump.

Seriously.

Last month, THE SHADE #1 ended with a major cliff hanger and MTV GEEK named the comic as their #1 comic book for the month of October.

In tomorrow’s issue #2, we immediately learn that Deathstroke is not the only one thirsty for Shade’s blood. In order to discover who else is after him (and why!), Shade must embark on a globe-trotting adventure. The first stop? Hamburg, Germany, where the private investigator Von Hammer seems to have the first piece of the puzzle. But can Shade find the answers he’s looking for before the vicious beast Bete-Noire gets to Von Hammer?

THE SHADE #2 comes from the fan-favorite creative team of James Robinson and Cully Hamner.
