Batman/Superman: World's Finest, Vol. 1: The Devil Nezha Batman/Superman: World's Finest, Vol. 1: The Devil Nezha by Mark Waid
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

In another mythology-based adventure, the dynamic duo, plus their sidekicks team up with the members of the Doom Patrol, to combat an ancient demon released from its seal (yes, another one, makes one wonder, just how many sealed malevolent entities are just camping around this universe).

The story is pretty run of the mill, hits the usual notes, Superman gets mind controlled (basically everyone gets mind controlled, except for Batman cause he's the freaking), Bats being his usual badass stuff, some fun banter between Robin & Supergirl.

The highlight of the story has got to be the brief but Awesome inception of BatSups Lantern over here.

Batman-Superman-2023-1

Gosh, I really hope that the writers never run out of fun ways to combine two of the best comic heroes out there.

ഓട്ടോറിക്ഷക്കാരൻ്റെ ഭാര്യ | Autorikshawkkarante Bharya by M. Mukundan My rating: 3 of 5 stars In a series of short stories, M. Mukundan, the eminent writer of Mayyazhi, paints for us the day to day, slice of life fictionalized tales of the people in everyday lives. The tales he composed range from OK, to good, to head scratching, to thought inducing, a full cornucopia. But sad to say, there isn’t much meat to these stories, a collected anthology from the stories he’d penned in various news publications. Mukundan himself seems the most soulful and engaging, when delving into the semi fictional tales that he crafts about his beloved Mayyazhi; with its colorful history and ever more colorful coterie of characters. Out of all the collections of stories which are printed here, the one which connected with me the most, is the one titled ‘Malayali Daivangal’ (Malayali Gods). The tale is about a French tourist couple that come to visit Mayyazhi and Kerala

മീരാസാധു | Meerasadhu by K.R. Meera My rating: 4 of 5 stars Tulasi is a middle aged woman, who in the present of the story, is residing in Madhura, in Vrindavan, as a Meera Sadhu, a female ascetic who is the bride of Lord Krishna. Living in squalor, and with no possessions or attachments, she is someone who nonetheless harbors an intense hatred in her heart; with unhealthy doses of resentment, self loathing, guilt and anger against this cruel world. What happened to her? She was not like this in the past. Then, younger, an Academician, Tulasi was a gifted student of a National university, with a future as bright as the sun ahead of her. That is, until she met Madhav, her soon to be lover, husband, father of her children, and destroyer of lives. Quite a piece of work, Madhav, as they got closer, had boasted of the dozen or so women with whom he had a relationship with in the past, all of whom were madly in love with him. For Madhav, like his namesake
