DC Universe 52 August 2013 (darkhomr) [KAT]

Todays pack includes all the DCU titles for August 2013. People ask me where I get my numbering from since i seem to be two weeks ahead of everyone else. Week 1 was a two title week, with only Flashpoint #5 and Justice League #1 being published. Week 14 was a light week with only one title from the 52 Universe. Fact is, its not the numbering that matters, its the content.
