Hero Of The Week-  Once again, in this final week of the month, we have Batman, Superman, and Wonder Woman with a shared total of 5 Appearances: Wonder Woman took Gold with 28 Points, Superman took Silver with 22, and Batman took Bronze with 20 Points.

Antagonist Of The Week – It was all about the performance of single appearances this week for the Antagonists. Doctor Alchemy emerged triumphant with 9 Points. The top heroes of the lower alphabetical register had a tight race, with Upside Down Man grabbing 7 Points, and Zebraman taking the MVP title in Suicide Squad with 6 Points.

Book Of The Week- Several Series finales duked it out for the title, but Aquaman #65 takes it with 55 Points between 15 Characters. If we omit Aquaman because of last week, then Batman takes it, with Detective Comics #1030 scoring 50 Points between 10 Characters.
