Amazing Spider-Man #589 - It reminded me of Spider-Man in the video game
Portal. Nice little one-shot, and I'm happy about Joe Kelly being on the Spider-Man Brain-trust now!
Batman: Battle For The Cowl: Commissioner Gordon #1 - Would Jim make a good Batman? Sure, if he was 35 years younger. But still, it's pretty impressive when despite your age you can take-down one of Gotham's biggest, coldest, baddies. Was it a fabulous issue? Not really. Was it fun and entertaining? Of course. Plus, it totally fits in with the
Battle For The Cowl event, so be sure to read it before the second issue comes out.
Batman: Battle For The Cowl: Oracle #1 - I think it's pretty obvious that by the end of this
Battle For The Cowl event, that Barbara Gordan will return as a certain Girl who happens to be a Bat.
Battlefields: Dear Billy #3 - Pick of the week. Ennis made me care for Carrie so much, that I understand why she did what she did. Very sad, powerful comic. Will look nice next to my
Night Witches trade.
Captain America #48 - Seeing a rampaging Namor was nice, but seeing the Winter Soldier bash a few heads in? Equally enjoyable. It was nice to see him take a short break from being Cap, and now that his little adventure is over, onwards and upwards to the next adventure!
Conan The Cimmerian #9 - Another solid issue. You don't try to get Conan killed with a broken sword, for there will be repercussions. Nice, tasty, horse crap-like repercussions.
Crossed #4 - So the rapists are evolving? Hm. While Ennis' great stuff on the writing spectrum involves
Dear Billy, this title is definitely on the other end.
Daredevil #117 - I like the team-up at the end. I'd rather have Fisk as the ally than the enemy in that situation. Can't wait to see what's next!
Death Defying 'Devil #4 - I enjoyed this mini-series more than the
Project Superpowers series. For the 'Devil, actions do indeed speak louder than words. I'd like to see more adventures between him and the Ghost.
Fantastic Four #565 - I've been getting more and more disappointed with this series. I had such high expectations for the series, hoping for that same excitement and thrill I got with their
Ultimates series. Now though, I just want Hickman on ASAP.
Guardians of Galaxy #12 - Very cool issue! Dragon of the Moon vs Phyla, Quasar, and Drax was fun, but the deal she had to make with it was eerie, and will probably come back to haunt her later. Next up,
War of Kings crossover!!!
Immortal Iron Fist #24 - I was really ticked-off when I discovered this was a completely different story from the 8th City storyline. However, it was still a fun issue focusing on this one particular Iron Fist. I'll be sad when this series ends at issue 27.
Jack of Fables #32 - Ewwwww. How did I sorta see that coming? It's a new low for Jack. Can't wait for the big Fables event next issue.
Justice League of America #31 - Oh no! This crappy Justice League is disbanding?? Darn.
Madame Xanadu #9 - Cool cameo by Zatara. Was hoping for Zatanna, but I'll take what I can get.
Mighty Avengers #23 - I fell in to a burning ring of fire. I went down down down, and the flames went higher. And it burns burns burns, the ring of fire. The ring of fire. TLDR; It burns.
Ms Marvel #37 - I always knew she was hot, but now she's literally on fire! Maybe she stood too close to
Mighty Avengers #23.
New Avengers #51 - It was nice to see Doctor Strange again! I missed him. Why can't he just apologize to the mystic arts and hold on to his title?? Nice Bendis banter in this issue too. Bitches love Spider-man!
Nova #23 - I really enjoyed the new form Richard took at the end. Kinda reminded me of Hal Jordan trying on all the different rings as of lately. Oh, and I think it's confirmed in this issue that his brother is going to die in the future, perhaps even after
War Of Kings.
Runaways #8 - Next creative team please. I love you on
Echo, Mr. Moore, but this perhaps isn't the right book for you.
Star Trek: Alien Spotlight: Tribbles - Very cute issue! Warmhands. Hungry. Grrr. Makes me want to track down all the episodes that the Tribbles have appeared in. Also, if anyone has a Tribble they'd like to sell, contact me.
Superman #686 - Nice to see John Henry Irons back in the Steel suit, especially after that horrible post-
52 miniseries he was in. It'll be interesting to see how these three heroes will work together and keep Metropolis safe.
Thunderbolts #130 - Deadpool crossover!! Glee!!! It was nice to see Deadpool on the offensive at the end of the issue, then melt like butter in the hands of Agent Hot-Chick. Works every time. I'd like to see an issue of Deadpool where he needs to kill an army of bikini-clad models. He just couldn't do it!!!
Top Ten Season 2 Special #1 - Pretty 'meh' issue. I was kind of expecting more from Cannon.
The Umbrella Academy: Dallas #5 - Very fun issue! It was cool to see a different Vietnam from Way & Ba. Viet Cong Vampires? Too cool. Just one more issue left, and I know it's going to rock my socks off!
Unknown Soldier #6 - Is this slated for just 12 issues, or is this going to be an ongoing? Because I hope for the series sake it's a mini.
War Machine #4 - From issue one, this has been a pretty boring series. Either too much action, or too much text is going on each issue. Sometimes at the same time.
Wonder Woman #30 - I love Gail Simone, I really do, but this series just needs to be put out of it's misery. I heard the DVD is fantastic though.
X-Force / Cable: Messiah War - Very cool issue! I can see the anger in the X-Force team from Cyclops teleporting them too soon, because there definitely were consequences. Cool cameo by Deadpool, and I'm super-psyched for this event now!!!
