Help
Flash: Rebirth #2 - I'm finally up to speed (lol) on what the current situation for Barry is, I just don't know how I feel about him turning into the new Black Flash. Is it Barry's turn to become the Parallax of the Flashes? The art is gorgeous as always, it's just the story that's making it difficult to really truly enjoy. But what do I know? I'm more of a 'Rogues' guy.
Superman: World Of New Krypton #3 - Very enjoyable issue! As we all know, Supes is the perfect candidate for hostage negotiator. And howabout that duel at the end? Even with all his powers, training with the likes of Batman, Wildcat, and others, proper fighting beats powerful punches any day of the week. My one issue is the Green Lanterns appearing at the end. Keep my Hal out of this continuity! He's out on the Vega system at this point!
Amazing Spider-Man #593 - I'm realling digging the aspect of Spidey being the good guy 24/7, just as a big 'Fuck You' to JJJ Jr. Try as they might, Spidey is just too cool for school...until this new Vulture came on the scene. Very cool "WTF?!" moment when his face was revealed, and very cool cliffhanger!
Invincible Iron Man #13 - It'll be interesting to see the new suit design Tony is working on...if he survives (dun dun duuuun!!!)! Add in Pepper Potts and her neat-o suit, and this issue was very entertaining.
War Of Kings #3 - Hey! An appearence of the Guardians of the Galaxy! I really like the idea of a Kree evolution invention to even the playing field, and hopefully they can get it up and running before the end of this series. Gladiator on the other hand? Nice backstab, and cool to see where his loyalties really lie.
Deadpool #10 - Leave Wade Wilson alone!!! Dude can't seem to catch a break when it comes to being hounded by Norman. The fight between him and Bullsey-err, Hawkeye was very funny, and I hope the action and humor continues next issue.
Irredeemable #2 - This series continues to be such a fun, creepy read. We follow one of the Plutonians ex-flames as she describes how they first met, his secret identity, and how he kind of loses his cool in front of everybody. One of the many early warning signs the guy was going to snap? Perhaps. If it's one guy who knows superheroes, it's Mark Waid. Can't wait for the next issue!
Battle For The Cowl: The Network - Cool to see Hugo in this issue, but I can't say I was really impressed with this one-shot. Of all the crossovers, this is one of my least favorites so far.
New Avengers: The Reunion #3 - I'll stick with Green Arrow / Black Canary from now on, thanks.
New Mutants #1 - Myself not being all that knowledgeable about the various mutant teams, this issue was hard for me to follow. And no offense to the creators, but since I don't care about the characters, I don't care about this series either.
The League Of Extraordinary Gentlemen: 1910 #1 - Hands-down my pick this week. I've been such a fan of the first two volumes, that this first issue put me right back into the thrill-ride that is LXG. I liked the new design of the Nautilus, and loved the new captian. $8 price tag be damned! This issue is well worth your money.
Destroyer #2 - I'm liking Kirkman's violent (uber-violent) take on this older character. I just wish when I'm that old, I'll still be battling monsters and rescuing kidnapped loved ones from my arch nemesis.
Cable #14 - I liked the different perspectives in this issue. You have Bishop, Warpath, and Hope, all seeing and thinking different scenarios. The confusion Hope has at the end is going to make the next few issues really interesting for poor Nathan!
Power Girl #1 - While I like her costume, I just don't care for her stories outside of Johns' JSA stuff. I'm sure Palmiotti and Gray are making the fans who love her happy, but I'm just not a fan of her. Talk to me when Scarlett Johansson is playing her in the film.
Final Crisis Aftermath: Run #1 - I thought this grade-Z villain was suppose to be a nobody? Who cares if he wanted Martian Manhunter dead! He personally didn't kill him! The only Final Crisis Aftermath title I'm actually looking forward to is Dance!
Agents of Atlas #4 - It was cool to see them fighting against Captain America, but was it really necessary to make the Agents of Atlas apart of Captain America and Bucky's history? Is Cap in this just to sell more books? I'm torn when it came to this issue, because it's been a fun series up until that.
The Boys #30 - A nice end to this...interesting arc. Dynamite has been pimping big stuff happening next issue, so I can't wait to see what's up.
Daredevil: Noir #2 - Bullseye Killer? Guess it had to happen sooner or later. If you're enjoying the current run on Daredevil, I recommend this mini series to you. It's a fun romp, but perhaps you'll want to wait to read it in trade.
The Mighty #4 - I knew something fishy was up with Alpha One! Now my suspicions have been confirmed. Very fun series by Peter J. Tomasi, and I'm glad I got on board with this one!
Solomon Grundy #3 - Gorgeous art, crappy story.
Jonah Hex #43 - I really liked the lack of dialogue in the first half of the book, and all the action told through art. The young gal could be the character Megan Fox is playing for all I know. But as usual, Jonah Hex blows me away.
Atomic Robo: Shadow From Beyond Time #1 - Interesting new story. I've personally never been a fan of H.P. Lovecraft and his Cthulu tales, but I am a fan of Atomic Robo! He reminds me of a mechanical Hellboy.
Bang! Tango #4 - I'll just wait for the trade instead of reading the last two issues I think. So much is happening, that I'm having trouble remembering the past issues.
Eminem Meets The Punisher (Marvel Digital Exclusive) - I wouldn't sign-up with Marvel's Digital service just for this comic. Mark my words, you'll see this mini story in the pages of Astonishing Tales to fill space soon enough.
What did YOU like this week?
