Let's get this ball rollin'!

Blackest Night: The Flash #1 - Pick of the Week, hands down! Scott Kolins art is just beautiful, and Geoff Johns proves once more why only he should be allowed to write The Flash and all Flash characters. It was so much fun to follow Barry as he has demons of his own to face, one of them being an old friend, the other the ever pesky Reverse Flash. Can't wait to see where it leads to next! All around fantastic issue.

Siege: Cabal One-Shot - So the confrontation between Osborn and Doom was exciting, but this upcoming event is one that I'm not looking forward too whatsoever. Osborn taking on the gods? Please. No one's that full of themselves.

Dark Avengers Annual #1 - Cool new outfit for Marvel Boy, err Captain Marvel, but all that fighting against his own team felt really repetitive to me. Plus have you seen the pricetag for this issue? Totally not worth the money!

Blackest Night: Wonder Woman #1 - Greg Rucka has always written exciting Wonder Woman stories, and he continues to do so in this latest Blackest Night miniseries. Add in Nicola Scott's art, and you have yourself some wicked good fun! Maxwell Lord, The Unknown Soldier, all wonderful additions to this Blackest Night event.

Sweet Tooth #4 - Interesting turn at the end of the issue, and it makes me start to wonder whose side is Jepperd really on? The art continues to look great, but my only complaint is that some of the "younger girls" looked a tad-bit older because of the art.

Superman: World of New Krypton #10 - Adam Strange is innocent, and it's rather obvious. And don't the Kryptonians have their own CSI: franchise yet to know not to disturb a crime scene? Tsk tsk.

Ultimate Comics: Spider-Man #5 - I think Aunt May has truly lost her marbles. All those superpowered teenagers with raging hormones all in one house? Poor Gwen Stacey is probably going to be gang-raped.

The Marvels Project #4 - The introduction of Steve Rogers made this issue out of the series my favorite so far. Maybe it's because I felt like since it was a character I knew very well from current continuity.

Uncanny X-Men #518 - So wonderful to have Dodson back on art, after the reign of terror that is Greg Land. Also, killer twist at the end of this issue with the Void wanting Scott this entire time. Well, at least Emma Frost is back, and probably has a game plan to get her lover back. The X-Men is getting good once again, and I'm totally on board (as long as Land stays off).

Thor #604 - Not sure how I feel about Dooms mutated Asgaurdian army, but I'm sure I'll be feeling better when Thor smashes his face in with his mighty hammer.

Nova #32 - This issue was rather trippy with the time traveling. The bad guy was cool, but I don't know how I feel with Darkhawk, Nova and Reed Richards in Egypt trying not to disturb the future with the knowledge they already have. Maybe next issue will flow a bit smoother.

Haunt #3 - Nice series of revelations this issue, and some dark secrets discovered by the brother. This issue continues with the action, gore, humor, and all around fun for such a young series. Kirkman is doing a great job as far as I'm concerned.

Jonah Hex #50 - Whatta beautiful issue! Not only do you get an all-star creative team (Palmiotti, Gray, Stewart, Cooke), but you get a double-sized issue of nothing but Jonah Hex hunting down fifty men one by one. And to think Hex was this close to having a kid? The spawn of Satan almost arrived on Earth! Gorgeous, gorgeous stuff.

JSA All-Stars #1 - Not only is the main JSA series lacking at the moment, but this new series is dead on arrival! Both story and art gave me a headache, and I don't see this title lasting for more than eight issues. At least, for the sake of humanity, I hope it doesn't last more than eight issues!

Strange #2 - I'm not sure what Waid's gameplan is for this miniseries, but it feels like he doesn't have one.

X-Force Annual #1 - It was fun to see Kirkman have an entire issue all to himself for Wolverine vs Hydra action. The art was great, the story was exciting, I just had plain good fun with this issue.

Scalped #33 - Some pretty good moments are happening in this issue, everything from Diesel and Badhorse's criminally insane plan, to Redcrow taking his licks like a man. One issue left in this exciting arc, and I can't wait to see what Redcrow has in store.

Cinderella: From Fabletown With Love #2 - So she's paired-up with Aladin, and they're both looking for the same black market magical objects. I'm sorta on the fence with this series, but one thing is for sure; I'm in love with these covers!

The Mighty #11 - Alas, Cole finally get his big chance to kick Alpha One's ass! And boy does he give him the fight of his alien life! This series has just been fantastic, and I applaud Peter Tomasi for keeping me highly entertained throughout! This is going to make one beautiful hardcover.

Invincible Presents: Atom Eve & Rex Splode #2 - So I didn't like this issue as much as I enjoyed the first, but it still had its moments.

The Boys #37 - The origin story of the Frenchman was very ridiculous, but in the best way! I was laughing throughout, because it was all very silly and French. Next issue looks to be very darker though; the origin story of The Female!

Deadpool Team-Up #898 - You know, the Zapata Brothers and Deadpool make a pretty good team! I wouldn't mind seeing them in their own miniseries.

The Sword #20 - Finally this series returns, and it returns in style! Dara continues to be put in a bad light by Malia, and is forced to go on the run once more. Malia better watch out, because Dara's going to be bringing the pain these last few issues.

Fall of the Hulks: Alpha - The thing I found really funny about this issue was Doom has all these geniuses go collect all this information for him, then tells them all to go fuck themselves. Gotta love Doom for being a douchebag like that!

Supergod #2 - We get more back story about the world in this issue, but not that much action or HOLY SHIT! moments. However, I'm keeping the faith since this is Warren Ellis we're talking about here.

Psylocke #2 - Cool to see a little more of Psylocke's history, but her meeting the man who blows up everything might be a little boring next issue. He blows up everything and kills everyone; I get it.

Jack of Fables #40 - Very entertaining to see Jack as a dragon guarding his treasure, while Jack Frost beats the bad guys and wins the maiden. A must read series for Fables fans!

Savage Dragon #155 - This series is starting to lose my interest.

House of Mystery #20 - 'meh'.

Batman Confidential #38 - I'm not much of a fan of this Blackhawks storyline, but Zinda as a brainwashed Nazi? That's kinda hot.

Absolution #4 - Exciting to see the cat out of the bag this issue, as John Dusk admits to killing all the criminals, and with good reason. Now it's a fight against his old team, and it can't end well I'm thinking. Very good issue!

Red Tornado #4 - I must be going crazy; I'm starting to enjoy this series little by little! I need help.

Aliens #4 - Interesting end to this enjoyable miniseries. I really loved the art throughout.

Hulk: Winter Guard One-Shot - Interesting to see the Russian team go through many replacements in a short amount of time.

Black Widow & The Marvel Girls #1 - I liked the art.



What did YOU think of the comics out this week???

[pduffman004]

CINDERELLA FROM FABLETOWN WITH LOVE #2 (OF 6) (MR) - Eh, it was okay. #3 better pick up the pace.
GREEK STREET #6 (MR) - It wasn't fantastic, but enough to keep me intrigued for #7.
SWEET TOOTH #4 (MR) - Great, as always. My only complaint is that I finished it in 5 minutes.
DARK AVENGERS ANNUAL #1 - A bit pointless, but I loved Noh-Varr. I would read a series dedicated to him.
SIEGE CABAL - It was fun and, as my first Marvel Comics "Event," I'm looking forward to it. I think Bendis will make a good story.
SPIDER-MAN NOIR EYES WITHOUT A FACE #1 (OF 4) - I was skeptical, but this is a great continuation on the previous miniseries. I'm really digging how they've developed all the classic villains for Noir.
BOYS #37 (MR) - Fun and funny. FINALLY, The Female back story next month!
HAUNT #3 - A fun read and has kept my "is it pull worthy?" skepticism at bay.
