Rich’s Pull List – 5th August 2009

A day late due to a great few days in Key Largo, but here’s this week’s list – and it’s decent sized…

Doom Patrol #1 – I’m intrigued. Not a huge fan of the characters, but I generally like Giffen’s work so I may – may - take a look.

Justice League : Cry for Justice #2 – First issue was hilariously bad and over the top as everyone went looking for “…JUSTICE!” but I’ll probably pick it up.

Superman : World of New Krypton #6 – Consistently good, surprisingly enough.

The Red Circle : The Hangman #1 – Another I may take a look at. I’m one of the few that liked the last iteration of the Archie heroes.

Agents Of Atlas #9 – A book that I’m not particularly enamored with that I just can’t seem to quit. All the pieces should work together here, but I’m not sure they do.

Amazing Spider-Man #601 – Last issue was great – and this time, MJ’s back. Good stuff.

Captain America Reborn #2 – Not 100% on Steve Quantum Leap-ing through time, but I trust in Bru.

Invincible Iron Man #16 – Fraction is really rocking this book. Pity he’s driving X-Men into the ground.

Spider-Man And The Human Torch HC – I have the mini already but I cannot recommend this highly enough. Five stories of Spidey & Johnny through their careers with great art from Ty Templeton and spot-on characterization from Dan Slott. Great, funny stuff.

War Of Kings #6 – This has been an excellent mini-series – an event done the way events should be; with high stakes, tight plotting and (hopefully) lasting repercussions. Excellent. Although…I fear for Crystal. She and Ronan have been the heart of this series and I can’t help thinking she may pay a price for that.

Buffy The Vampire Slayer #27 – Good grief, this is boring. Focus, people, please.
