Here we go…
Action Comics #892 – I’m still not entirely sold on Cornell’s Lex, nor the Lois fembot that he seems set on pairing him with. It’s just not quite clicking. That said, it’s entertaining enough – and the Jimmy Olsen back-ups start soon!
Teen Titans #86 – Good lord. It’s like watching a car crash in slow motion, if a car crash had painful dialogue, poor plotting and poor characterization. Why am I buying this again?
Deadpool Team-Up #890 – Kind of surproised that this book has lasted as long as it has. Some hit, some miss -but Machine Man? Yes, please.
Fantastic Four #582 – Grumble grumble mutter mutter.
Namor The First Mutant #1 – If I was picking up new titles, I’d pick up this. But I’m not, so I’m not.
Spider-Girl The End #1 – Sniffle. So long, Mayday!
And on the trades front, things that will be with me shortly…
Siege Thunderbolts – this will be picking up on where I dropped the Tbolts, just when Parker came on board. Looking forward to this.
X-Men Inferno Crossovers – Don’t you judge me. This is a whole blog post waiting to happen!
It seems that Alice Eve is out of the upcoming X-Men First Class just weeks after I looked at some pictures and decided that yes, she’d make a pretty good Emma Frost. So, goodbye Alice…but hello the really rather spectacular January Jones! I’m surprised that Jones landed the role if only because she seems to [Read More...]
There are no big weeks anymore. Supergirl #55 – Still a bright spot in DC’s line-up,but I’m going to miss Jamal Igle when he goes. Amazing Spider-Man #640 – Second part of One Moment In Time was stronger than the first, with some surprisingly sharp writing. Maybe there’s hope for this arc yet. Web Of [Read More...]
Good lord. There are no words. Via
I missed this image over the weekend, or last week, or whenever it came out, although I did tweet about the news last week. In case I haven’t mentioned it, DeFalco and Frenz’s original Thunderstrike run – and their previous Eric Masterson Thor issues rank amongst some of my favorite runs. They’re not high art [Read More...]
I was recently asked on Formspring if I thought Cloak and Dagger would make a good movie – and the answer, of course, is hell yes I do. Not only are Cloak and Dagger favorites of mine, but I think their origin and dynamic would make for a great film. First off, their origin is [Read More...]
I haven’t even got to the comic store for last week’s picks (well, I did but the smoke evacuation of Midtown Comics meant I didn’t have a chance to actually buy the comics) so this week will be a double whammy. Red Robin #15 – I like the new pro-active stance that Nicieza is having [Read More...]
