New Comics Day 6/18 & 6/25
New New Warriors with some Avengers attacking like jerks. I don't like the current interpretation of Captain America as Commander Jerkass. This is one case where I'd very much like to see the character move back towards the version in the film MCU...
Thanks to a friendly undead sorceror-king, King Conan gets the magic gemstone of McGuffin and heads back to his kingdom. To gather a big ol' army for a royal ass-kicking..
Non-royal Conan the Avenger parts ways with his new witchfinder friend in order to take a job guarding a sexy arrogant princess. Plus a nice speech from his dad in a flashback that a GM for old-school D&D can explain why barbarians won't adventure with wizards. Because fuck wizards, thats why...
The Unwritten: Apocalypse has Tommy and his friends and family begin their quest for the Grail. And Marionette lady and Ol' Man Killer make plans together...
Wonder Woman's eldest half-sibling, the Firstborn, continues to be a big violent, sulky baby even after conquering Olympus and Hades and I think the Ocean as well. Next up, the Garden of Life. Seriously, hes such an emo whiner...
Decided to get the singles for the new TMNT: Turtles in Time mini-series. Mostly 'cause the first issue is done by Ross Campbell who draws an awesome Ninja Turtle and some great dinosaurs and brain aliens as well...
Aku's latest attack on Samurai Jack involves a gravity manipulating spherical robot. You can guess how it works out...
In Adventure Time, PB explains to her people why they're all ghosts now. And then Finn & Jake figure out how to defeat ghosts with ghosts thru the power of cooperation...
So it turns out the missing Prince Robot of Saga has been at the intergalatic whore house of Sextillion. Which may be for the best as the social order in the Robot kingdom looks to be due for some shaking up...
Man, that is a lot of deaths in Invincible as Robot makes his play for global domination. And I'm not talking nameless background people. Like named, secondary characters. Seriously when making plans, a sign they're stupid and wrong should be "How many of my closest friends will I have to murder?"
Malcolm Dragon continues in his father's footsteps of getting attacked by super-goons and then getting yelled at for the people caught in the spillover in Savage Dragon. Plus his girlfriend's parents are still pushing her to date some nice Chinese boy...
Fatale closes in on its finale, with magic sex rituals and more revelations about Jo's past. Awful, terrible revelations...
The Wicked & the Divine is a new series from Kieron GIllen and Jamie McKelvie. The set-up here is that every 90 years, groups of "gods" reincarnate and hang around for several years, incarnated as teen-agers apparently...
And finally a new Alien Legion series from Chuck Dixon, Larry Stroman and Carl Potts. Stroman's pencils look a lot tighter and more focused than the last thing I saw him do (probably a random issue of X-Factor). Anyway, something Harkilon civil war something something refugees something. All that matters as the Legionnaires of Nomad will be at the forefront wading hip-deep in the muck and blood before long. I was dissapointed not to see the 'icks, who I'm pretty sure survived the last AL mini...
