Lots of comics for this week. Partly from me deciding to grab the Waid written Daredevil soft relaunch after seeing it praised damn near everywhere. And it really is a great supers comic. Waid manages to move past all the crap and angst of the last 10, 20 years for the character and without any mystic hand-waving or retcons. Plus it helps that ( Read more... )

More "Fear Itself" tie-ins still. With the Thunderbolts chasing after Norse Snake Fear God Thing-ized team-member Juggernaut. And Heroes for Hire has Paladin and Gargoyle attempting to stall a Fear-ized Ben Grimm, while Shroud and Elektra are tasked with dealing with some of the Raft escapees. Both are also using different artists. Thunderbolts ( Read more... )

I was really expecting comics to be delayed this week. But I guess comics don't care about veterans or something? And its a fairly large pull week as well...

Starting with a new Criminal arc, "The Last of the Innocent". Which I swear looks to be a noir version of that What if Archie Married Veronica comic...

And Avengers Academy is one of ( Read more... )

So my store finally managed to actually get in an issue of Proof: Endangered. Just as the mini-series ends. Oh well, at least they also had the first couple issues so there is that. I do have to say I like the sharper definition in the art. Less murky from the original run...

The Secret Six are still in Hell. And I'm still waiting for the big ( Read more... )

A very heavy pull-list this week, starting with a new Dungeons & Dragons. Where the head bad guy makes a classic mistake of interrogating a prisoner. Come on dude, kill first then interrogate. Thats what speak with dead spells are for...

And more fantasy goodness in Orc Stain with Bowie and Zazu continuing to wreak havoc in the prison camp, ( Read more... )

A fairly heavy haul to start off a new month with over a half-dozen titles from my pull coming in. Starting with a Man-Thing centered issue of Thunderbolts with a guest appearance by sorceress Jennifer Kale who is looking to spring her old friend from the super-slammer...

Then we've got the first issue of Annihilators where the proto-team meets ( Read more... )

I wonder why Midtown always has Knights of the Dinner Table listed as arriving a week early. I can't think of any other titles that always seem to consistently ship at different points in the month. Anyway, this issue mostly concentrates on the return of Gary Jackson and the reaction of the various Knights (including Johnny K who is sitting in) ( Read more... )

So this a day late. I had important things to do. Involving..er..sleep. And games ending in 'ville. Anyway we'll start with the new Heroes for Hire. Where Abnett and Lanning make me like Paladin. The purple clad mercenary. Man, that hasn't happened since I was twelve and he teamed up with the Wasp to fight the Grey Gargoyle in some random ( Read more... )

Another heavy pull this week. Helped along by the start of the second Incognito mini-series by Brubaker & Phillips. Which I somehow managed to miss when it came out sometime in the last couple weeks. Which has Zack Overkill going from super-villain to office drone in Witness Protection to government agent...

Sadly Young Allies comes to an end ( Read more... )
