I may end up hitting the size limit here because I've got a lot of Hauls here. Since this is primarily a list, a very, very, VERY long one, I'm putting it behind a cut. I have additional notes on some things, but I'm going to do separate larger entries on some of the most significant things.

( And away we go... )

MARVEL
Chaos War: Chaos King one-shot - Brandon Montclare + Michael Wm. Kaluta. (I wrote about this when it first came out, because it's that good, so you might remember this write-up.) The welcome return of Kaluta's art to a full comic book. He's best known for his work on Starstruck and The Shadow, as well as a lengthy run on House of Mystery in ( Read more... )

MARVEL
Age of Heroes #4 of 4 - Jonathan Maberry + Shawn Moll do a Black Panther tale bridging Doomwar and Klaws of the Black Panther. An ice-entombed Captain America is central to the story by Elliott Kalan + Brendan McCarthy. There's a useless 2-page Zodiac piece by Joe Casey + Nathan Fox that's supposed to be a teaser, but doesn't let you know ( Read more... )

MARVEL
Deadpool Corps #4 - Victor Gischler + Rob Liefeld. This series is a bit of a mess, and when I say that I'm not talking about Liefeld's art. Even with a goal of “go stop that guy” for the arc, it still seems to wander fairly aimlessly. This title is teetering on the edge of being dropped, the main thing saving it being my love of the character ( Read more... )
