This week was another doozy in the way of spending serious dollars. Lots of good stuff, and some mediocre stuff came out this week. Here is a brief rundown.
Wonder Woman #201- Finally some action! As Diana tries to get Vanessa aka. the Silver Swan to Themiscyra, she is shocked to see the ramifications of issue #200 have left the Amazons decimated. The fall out of what writer Greg Rucka has built is awesome to behold.
Captain Marvel #20- This is the Captain Marvel I have been wanting to see. Marv has his craziness under control, and Marlo is back!
Outsiders #9- Guest star Black Lightning goes to the devil with the rest of the team. Also, Grace swears more then usual, which is a seemingly impossible feat. Good stuff from Winick and Raney.
Adventures of Superman #625- Part two of the Michael Turner extravanganza! The story heats up as Kal-El must deal with the ramifications of his seemingly impossible powers. Pick this story arc up, Kids!
Robin #123- This issue is worth picking up for page one alone. Trust me.
Rose & Thorn #3- Holy split personalities! This issue the body count racks up as Ashleigh must fight to maintain the dominate persona. Great reading from Gail Simone.
Daredevil #57- The mystery mounts as Matt Murdock must defend himself from the Yakusa mob. This title becomes more dangerous and takes more risks with each issue. I can’t stop myself from buying it.
Batman: Gotham Knights #50- I have mixed feelings on this. The pacing of the story had me confused and resentful by the end of the issue.
Exiles #43- One of the most consistently good books I read. From Judd Winick’s run to Chuck Austen’s current goodness, being freed of continuity really works here.
Wolverine #11- Rucka ends the second story arc of his tenure softly. Logan tries to learn from his rage control issues and act more like a man. Hmmmm…
Weapon X #11- Jeff Johnson, late of Cross Gen pencils this issue. I love the outlaw nature of this title, and bringing in Chamber was a smart move.
Elektra #33- Just found out this title is ending with issue 35.
Kiss Kiss Bang Bang #2- still enjoying the inate naughtiness found here. I added it to my pull list at the local shop.
Time to go watch the series finale of Sex and the City now. Happy Reading!
