Manhunter 35-38 - Well that's it. Seems like the final issues were rushed and ended with a time jump. They must have known they were cancelled and just quickly wrapped up. Left me a little wanting. Series as a whole was a lot of fun and I really enjoyed it. I just wish they could have finished it out a little better.

Fun little story and interactions between the three idiots. Only thing this might have about Wolverine is the name of a company that also shows up..... Hunt for Wolverine: Mystery in Madripoor 2 - .......here! Finally got a little connection. But this is about the X-Ladies vs Viper and her Fem Fatale's in Madripoor. Not bad. Not great. Not a must read. Hunt for Wolverine: Weapon Lost 3 - Best of the bunch. It's a detective comic using Daredevil, Cyber, Misty Knight, and Frank for the Inhumans. I'm enjoying this mini. Hunt for Wolverine: Admantium Agenda 3 - Worst of the three (might just be b/c of the art). I'm just getting through it in case that company name comes up again. Which it could since is the villain.

RIGHT? But luckily ... COMICS!!!! Okay, as for THIS week * = from last week ... or earlier Aquaman #44 Batman #62* Batman #63 Detective #995* Freedom Fighters #2 Heroes in Crisis #4* Shazam #2 (hope this hits better than #1 did) Wildstorm #19 Electric Warriors #3 - Uh-Oh, things are going south for me with this book. The enjoyment factor is going down. Hope it starts back up with next issue or I may not even finish the last two issues. Avengers #13 Crypt of Shadows #1 War is Hell #1 - this along with Crypt, two one-shots I have been waiting to read Guardians of the Galaxy #1 - Cates new ongoing!!!!!! Friendly Neighborhood Spidey #2 - Can the second issue be as good as the first? Man Without Fear #4 Marvel Knights 20th #5 - a weak Dr. Doom? What?!?! Something must be up for (this guy) to beat Doom! Amazing Spider-Man #13 - Having not read an issue for a few months, only because I want to read this in chunks, I decided to see if jumping in at this issue would leave me feeling lost. It did, but not unlike any other comic you just jump into. Seems like old times. Where in the past I would ride my bike up to 7-11 and look for the precious issue (or last two if I got lucky!!), this issue left me feeling like I want to read issue #12 now. That is good for any comic! Criminal #1* Die #2 * Die!³ #5 * Die!³ #6 * Die!³ #7 Babyteeth #14 * Walk Through Hell #7 - Okay, I got lost here. I need to re-read this one. I get it, but I don't get most of it. Isola #6 - A book this beautiful and well, down right mesmerizing, should be on everyone's "read" list. But a book that takes 10 seconds to read, like this is almost every issue, should not be on anyone's "buy" list. Only buy in trades and then only if the price is right. That said ... DAMN I LOVE THIS BOOK!!!

Your a better man than me. I dropped after issue 1. Electric Warriors #3 - Uh-Oh, things are going south for me with this book. The enjoyment factor is going down. Hope it starts back up with next issue or I may not even finish the last two issues.
I decided to wait until the TPB came out to try. That gives me time to see if you make it to issue 5 or 6. By then I'll know if you like it enough for me to buy. Isola #6 - A book this beautiful and well, down right mesmerizing, should be on everyone's "read" list. But a book that takes 10 seconds to read, like this is almost every issue, should not be on anyone's "buy" list. Only buy in trades and then only if the price is right. That said ... DAMN I LOVE THIS BOOK!!!
Take a look at my list.

Astonishing X-Men 13 - First issue of Havok’s team and I like it.
Quicksilver: No Surrender 3 - I like the introspect into Quicksilver here even though it’s nothing new.
New Mutants: Dead Souls 5 - better issue than the past ones. I guess it’s turning around here at the end.

EXACTLY. This arc had the impact of a syrup soaked pancake tossed off a garage roof.

Well don't have too high hopes for extinction. Okay, it isn't as bad as all that I suppose, but then again I didn't read the other so I can't compare. I guess it's okay, great art but the story had me a little ... lost I guess? Not being an X reader for a few I only have myself to blame. Hopefully it will hit better for the rest of you guys, though I am wondering about the end and how that will be taken. If you don't know already. Edit - And Jeff, Re: Lockjaw ... Yes, it hit me the same way. Even when we know, it still hit, it was still sad Edit2 - Oh yeah, guess I could've posted some books, huh? Added - Old Man Hawkeye #6 Old Man Hawkeye #7 Old Man Hawkeye #8 - Don't really agree with how they handled Thor (really?) but still a great read. Thor #1 (Re-read)Asgardians of the Galaxy #5 - With the next "major event" right around the corner ... and I post this --> even though I am kinda excited about this one , I figured it was about time I got caught up with the major players. Oh, and while I didn't really enjoy, like or agree with they way Ethan Sacks handled the "Thor thing" in Old Man Hawkeye, I will say that I really do appreciate that it was A great shout out to the old days! Aquaman #44 Batman #62 Batman #63 Detective #995 Freedom Fighters #2 Heroes in Crisis #4 Shazam #2 Wildstorm #19 Electric Warriors #3 Avengers #13 War is Hell #1 Man Without Fear #4 Marvel Knights 20th #5 Amazing Spider-Man #13Crypt of Shadows #1 - Meh. Kind of a let down. Did feel like an older book though, so maybe good for that Guardians of the Galaxy #1 - Will post about later Friendly Neighborhood Spidey #2 - I know Jimmy has issues with Nick Spencer, and I get that, mostly , but I give him major credit getting these two titles (Friendly Neighborhood and Amazing) the creative teams they currently have. Those two Spider titles are knocking it out of the F'n park!! Best Spidey in years, with Friendly being perhaps the surprise of the two Criminal #1 Die #2 Die!³ #5 Die!³ #6 Die!³ #7 Babyteeth #14 Walk Through Hell #7 Isola #6

It’s a good thing your reading these two back to back. Tom King must be on acid.

Aquaman 40-42 AND Justice League 10 & 11, AND Aquaman Justice League 1 (which, is not to be confused with Justice League Aquaman 1 DAMN YOU DC HOW DAMNED DUMB WAS THIS NAMING? SERIOUSLY?! WHO THOUGHT THIS WAS A GOOD IDEA? I PUT IT BACK ON THE SHELF BECAUSE I DIDN'T KNOW THE NAME CHANGE, AND BOTH SAID VARIANT COVERS WTF MORONS!!!!)
-Um, towards the end of Drowned Earth, I actually really came to enjoy it. Once the realization of what the old Sea Gods represented, who they were, why they felt that way, and what caused all of it, I felt it was pretty solid in its foundation. A pretty solid Aquaman is the hero we all needed story, without being hammy or kitschy for doing so.
Justice League 12- ok, Joker taking on the LEgion by himself is pretty cool!!
Terrifics 9 & 10-a perfect jumping off point! Lemire finished! The team met their goals! Everyone separates! No need for me to continue!!
Shazam 1- Um...Eaglesham needs to pull back on the delts, traps and lats. Good god. Everyone has a jaw like Stan Smith from 'American Dad' too. That said, it's a start, it's obviously pulling from Johns' Shazam run in the back of the Justice League title from 6 YEARS AGO, but hey, at least it's consistent that way! Still so weird to see Freddie as a long haired blond. Just...not...right to me!
Adventures of Super-sons 4 &5-again, just to say, DAMN YOU BENDIS. This Jon is forever gone now for whatever bullshit you wanted to write. *sigh* **ahem**. Getting back, a really cool dynamic still through these issues, love the Split superboys, and the future dreams of their owns was such a cool meta way to show how they view themselves growing up with each other around.
-minor caveat, I'm sorry about the Bendis bashing. Sorry/not sorry, as I feel that I will be proven right in the end when his stories again become pedestrien without any real consequence or forethought of how to continue to an 'ending' of his arcs or story pushes.

But is he? What if, and I have no knowledge of this, but what if Bendis only has him age for one arc of one story? And not to say I don't do the same thing because I do , but shouldn't we at lest wait to see what the writers plans are before we complain about what they are doing at the start of an arc?

Batman 63 - Like I said up top. Trippy.
Freedom Fighters 2 - still in the beginnings of this story and so far it’s really good.
Britannia: Lost Eagles of Rome 1 - 4 - Eh. Just ok, not great. I won’t pickup anymore Britannia mini’s.
Gideon Falls 9 - getting closer to some answers I think.
ISOLA Vol 1 (Collects issues 1-5) - I’m sure Perry is scared to death I won’t like this. But he’s in luck! I like it! Absolutely love the art. A littl Don Blume like but better. Well that’s not completely correct. It isn’t cartoonish like that. Very sharp and clean yet mysterious. I’m making no sense at all but the art makes the book. This isn’t something I would expect Perry to love so much, story-wise. I’m seeing our friend in a whole new light. Seems like we barely got started in these first five issues so I’m looking forward to the next one.
