The Batman’s Grave #1 - Intriguing start to Warren Ellis’ Batman tale. I think I’m going to like this.
Sweet! Glad to hear. I'm going to do the Jimmy Olsen thing with this one. Get the first 11 issues but wait to start reading until right before the 12th and final one hits.
Went on another read/buy-fest yesterday and knocked out a good bit (for me at least
). Had to get my money's worth, especially after that DC cancellation announcement
But I also went ahead and got a few X books for some reason. I am still so interested in them, but ... well I will talk about it later. May go on a Empyre tour now too, keep using that Comixology Unlimited discount while I have it (I think I am going to only go one month ... maybe
). But honestly not sure about the Empyre thing ... I think I can easily wait on a Slott involved thing.
Did get the Pulp OGN that Jeff talked about though. Not sure when I will read it but for $13? Heck yeah!
Okay, enough jabberin'
DCeased: Hope and Worlds End #7 - Jeff and I just can't get on the same page with this
Was okay
Hawkman #18
Hawkman #19
Hawkman #20
Hawkman #21
Hawkman #22
Hawkman #23
Hawkman #24
Hawkman #25
Hawkman #26 This, while I would have waited if I knew there was a chance I could have gotten it in 6 months (or at least I think I would have waited
), was still, to me, worth it and was a damn fine read. Going to go over the state of Hawkman, which I now understand and love, over in the Hawkman thread soon, but yeah, this was nice!!!
Cable #2 - Wanted to give this one more shot as I have never been a "Cable" guy. I like it!
X-Factor #1 - This also hit for me. I like Baldeňn's art style (from that Domino series) so that helped.
X-Men #10 - Hickman writes with ... it is almost like his writing style has no empathy to it. There is nothing here that I can point to for me to have that feeling come to mind, but as much as I like his stuff, and I do, a lot, he also has a coldness to him at times. Now I understand that characters may dictate that by being in the story, but ... I don't know ... just something I see/feel from time to time. Didn't ruin anything by any means
I also found it funny that I read two of these in the exact opposite order as in the back of the books. Not that it mattered here, but didn't notice it until I got finished with the final book that I read the last book listed first and the first book listed last
Again, no big (or even small) deal, just found it funny that I chose the way I did.
