Sunday Reviews #4

Cable and the X-Force #7 - I'm torn on this book. On the one had I love the dialogue. The characters all have a good patter. Its possible that its a bit too relaxed with the situations that they're in, but its fun. Especially the eternally frustrated Forge. Unfortunately the book itself doesn't seem to make a lick of sense. The first arc had the team infiltrating a fast food giant to stop some kind of virus and the second has them stealing a spaceship to get an intergalactic criminal off planet. Because... reasons. I have no idea. Its probably related to Cable's visions of the future, but we don't know anything about them except that they're happening and that we've seen foreshadowing that they're being caused by someone. With the current 90s character revival at Marvel I'm predicting Strife will be back. Or Adam-X the X-Treme. And since Rick Remender isn't writing it it'll probably suck.

Iron Man #8 - I've really started to take note of when Kieron Gillon is on a book lately. I read Phonogram back when it came out in TPB but it didn't do much for me at the time. Recently he's been doing a hell of a job on his Marvel books. This week we got the final part of the Godkiller arc in which Tony Stark is on trial for his life for the crime of killing The Phoenix. Trial by combat that is, and without his armor at that. He held his own against the various combatants of the people prosecuting him since he's actually been in a fight before, but not wanting to loose the trial they bring in Death's Head to throw down. And throw rocks. And throw Tony. Of course he escapes, and we get an appearance by the Celestials as well as a set-up for the ongoing villain of our space opera. Greg Land's art wasn't even as stiff as normal since he actually had to draw some of the issue. You can't photo-reference a porn star for a Celestial.

Wonder Woman #19 - A year and a half later and I can say for certain that this is my favorite book out of the DC relaunch. Now I've seen a lot of complaints online that this is nothing but people sitting around talking. And it is. It completely is. I guess the people complaining about it don't have any interest in politics because Wonder Woman is all about betrayal, backhanded deals and hidden information. The only thing that I don't like about the book is Good Time Orion. At first I enjoyed him not being nothing more than a one note character that was always angry but his portrayal in the last few issues with him being little more than a frat boy hanging out has gotten on my nerves. Fortunately it looks like he's moving on here, or at least progressing his story. On the art side we had two different pencilers and two different inkers who were all trying their best to do a Cliff Chiang and not succeeding. Hopefully we'll have him back next issue.

Comics for the Week of 02/20/2013

When it rains it pours...

Dark Horse

B.P.R.D. 1948 #5 - I once read a quote from Mike Minogla where he said that his biggest regret in Hellboy was killing Proffesor Bruttenholm. With the 194X series hes gotten to correct that and let us see him in his prime. Its quickly become my favorite looks into the BPRD universe. The Gabriel Ba and Fabio Moon art on the first two minis probably helped with that.

DC Comics

JSA: The Liberty Files: The Whistling Skull #3 - I can't get behind this series at all. When I went to read issue #2 I got about two pages in and quit. The only reason I'm getting this is because our less then stellar comic order system requires me to order the first 3 issues before I get to read a page and I don't want to stick my retailer with something he'll never move.

Legion of Super-Heroes #17 - I still haven't gotten caught up on this. I've been reading The Song of Ice and Fire books in my spare time.

Nightwing #17 - So my LCS didn't get Batman #17 in last week at all so I'm not sure if I should read this or wait. If I knew he'd be getting it this week or next week it'd be obvious but that amazing comics deliver system keeps me guessing.

Wonder Woman #17 - So this can just keep being about WW and Orion hanging out and meeting family members and I'd be 100% OK with that.

IDW

Locke and Key: Omega #3 - Joe Hill is a son of a bitch. Issue 2 was probably one of the most depressing things I've read in a long while and things are only supposed to get worse from here. I expect that the last issue will cause mass suicides up and down the east coast.

Image

Happy #4 - This series really hasn't lived up to its potential. It was solicited as a burnt out ex-cop hunting a child stealing psycho on Christmas eve with the help of a kidnapped girls imaginary friend. Instead we get said ex-cop not giving a shit for 3 issues while said imaginary friend harasses him about it. I expected more from Morrison. Robertson's pencils have been exactly what they;re supposed to be. For someone who specializes in gritty, filth filled worlds he draws one hell of a tiny winged blue horse.

Saga #10 - I was at a store that isn't my normal LCS on Saturday and they had several issues of this in thier 50% off bins. I pulled them out but got distracted by the MTG tournament I was in and didn't get to pick them up. As for the next issue, its going to be great. Its Saga. 

Marvel Comics

Avengers #6 - This is the last of the spotlight issues for now and this time  its focusing on the new Captain Universe. From what we've seen she's a little... unhinged. Most of her dialogue from the few appearances she's had have been fairly random. I don't believe we know who has the power right now either. Hopefully this will help us make more sense of the character because right now she makes none.

Captain America #4 - ARNIM ZOLA WILL CONTROL ALL!

Indestructible Hulk #4 - I'd really like this to be all about Bruce's new lab techs. There's not much point in having a supporting cast if they don't get any screen time.

Superior Spider-Man #4 - So Doc Ock's secret is out of the bag for at least one person, which is good because the whole Spider-Dick thing was getting old faster than I expected it to. I'm expecting some cat and mouse games here before the change in issue 8.

Thor, God of Thunder #5 - The last page of #4 was an pretty sweet cliffhanger. Young Thor has come to the future to help Old King Thor, and judging from the solicits we'll be getting more temporal shenanigans afterwards. I love a good time travel story and I expect Jason Aaron to pull off something sweet here.

Oni Press

The Sixth Gun #29 - Somehow I missed #27 and #28. I'm going to go rectify that right now...

The Sixth Gun: Sons of the Gun #1 - I think releasing these on the same day was a pretty big mistake. Marvel has shown that buyers are more than willing to buy comics more than once a month, but if your goal is to follow The Sixth Gun they are effectively double shipped it in the same week. Had they put this out two weeks from now I'd be a lot less weary about picking it up this week. As is I'll likely wait until the ComiXology drop happens.

And as usual, the rest of the list

Comics for the week of 01/23/2013

DC COMICS

JSA: The Liberty Files: The Whistling Skull #2 - The first issue of this did NOT hook me at all. Its a shame because I lived both of the previous Liberty Files minis. Part of the problem is probably the title character of The Whistling Skull. He was originally planned to be a creator owned property who has somehow gotten folded into the Liberty Files line. He's really not working for me, and since he's the focus of the first issue it didn't work for me. I'm hoping issue 2 will bring more of the characters I enjoyed from the first two minis back.

Legion of Super-Heroes #16 - I still haven't gotten caught up with my Legion reading. I think that'll be a project for the weekend if I have a few free hours.

Nightwing #16 - It seems like I'm alone in my feelings on Death of the Family. I think its boring as hell. I'm otherwise enjoying Kyle Higgens Nightwing run. He's been focusing on Dick's circus past and his interactions with the Daughter of Tony Zucco, his parents killer. I'd like to see more of that and less tie ins.

Wonder Woman #16 - Brain Azzarello did the impossible twice for me on this book. First he got me  interested in reading a Wonder Woman ongoing. The second was to portray the Greek Gods in a manner that I can get behind. Normally they're done more cartoonish when used. Instead he focuses on the laundry list of flaws that define each of the Gods making them infinity more relatable. And while I'm not normally an "Art Guy" I just marvel at what Cliff Chiang does on this book. His character designs are perfect. They tell you so much about the character before they ever say a word.


Image Comics

Bedlam #3 -  After being jerked around by Morning Glories for twenty some issues and finding Thunder Agents to lack any kind of direction I had written off Nick Spencer. I picked this up solely on the recommendation of James Tynion IV. And I'm glad I did because its creepy as all hell. We've got a psychotic unwillingly trying to turn his life around and doing a terrible job of it. I just hope it can hold itself together instead of spiraling out into nothing like Morning Glories did.

Marvel Comics

Avengers #3 - I loved the first issue of Avengers. It was everything I want in what should be Marvel's flagship title. It had an epic feel to it that the so called event books never seem to capture. The secnd issue took a step back and gave us all of the new members a character moments. Both ended in the same place and I'm anxious to see how it comes together.

Deadpool #4 - I'd say about half of the jokes in this comic land. I doubt I'll be reading much past the current Dead Presidents storyline. Maybe if they keep the ghost of Ben Franklin around as a sidekick...

Uncanny Avengers #3 - This was supposed to be the centerpiece of the Marvel NOW launch and it might have been if it had shipped on time. Rick Remender is a writer who I've been paying a lot more attention to lately. I remember him doing the podcast circuit pretty hard about 5 or so years ago talking up creator owned books hard. Its a little odd for me to see him on so many company owned comics now. He's destroying them though, so I'm not going to complain. In a really odd twist John Cassaday's art might be the weakest part of this title. It might be a symptom of trying to meet his deadline but his art hasn't had the usual WOW factor on this that I've come to associate with him.

Uncanny X-Force #1 - So I just finished Remender's run on Uncanny X-Force a week or so ago and it was fantastic. Which means no matter how good this is it'll likely be disappointing because  its going to be compared to the last run. I'm still not even sure that I'm picking it up. I've yet to read anything by Sam Humphries so I don't know what to expect there. I might end up getting it just to see what the deal with Fantomex is going to be. I've got a soft spot for faux Frenchmen.

Wolverine and the X-Men #24 - Well I'm glad the last arc is over. The Frankenstein story was an issue too long and didn't do much of anything with the main cast. It seemed to serve nothing more than to make a change to one of the villains of this run. Despite that the Hellfire Club still hasn't gotten a whole lot of screen time here. I think if Aaron wants to keep shifting the focus onto them we need to get a proper arc with our students dealing with them instead of indirect moves and Wolverine grumping.
