“What’s up?” you ask? Yeah. It’s more like what isn’t up. Keeeeey-riced! Check it:
Crisis of Definite Comics
- Action Comics #17 (DC): Promises to be epic. Either way, Morrison’s last will be mine as well.
- Animal Man #17 (DC): Wondering where this is going to go after Rotworld.
- Dial H #9 (DC): Didn’t kick off 2013 the way it stomped through 2012. Expectations are still dialed up pretty high–and maybe that’s the problem.
- Green Arrow #17 (DC): Lemire’s run begins. Will it be a bull’s eye or another quivering misfire?
- Swamp Thing #17 (DC): Not caring where this is going to go after Rotworld. As with Morrison’s Action, Snyder’s last will be mine as well.
- Daredevil: End of Days #5 (Marvel): #4 was really good. In fact, halfway through, this mini has been surprisingly effective.
- Ultimate Spider-Man #20 (Marvel): Venom? Gag–unless he’s going to be used in an unexpected manner, which is totally possible. Bendis has earned a long leash– even with a poisonous character like the toxic tongue wagger himself.
- Harbinger #0 (Valiant): Great stuff. So great, in fact, that I’m not worried about a zero diversion. Not in the least.
- Shadowman #4 (Valiant): Didn’t expect to get this far with it.
- Snapshot #1 (Image): Looks interesting enough. Don’t have much experience with Diggle. I’m jumping on because of Jock, who has been doing some transcendent work on the Batman back-ups, or extensions, or whatever they are.
Snapshot #1
- Garth Ennis’ Red Team #1 (Dynamite): Ennis is so hot right now he’s impossible to pass up.
Garth Ennis Red Team #1
- Colder #4 (Dark Horse): Started off so well. Unfortunately, has fallen faster than Declan’s body temperature.
- Fairy Quest #1 (BOOM!): Jenkins and Ramos? Come on: definitely worth a shot.

Is This a Comic Which I See Before Me?
- All-New X-Men #7 (Marvel): Mainly because of Marquez. Also because I’m an idiot.
- Winter Soldier #15 (Marvel): Brubaker’s take is THE take, no doubt. But why not try someone else’s take for at least an issue or two? Can’t be worse than Remender’s Captain America for goodness sake.
- Dia De Los Muertos #1 (Image): I’ll give it a quick flip. Rossmo’s certainly worth a maybe.
I wonder if I’ll be able to buy some time, too; I’m gonna need it. Yow-to-the-za!
What are you looking forward to? Anything else I should keep an eye out for?
Turning pages,
