A formidable fascicle, indeed. As yanked:
- Fairy Quest #2 (I want Humberto Ramos tested for PEDs. A simple flip through is all the evidence I need: this dude’s on fairy dust! Pretty, pretty.)
- Snapshot #2 (Cool cover and sweet b/w interior work by Jock.)
- Lost Vegas #1 (Recommended by the shop guy. Pass up an Image #1? Never!)
- All-New X-Men #8 (Ugh. This may be the last nail I was hoping for.)
- Green Arrow #18 (I see what’s happening here: Daredevil and Bullseye. Works for me.)
- Sex #1 (If you were expecting something else, you didn’t get it. A more honest title you’re not likely to find.)
- Swamp Thing #18 (Going in with an open mind–opened further by Paquette’s capable hands.)
- Winter Soldier #16 (Love the cover. That aside: this is the make-or-break issue. Actually hoping for make.)
- Daredevil: End of Days #6 (Will be one of the best books of the week. At this point, it can’t help it.)
- Shadowman #5 (It’s not every day that a comic makes the mainstream news. No, wait.)
- Bedlam #5 (I described it to my wife as “an ultra-violent book about the psychology of a serial killer.” She seemed OK with it. Full disclosure: she was pretty well locked into the final Wheel puzzle, so…)
- Animal Man #18 (Well, speaking of expectations: this one comes with–right on the cover! That, or a tragic how-to: how to effectively undermine a an otherwise suburb Jae Lee cover.)
- Colder #5 (This is it!)
- Dial H #10 (I’m totally ready.)
Does my list look like your list?
