We have a large shipment of comic books headed to the Bunker today! This is a pretty big week full of some potentially great reads. First up is DC. Which DC comic am I most looking forward to reading? That one is real easy: Action Comics #844. C’mon, you have the dream team combination of Richard Donner and Geoff Johns! What more could you ask for on a Superman title? This should be a great issue.
Which DC title am I least looking forward to reading? Supergirl and The Legion of Super Heroes #23. This title hasn’t been a good read in forever. I seriously doubt that this issue will buck that trend.
Which Marvel title am I most looking forward to reading? That is tough. Either Brubaker title would be a good choice. However, I’m going to go with Ultimate Spider-Man #101. Bendis has been kicking so much ass on this title. The past several issues have been insanely good. Seriously, Bendis is really delivering something special on Ultimate Spider-Man. Bendis’ run on this title is officially hitting legendary status. This run on Ultimate Spider-Man is one of the greatest runs on a single title by any modern comic book writer. I cannot wait to read this issue.
Which Marvel title am I least looking forward to reading. That is easy. I just finished praising Bendis and now I’m going to slam him. New Avengers #24. The Civil War tie-in issues on the New Avengers have been abysmal. The only thing constructive to do with Bendis’ New Avengers Civil War tie-in issues is to use them for toilet paper. These issues have been poorly written, have advanced zero Avengers’ related plotlines and have been a total waste of time and money. I cannot wait for these Civil War tie-in issues to end so I can once again get entertaining Avengers related stories in the New Avengers title.
12 issues for The Revolution to attempt to review. I love all the followers of the Revolution and will try my best to post reviews for as many issues as possible. However, me having time to hit reviews on all 12 issues is pretty slim. As always, reviews should start rolling in by Thursday.
