Grabbed Lois Lane and Deadly Class but they didn't have Tomb Raider or X-files Conspiracy. I will have to stop at another shop on my way home.
 
Chew, Manhattan Projects, Black Science, Deadly Class, Three and Rat Queens were all awesome this week.

Three had a really good ending.
 
I'll say this about F4: I felt an overwhelming sense of dread as I realized Robinson could write good fun Fantastic Four stories but has decided not to in order to spite suckers like me.

It's a shame because when he tries Robinson is right up there with the best including people like Gaiman. His Starman run is the stuff of legends and The Golden Age is better than Watchmen in my opinion.

Holy fuck yes. Like, this is where the book becomes something special and awesome and great and the way it ties all its themes together is great.

ANYWAYS, sent the ballot for February's votening, which means as always since last month, I'm gonna get you in on the process with the stuff I cut from the shortlist. So, here are comics I liked a whole lot but a lot less than three other comics.

Wolverine and the X-Men #42
Loki Agent of Asgard #1
Batman And Two-Face #28
Uncanny X-Men #17
Secret Avengers #16

Off to the shop to finish off my collection of Arkham Wars, hopefully, and pick up any batman/flash I've missed over the past month

This a good run so far for someone who loves Avengers but isn't super into X-books? I'll probably pick up the trade but dunno if it should be a priority.

Yeah, it's worth a shot if you're a Marvel head. It's kind of an 80s Marvel comics that plays with 90s XTREME concepts in the context of 00s continuity (i.e. post-Disassembled, Civil War, and AvX). A lot of Claremont in there but Remender's gotta be a WCA fan too, dude brings back Wasp, Wonder Man and Scarlet Witch in by issue 5. Give it like 6-7 issues tho because the first arc sucks shit

Agreed. The first arc was really weak but ever since then it's been great. I actually feel like it's more of an Avengers book than an X-book, but with some really good interaction between the mutants and super-humans.

Cap and Havok are great together.
 
Next month I hope to be better at reading comics in a timely fashion so I can actually vote.

While I expected mine to be Ales Kot or Manhattan Projects related snark, this is effing hilarious.

This is far too much work. Who is the laziest comics writer/artist. Greg Land? I bet I'm lazier. Hey, maybe that could be it: lazier than Greg Land.

You work real hard on developing a Brand for yourself and all you get called is "tryhard" and derivative. Well fuck all y'all, I'm gonna talk about a comic I liked.

I liked Origin II #3 a whole lot, even if its One Weird Trick is the ol' Watchmen 3x3 grid.
