Bro, that's way too confusing for me, haha.
It seems to begin right out of Cosmic Odyssey by Starlin and Mignola. I haven't read any of the Kirby Bug/Forager stuff, though, so I don't know how much of the stuff is new.

Yep, in the "Allred reviews New Gods covers" it was mentioned they're using Cosmic Odyssey as their starting line.

Flintstones #5-6
Finished the first TPB. This book hits homeruns left and right. 6 delves in Barney and Fred's military service. Such a good story. I have 7-11 queued up. I am so excited to jump right into them. I really hope the quality keeps up. And I cannot get over how awesome the art is.

But after I do I will literally be down to one Marvel book.

Injustice 2
I swear every chapter of this book makes me glee like a schoolgirl. Taylor just keeps doing cool shit. Oliver saying "What the hell is going on" was so perfect.
Shade
I'm not sure how I feel about this issue. I really liked the stand-alone feel of it, but at the same time it ended up feeling like padding as an intro to this new arc. Maybe being too nitpicky, it just seemed like a weird thing to do for most of the issue and then at the end have it turn to something more.
Bug
No clue what's going on or what it's setting up, but I like the seeming randomness of it. Plus points for the Pinky and the Brain bit.
All New Wolverine
Tom Taylor is great. He just makes fun shit. This could have been a boring ass story with an island being quarantined for a virus, but nah we're gonna have Wolvering chase down an ambulance and then end up having to get naked and be examined in it. It's all kind of dumb if you think about it too much, but it's still just fun.

If the humour isn't for you it won't work but I think it's one of Marvels cleverest books and I love when it gets very real for Gwen.

And it doesn't come across as forced when Hastings gives us that abrupt tone shift. So well executed.

Going back and forth on buying the new Mignola novel. I dot really want to read it but he tends to springboard this stuff in comics and it would be a nice collector's thing on the shelf.

Does it at least have a cool spine or cover?

The cover is awesome!
Plus I think there are illustrations inside. They tend to go out of print after awhile so should probably decide soon, you can't really get Baltimore or Joe Golem for retail price anymore.
I know he can't help commenting on it, but man Spencer's comments of Sam Wilson makes black people come off as a monolith.
It all sounds so smug and self serving. I get where he's coming from, but considering his past quotes it rubs me the wrong way. The President Obama quote was pretty apt, no matter how much he deserves the shield Sam was never going to be truly be Captain America for many of the citizens of the Marvel U.
I do like Christopher Priest's take on things.
I wonder if Spencer saw that quote and it colored his Captain America run. It's interesting because that Preiest quote in someway or another represents every Person who's dawned the Cap suit after Rogers.

Which surely won't immediately turn into the a new wave of people doing drive-by shittings on Nick Spencer comics they haven't read.
Well he is an asshole so that's fair.

I will fully admit that he's insufferable on Twitter. I genuinely love his work and I don't follow him. He was even worse when he was aggressively tweeting about politics all day and night, but even though he's stopped with the politics, he's still obnoxious.

Also this was a really good issue or whatever. Perfect capstone.

Does he? Because I bailed out of Thunderbolts after three issues because that was boring as fuck.
I wouldn't say he's stopped with the politics, his main two books are very poltical. I want to believe a leporad can change, but looking at his Steve Cap, Secert Empire, and his who nazi argument three the lens of his failed political campagin, and running on a platform of white fear makes me rather uneasy.

I just mean stopped with the politics on Twitter. It used to be 100% politics on that feed and you'd never know he wrote comics if his bio didn't say something.

Weapon X #3
Significantly better than the last two, though it helps that it's one big action sequence and not too much dialogue. Still, it's better and that's what's important.
X-Men Blue #3
This book is so bueno. It's been so long since I've felt good while reading an X-book. Bunn definitely managing to do new twists on old characters really well. Feels like this and his Uncanny run are like night and day in terms of quality.

These Immonen issues are drop dead gorgeous. I did think Bianchi and Ponsor are a mismatch.
These comics make me want to see the movies. Good job, Disney.

The amount of racist dog whistles in Nick Spencer's political positions circa 2005 is absurd.

This ending bit from Kim O'Connor on Nick Spencer is brutal
Here's my conclusion from Spencer's own writings as presented by Kim O'Connor in her piece: Nick Spencer, at least in the mind naughts, was a delusional bigot.

He sounds awful, but like...he's not a friend, he's not an colleague, and I'm not voting for the guy for office. He writes a comic book I read, and none of that shit is in the comic. He writes comics that the guy I'm reading about in that article would hate.
I've supported a lot of art made by a lot of terrible people. I'm very big on separating art from artist, and the thing I care about is the values represented in the work. Nick Spencer might be one of those terrible people. It's hard to say.
I mean, it's not hard to say that at least at the point in time written about in this article, he was a total piece of shit. But I don't honestly know who he is now. By all appearances he's grown a lot since that time, though he still has a ways to go. Do I buy that the transformation is genuine? I just can't say, from the limited access I have to the man. I would like to believe so, and I'm inclined to believe so, but you can never tell.
