Anyone seen this?

Adrian Alphona concept art of Ms Marvel's family. I thought his rough cover looked a bit odd but I really like this.
 
Layman crafted a really cool Jim Gordon story in Detective Comics this week. Told a really cool origin of the
Bat signal
among other cool things. I would add a book like this to my pull in an instant. Hopefully that's what Layman does on his part of Batman Eternal.

In Anthology Comic News: Batman Black & White #3 has a Paul Dini / Stéphane Roux Harley & Ivy story and I know y'all are down with that so this is your heads-up, it's also got plenty of other goods but y'know, know your audience and all that.
 
He's grandfathered in, plus it's not like he's seen a whole lot outside of batgirl.

Yeah, it seems maybe DC decided that facial hair = old. Too bad. At least Aquaman has his beard back, right? But no hero with dark hair is allowed facial hair? You'd think if DC wanted to be down with kids today they would have more beards. Beards are where it's at.

Hey so you know there’s a new Ms Marvel series coming up, right? Written by G Willow Wilson and drawn by Adrian Alphona? Well, I had the honour of designing her costume, and here it is! The idea was to mix in a bit of her own style, a bit of Captain Marvel (her hero), and a little of the classic Cockrum Ms Marvel costume.

Bought it for that story.
 
I'm definitely interested in the new Ms. Marvel book. My only concern is her power set. I'm not so sure how I feel about what is essentially a female Plastic-Man.

Interesting development in Forever Evil pertaining to Capt Cold.
No more meta gene

Skimmed it after I picked it up but I'm happy about this. I hated the meta-human 'twist'.
 

Pie and Beans

Look for me on the local news, I'll be the guy arrested for trying to burn down a Nintendo exec's house.
Ultimate Cataclysm or whatever was terrible. What the hell was I thinking.

Everyone was Bendis Teen-speak. I'm pretty surprised Galactus isn't saying things like "Hello. Oh. Yes. Hm. Well.... I am here to eat your planet. Sort of. Okay?"

Not feeling Ms Marvel still because my Juno/Tumblr Fashion Blog Diary alarm is sounding at full pitch.

My issue with Ultimate Cataclysm was that nothing seemed to happen. I read the book in two minutes and was confused I got to the end already.

Action Comics has me wishing DC had stuck with "casual Friday" Superman longer. The best new 52 Supes stories have been that version.
 
Finally got around to finishing Battle of the Atom last night (after the long catch up of Wolverine & the X-Men).

Overall it seemed to ask more questions than it answered and I'm left wanting.. Another event I guess?

On the bright side, it got me into W&tXM which I've really been enjoying.

Anyone have thoughts on the Pet Avengers? Girlfriend wants me to find a few trades to buy, so I'm curious to know if they're at least fun reads since she isn't expecting to be blown away with serious content when it involves Lockjaw and Frog Thor.

I liked that the cliffhanger was the same thing that had already been happening for 10 pages.

Zero #2 was pretty outstanding. Really enjoying a lot of stuff Ales Kot is writing.

Pretty Deadly #1 was ok, generally interesting first issue, i dunno if I'll get anymore anytime soon though.

Sex Criminals #1 is an OK premise, and was pretty funny, but the first issue ending seemed a bit quick and hoaky. Who knows.

Afterlife with Archie #1 was oddly satisfying in some strange way. Never read much, if any Archie. Still enjoyed it.

Reading through Craig Thompson's Carnet de Voyage and damn it is good, the shit he pisses out for fun is insanely interesting. Dude is prolly going straight ink most of the time too. Fucker.

Well yeah. The 0.1 issue was much better at setup. They should have dived in instead of wasting all those pages on Spider-Man.

idk what this could be, apparently Legacy might be ending soon or something and this could replace it? suppose we'll have to wait and see

I'll be sad to see Legacy go, but this lessens the blow. Good to see Spurrier getting some more work off the back of it. I hope they leave him to his own devices again. Day one.
