Comic Book Pull List: October 16th, 2024

Kind of a light week, so i successfully grabbed a few comics I wouldn't normally get (i.e. DC and Image stuff). This week was heavy in the Spider-corner of my Marvel stack.. including the comic of the week... Comic Book of The Week: Ultimate Spider-man #10 Hickman / Messina / Wilson After the dramatic events of the last issue, Peter faces mounting pressure to balance his personal life with the responsibilities of being Spider-Man. In this issue, Peter struggles to maintain his relationships with friends and family while battling a new, formidable threat emerging in New York. The issue features fast-paced action sequences…

Comic Book Pull List: October 9th, 2024

A nice crop of comics this week. We got the typical new X-Men and Venom War comics. And in the aftermath of "Absolute Power, I'm looking at putting a little more work into DC comics, since their "All-In" intiative suggests a jumping on point for readers. I really enjoyed Batman #153 last week so i'll put that book at the top of my list. And Superman drops this week so i'll take a closer look at that book. But of course, HOW COULD THERE BE ANY OTHER BOOK THIS WEEK HOLDING THE TOP SPOT: Comic Book of The Week: Absolute Batman…

Comic Book Pull List: October 2nd, 2024

This was a standard week for my books. Venom War keeps rolling on. Quality X-books keep dropping with great stories. And DC brings Absolute Power to a close, as well as setting the stage for a new era for DC comics, AND the launch of their 'Ultimate Comics'-like brand, 'Absolute Comics'. And with DC making these moves, there's only one book that was on top of my stack... Comic Book of The Week: Absolute Power #4 Waid / Mora   I'll be honest... I'm usually very intimidated by DC events. I'm sure the stories are good, but the amount of 'tie-ins' that drop…

Comic Book Pull List: September 25th , 2024

It's been a busy week. Not much to say about this week's like. Nore Absolute Power and Venom War. I think i'm gettin event fatique, so i turned to a stride and true book to just give me a solid story. And that turned out to be Jed Well's Spidey comic. Comic Book of The Week: The Amazing Spider-man #58 Wells / Romita Jr.   Tombstone's daughter is the lone witness in his murder trial and he's done being a father. He goes after her to kill her with Spider-man in pursuit. We get a nice brawl with Tombstone and Spider-man, with his…

Comic Book Pull List: September 18th , 2024

As usual Venom War and Absolute Power dominate my list. Giving the new Ghost Rider comic, "Spirits of Vengeane" a try since it's a number 1. And I may not have cared for Cody Ziglar's run on Spider-man: Miles Morales, but I had to grab all the back issues of his current Deadpool run because I. really digged his issue #6. But it's the Avengers week, so it's not double I'm pick it up... because Hyperion is coming! Comic Book of The Week: The Avengers #18 MacKay / Schiti We pick up where the last issue left off with Hyperion.. depressed from…

Comic Book Pull List: September 11th , 2024

A lot of Marvel comics this week. Venom War and Absolute Power are still the big events of the moment. But for my pick of the week, I had to go to the Ultimate Universe... Comic Book of The Week: Ultimate Black Panther #8 Camp / Noto To be honest, even though I love the character of The Black Panther, and I loved the movies, I've never really been able to get into the whole vibe of the comic. Even when Ta-Nehisi Coates was writing his epic run, it just didn't grab me. But there's just SOMETHING about Bryan Hill's reimagining of…

Comic Book Pull List: September 4th , 2024

This week was a nice week. 16 books is a good haul these days.. most of them I've been anticipating. So far there's been some good stuff cooking from Marvel and DC as of late. DC's Absolute Power has been a monster, along with Marvel's Venom War. As for book of the week, it was no contest... Comic Book of The Week: The Ultimates #4 Camp / Noto .... This issue, we get the tragic backstory on Ultimates member Doctor Doom, who is this universe's Reed Richards. Camp give us an interesting narrative, deconstructing Reed "Doom" Richard using time jumps three periods running in parallel.…

Comic Book Pull List: August 28th , 2024

This week was dominated by Venom and Absolute Power comics. But my pick of the week came out of nowhere, with a cross-IP book that I would've just skirted by... if it wasn't created by the Secret Wars combo of Hickman and Ribić! Of course i'm talking about... Comic Book of The Week: Aliens vs. Avengers #1 Hickman / Ribić Real talk... normally, I see these 'cross-property' comics and just skip past them. I'm a suck for comic continuity, so when i see these 'elseworlds' stories that have no influence on the main Marvel 616 timeline, I perceive them to have no…

Comic Book Pull List: August 14th , 2024

This week's pull list was filled with Spider-books, Venom War tie-ins and DC's Absolute Power event. But the book of the week came out of nowhere, as I didn't even know this book existed. We're diving back int othe Elsworld's of DC's vampire occupation of Earth...

Comic Book Pull List: July 31st , 2024

This was almost a hard week to pull my favorite from the pull list. There were new volume of X-Force, a Black Widow one-shot that leads into next weeks Venom War, and great issues of Ultimate Spider-man and Spider-Gwen. The then I saw the finale of Blood Hunt dropped and it was clear what the comic of the week would be:
