This is the week thast Blood Hunt, Marvel's vampire-themed event really kicked in to full swing. Seven storyline tie-ins were released, and to be honest... they were all pretty much lackluster. Usually in these events, the first few weeks are pretty intense. But this crop of tie-ins just really didn't hit that well. Out of all…

I just knew this week was going to be a hard one to pick a comic of the week. We got another issue of Invincible Iron Man and X-Men both tackling the end of the Orchis War. Plus throw in a new Wolverine/Deadpool team-up and new issue of Weapon X-Men and you have some interesting choices to make. But after…

This week's pull list overflows with Spider-Man and X-Men delights—right in my wheelhouse. The Marvel universe dominates, and naturally, Avengers #13 was my immediate choice. However, the culmination of the Orchis War, though promising, faltered at the finish line, leaving a sour taste with its lackluster conclusion that fizzled out like a spent firework. Yet,…

This week, we have an all-Marvel pull list... most of them being Spider-comics. Throw in the very enjoyable Black Widow/Hawkeye and Ultimate Black Panther and we have a nice, quick reading list for this week. But book 5 of Avengers: Twilight dropped, so you know it has to be book of the week! Comic Book of The Week: Avengers:…

Before Brian Michael Bendis showed me the awesomeness of his New Avengers lineup in 2004, my ride-or-die Marvel team was The X-Men. I’d been an avid reader of their comics since I rediscovered them in the mid-90s. Other team books didn’t have the outrageous plotlines and inner-team soap opera drama. And their rogues gallery was second…

This week, we got a nice crop of X-Men comics, leading with Weapon X-Men and the 2nd issue of the divisive Ultimate X-Men. I picked up the Image Comics Spawn-adjacent #1, Rat City. And a couple of Batman comics to round out the pull list. Of course, the new Invincible Iron Man comic came out so it's my pick of…

This was a good week for the pull list. Batman's "Dark Prisons" storylines have been pretty enjoyable. We got a new Deadpool #1 from Cody Ziglar. I picked up some cool indie issues (the latest issue of Killadelphia, Void Rivals, and the new witch-themed Under York). And even though the X-Men are finally taking…

This week is hella busy for me, so no real insight to what I pulled this week. Just the picks! Peace! Comic Book of The Week: Ultimate Spider-man #3 Hickman / Marco Checchetto Best of the Rest

The week was a small list. But nearly all of the issues were enjoyable. The new Black Widow/Hawkeye limited series has started with a bang.. plus it's good to see Natasha still sporting the red and black symbiote. Another great issue of Ultimate Black Panther amps up the fight against the terrorist organization known as…
