Adventure Time #1
Everyone who knows me has heard me blather on at length about Adventure Time, so I will just say here that I’m a big fan of the show. The comic did not disappoint! Ryan North was a perfect choice to write the comic, and the art is great. Also, Aaron Renier’s back up store is really lovely (plus, it stars Tree Trunks!)
Batwoman #6
The first issue with art by Amy Reader. I was nervous about the change up since JH Williams’ art was a big part of what made the series great initially, but Reader did a wonderful job. I thought her art fit the feel of the book perfectly. Story-wise, it’s nice to be getting some answers about the Drowning Lady.
Severed #7
The conclusion to what has been a genuinely chilling horror story. Satisfying ending that gave me the heebie-jeebies.
Lobster Johnson: The Burning Hand #2
This is already even better than the last Lobster Johnson mini series. Two extremely cool new villains introduced. This book is fantastic, read it.
Runners Up: Wolverine and the X-Men #5, Conan the Barbarian #1, Thief of Thieves #1, Penguin: Pain and Prejudice #5, Powers #8, Incredible Hulk #5. It was an awesome week.
Another thing that I’ve been really enjoying this week is the beautiful new Young Romance hardcover, collecting some of Joe Simon and Jack Kirby’s best romance comics from the late ’40s – late ’50s. So, so entertaining. Just in time for Valentine’s Day!
Have a great weekend, friends!
