to be honest, not that good at all. it consists of two different stories, the first seemingly based on trance and developing her character and the second is an odd zombie-like story where wolverine is sent to fight off some kind of disaster that happened in some kind of mining rig only to find one infected person, who he kills with ease. the art in the second story is pretty sick, but it does not near save the book on the other hand, crossed, venom and detective comics was just as good if not better than i expected. warren ellis is a genius. |

had to go back today after the good crapi picked up last time.
i picked up christopher hart's how to draw comic book heroes and villains, just because i used to have it as a kid and i like the art.
picked up #4,5,6,7,8 of love and rockets for a buck each, mister x 1-7 which is amazing, wolfskin #1, no hero 00 which is also amazing, and batman: the doom to come to gotham part 1 and 2...which is just an elseworld disaster.

I picked up a whole mess load of new releases Wednesday like always. All were great: (Might have some spoilers)
Avengers/Invaders 4 - Awesome story going on. Kinda lack-luster but, the ending of it I saw coming and should make issue 5 next month worth the wait. Love it
Secret Invasion Front Line 2 - I always liked the Front Line series for the big events of the year. I have them from Civil War to WWH. Its interesting to see regular people's POV. You get to see whats going on from streets.
Secret Invasion 5 - I though it was good. Finally rescued Reed. They are gonna start kicking some ASS big time next issue. Im confused though. The way Issue 4 ended, I thought for sure we would have seen some Thor and Cap?.......Poor Hawkeye...
Secret Invasion INHUMANS 1 - I got this because I love Blackbolt. They drew Medusa very nice looking too.
Secret Invasion THOR 1 - This is gonna be an awesome mini tie in. Expect this one to be probably the best tie-in. Next to Deadpool of course lol. Been awhile since I have seen Beta so it was nice.
Final Crisis - I dont follow DC much lol. I got because this was supposed to be day that "evil" won. I dunno. Its ok, maybe as time go's on it will get better but theres only 4 issues left.
Secret Invasion Black Panther 1 - Out of all the tie in books, this on probably shows the most one-sided ass kicking NOT by a Skrull. I'm intrigued as to how the wakandan's found the Skrull infiltrators. As only apparently Reed knows how. Thanks Pym.
Secret Invasion X-Men 1 - Im starting to get back into the X-men. I think its gonna be alot of fun now after reading Uncanny #500. This one is gonna be a fun read.
So yeah thats that lol. This invasion is secretly invading my wallet. Meh, I don't mind.
RIF right?
