DS’ Top Picks
Best From The Past Week: Warlord of Mars #7 – The best issue so far in this most excellent series. It took the weekly prize hands down. You must buy this series.
Most Anticipated: Warlord of Mars: Dejah Thoris #4 – Wow. Kirby Genesis stands to be awesome, but the Colossus of Mars 5-issue arc in Dynamite’s ongoing Warlord of Mars: Dejah Thoris series (#4 out this week) is still on the top of my pull list. Dynamite is bringing the feel and authenticity of Burroughs’ Barsoom to us.
Other Picks: Executive Assistant Iris #0, Kirby Genesis #1, Alpha Flight #1, Captain America Corps #1, X-Men #13
Alex’s Top Picks
Best From The Past Week: Journey into Mystery #624 – Truly among the very best comics being put out by the big two today, Journey into Mystery, or JIM as I like to call it, is a unique comic with gorgeous visuals and an immersive and characterful narrative experience. If you are not reading this book and are at all interested in Marvel Comics, you are wrong and in need of correction.
Most Anticipated: Invincible Iron Man #505 – I seriously only have two comics to pick up on Wednesday. I think that happens around twice a year. It was either Iron Man or Avengers, so I’m going with the former. Avengers’ current talking heads approach is a fun read, but not something I’m jumping up and down to get my hands on. On the other hand, I was really digging the haunting, petrified Paris locale that Matt Fraction is conjuring up right now and am interested to see where it’s all going.
Other Picks: Avengers #14
