This was a long one, probably mostly because there were so many good or key comics out I wanted to discuss. We get the wrap-up of the New 52 premieres, a lot of problems with inkers and colorists, a great kid’s book (Possessions), and a remarkable new/old Graphic Novel, out just this week.
Here are the covers:
Top-rated titles this week:
- Mighty Thor #6
- New Avengers #16.1
- Batwoman #1
- Possessions Vol 1
- Rachel Rising #2
- New Teen Titans “Games”
(No New 52, ahem.)
I thought for sure you’d be reviewing The Savage Hawkman #1. Is it only Hawkwoman you like?
Err… Hawkgirl? (I don’t follow the characters.)
I’m glad you enjoyed Possessions! I had to find something after we ran out of Courtney Crumrin books for the kids, so this is at least in similar vein. I’m finding a whole bunch of old Disney comics in my storage, but I’m keeping an eye out for something a whole lot more fun for me than Captain Underpants. [sigh]
Ah, yes. Captain Underpants. I’ve always told Katherine I will buy her any book she will read, but I am glad she’s past the Captain Underpants phase.
@Avo: I don’t mind Hawkman (though I think he’s a character that works better paired up — but count that relationship as another victim of DC’s War on Marriage). But I didn’t see anything on the cover or description of the book that sounded appealing, except he’s got Extreme Pointy Armor So You Know He’s Even More Savage Than Before.
Meh.
Unless you recommend the title, I’ll be giving it a pass.
