His personal life becomes more complicated.  Not one of Willingham&#8217;s better efforts, though with a few amusing moments.\n<li><em>Runaways <\/em>#5-6 (Marvel):  The Runaways discover the kid they&#8217;ve been warned by a future self will become a world-conquering villain isn&#8217;t really the son of Victor Von Doom.  Whew!  He&#8217;s the &#8220;son&#8221; of Ultron.  Yikes.  Much battle ensues, complicated by the Masks Anonymous quasi-supergroup on their tails to capture and &#8220;deprogram&#8221; them.  Good, if complicated, work from Vaughan, illustrated by Alphona.  Should be getting a new trade shortly, I expect.<\/p>\n<li><em>Serenity <\/em>#1 (Dark Horse):  Yes, this does indeed read like an episode of the show.  Given that Joss is doing the scripting, that&#8217;s little wonder.  The art is reasonably similar to the characters without looking stiff.  There&#8217;s the normal blend of humor and drama, and the appearance of a particular group of baddies that were missing from the upcoming movie.  Can&#8217;t wait for #2 &#8212; nor to see the &#8220;final&#8221; cut of the movie.<\/p>\n<li><em>Shanna the She-Devil<\/em> #6 (of 7) (Marvel):  Frank Cho writing and drawing a beautiful near-naked lady in combat with endless dinosaurs.  What could possibly be better than that.  So the story is &#8220;only&#8221; a ripping adventure tale.  Who cares?  In this installment, Shanna and Doc have to get across a valley full of velociraptors in order to get the antidote back to camp.  Good, bloody fun with Shanna.  And, to be honest, a moving tale as well.  Cannot wait for the TPB.  And if I weren&#8217;t a married man, I&#8217;d be looking for a poster, too &#8230;  Good stuff.  <\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Slowing down some, obviously.
