Action Comics #865 - By Geoff Johns and Jesus Merino. I'm a Superman fan. I'm a Geoff Johns fan. He's bringing back the original Toyman. Gotta' check it out.







Firebreather #1 - By Phil Hester and Andy Kuhn. I loved the previous Firebreather. I've been wanted regular Firebreather for a long time. Basically take teenage Peter Parker and make it so that he cannot hide that he is Spider-Man...AND he wasn't bitten by the spider...the spider was his father...Ok, so the analogy is screwed up...it's still great reading and art...pick it up...don't make me wait a long time for more Firebreather.




Giant-Size Astonishing X-Men #1 - By Joss Whedon and John Cassaday. The Breakworld saga concludes and an X-Men doesn't walk away. I've been a big fan of Whedon's X-Men, though I have to admit my belief that the "X-Man" that doesn't make it is Armor makes me think that the shock ending won't be much shock...but I could be wrong.


New Avengers #41 - by Brian Michael Bendis and Billy Tan. Friend versus Foe in the Savage Land because...who's a Skrull and who isn't? The Skrull doing what they do best...confusion. Bendis and Tan doing what they do best...enthralling us. And Spidey doing what he does best...looking to team-up with Ka-Zar...but is he really Ka-Zar?

Number of the Beast #4 - By Scott Beatty and Chris Sprouse. The Paladins are doing what they can while the Apocalypse is at hand, but the Apocalypse is a virtual reality program...What the...?

She-Hulk #29 - By Peter David and Val Semeiks. How the sexiest woman in comics got disbarred is revealed...

Ultimate Spider-Man #122 - By Briand Michael Bendis and Stuart Immonen. Spider-Man captured. Who did what no other villain could do?

Uncanny X-Men #498 - By Ed Brubaker and Mike Choi. Cyclops and the White Queen find themselves stuck in psychadelic San Francisco a la 1969. Can they solve this strange mystery before Angel gets strung out...permanently? And Wolverine, Nightcrawler, and Colossus do what they do best...cause trouble in Mother Russia.
