having not picked up anything last week - i still had war of the supermen waiting for me
i spent more on comice this week than i think i have since i was a teenager - or buying hulk back issued some of those get a little steep- the bonus here is most of them were satisfying - siege 4 - which you are repeatedly told to read before any of the other ties - in- ended with little surprise but was a fun read none the less- i saw sentry dying a mile away- just when i grew to like him-with loki its like well- how dead is he ? as a god not very- so big changes for thor-who of course killed - him - i don't see the thunder god being so composed during any of this is my take- it doesn't line up with nose mythology or the temperament of a god who controls thunder a wild and destructive force of nature- if i were writing thor - i would want to make him more viking less superman- come on he looks shocked to see asard go down - that he let it happen in the first place is one ting i have a problem with but - i digress- i had fun this is more of a problem with the writer not finding the proper voice for thor- i don't think he is a character most of the current stock of writers really get - this could be why he has been absent in bendis earlier incarnations- i think he works better with cap
ok dark avengers probably my fave book of the week- the art was superb - bendis really worked best in this formula-he is much more suited for character on the 2nd which - in his world he sees as first tier -he took different turn with bulls eye, and Osborne, then took moonstone and fleshed her out so she was more 3 dimensional- daken i care about more -than cage ,or the hood -
the the sentry fallen sun- one shot -decent but could have lived with out it -
ok the hulks - pak continues to do better work than loeb- he is going to be the first to tackle the green guy again- and though his hulk voice is a lil off his books pay off where loab writes foolishly- the red hulk stumbles through the hulked out heroes - still the dumbest thing ever- red shulk- who we find out is a short lived betty banner or ross - drained the red hulk of thunder bolt - now here's the questions did she drain him like red hulk drained banner are we free of red hulk now ? and i guess next issue the pull a memento and tell us how it started and why we though ross was dead- it will be a decoy now doubt - lmd is the get out of jail free card for bad writing -
paks hulk - like the idea of dooms magic being able to transcend the science minds - but making him dumb they already played that card a few issues ago-- then skaar runs red she hulk through wit her sword - so we are to believe this happens before the loeb hulk issue? the whole hulked out heroes is screwed for continuity any ways
npw c - bruce wayne returns - was good -like the superman/green lantern - cameo - the joker reference was a lil odd - sure this will be explained - there were a few missteps here nad there the end - was random and where the cthullu thing comes from much less the sword is a good question as is was batman weakened from the whole death time travel things where he was only on par with cavemen physically the called him man -god but why? the art was bland but i have seen this style employed with batman before-
war of the supermen- the art lack luster still superman ho some times looked middle aged from certain angles - need to re read these and maybe they will click have not been following it much up into this point - was not blown away i think marvel dominates dc at the moment - i could car less about green lantern or flash -books seem blah and typical
