• New Warriors #5 – Great cartoony art, cast hasn’t been formally introduced, so it’s hard to follow.
• Runaways #28 - Whedon’s having fun creating cooky characters. Ryan’s art is gorgeous.
• Buffy the Vampire Slayer #7 – Vaughn channel’s Whedon very well, Faith kicks ass, and the story is not going where I thought it would.
• Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man #24 – The story moves forward (as opposed to last issue) but ends on a note that could prove to be either fantastic or horrible.
• Marvel Comics Presents #1 – Five stories running the entire gamut – funny, strange, heart-warming and one that’s just boring. Stuart Immonen’s art rocks the casbah!
• Uncanny X-Men #491 – This entire arc seemed like an awfully long winded way of getting where we are. Bring on Messiah Complex!
• Punisher War Journal #12 – A great tie-in to a not-so-great event. The series is in dire need of a new artist (luckily, one is coming in the next arc!).
• Green Lantern #24 – The best book DC currently published. The war reaches earth, and earth’s Green Lantern in a decisive battle against Parallax!
• New Avengers #35 – Bendis at his best! Despite the (very) misleading cover, a solid read, and one of the best New Avengers issues in a long time.

That’s it for this week. Hope you’re better educated now. Laters.
