Comic picks for 4/7/10

I'll tell you I couldn't be more pleased with myself for keeping the ball rolling for three weeks straight. I hope you're enjoying it as well. Another small week but that’s ok, a lot of quality this week. Wait for it, wait for it..........


Red Robin #11

Writer: CHRISTOPHER YOST
Artist: MARCUS TO

Part 3 of the Batgirl/Red Robin cross over "Collision" so far, so good. In the first two parts of this arc we got to see some cool story telling jumping from Batgirl to Red Robin seeing both Stephanie and Tim’s point of view in the story. We're back to the Red Robin side so that means we're getting treated to Marcus To's ever impressive art and again I say don't get used to him on Red Robin a big name is going to scoop him up sooner rather than later especially since this book will probably be canceled relatively soon with FABIAN NICIEZA taking over.

Astounding Wolf-Man #22

Writer: ROBERT KIRKMAN
Artist: JASON HOWARD

Wolf-Man has been one of my favorite books over the passed few years very overlooked by most comic fans but I think it's every bit as good as Invincible and the Walking Dead. It is also a great expansion of the Invincible universe. Only three books left the actions is through the roof! If you haven't checked this book out I recommend you pick up the back issues or trades and catch up if you don't you're seriously missing out on one of the best non big two companies.


Buffy Season 8 # 34
Writer:BRAD MELTZER

Artist: GEORGES JEANTY

Twilight part three, some times when I'm writing recommendations I feel a bit silly because I sit here and say to my self "how do you try to make a Buffy the vampire slayer comic written by Brad Meltzer more seem appealing?" So I sit, and think, and eventually call the readers naive for making me try to sell this to them. I'm not going to do that today I'm simply going to tell you there a bunch of curse words in this book.

Superman: Secret Origin #5 of 6

Writer: Geoff Johns
Artist: Gary Frank

Instead of saying look at the Buffy description I'll put it this way, you're not going to get a superman book of this quality at writer and artist combined for a long time.




The Flash: Secret Files and Origins 2010

Writer: GEOFF JOHNS
Artist: SCOTT KOLINS, FRANCIS MANAPUL and OTHERS

Nothing big will happen here but I'm always going to back up a flash book. There should be some bart in this book and I love me some Francis Manapul too.
