Angel: After the Fall #3

And the hits keep coming. Illyria rumbles with a dragon. Oh, and I still need to finish season 5, dammit.  Good issue, if you're an Angel fan, of course.

Booster Gold #6

Booster Gold and the (Blue) Beetles head back in time to save Ted Kord! Will they be able to, and can time handle it if they do?? I'm excited to see what happens from here with Booster Gold and Blue Beetle (Ted Kord), and also the mysterious Blue Beetle of the future. Also, Rip Hunter is a ruthless bastard at times, and I think some people forget that... until he shows up and makes you travel through time with him. That really has to be the ultimate cock-block.

Fell #9

Hurrah, the return of Fell! So what's our dear detective Richard Fell up to? It seems there's a hostage situation. So Fell goes to handle it, with his mighty one day of hostage training. The really funny thing is the way he determines the person behind the door (which is drawn as a stick figure with boots on and a gun in his hand. As always, the reality of Snowtown is rather sad, as we find out at end of this issue.

Immortal Iron Fist #12

So while the Heroes for Hire battle the hordes of Hydra, Iron Fist watches the Steel Phoenix get owned by the Prince of Orphans for insubordinance and then later finds out about the army of women training beneath the city 

of K'un L'un. Also, Fat Cobra requests wenches! Obey his command! Also, a bit of new art from Javier Pullido (Human Target) mixed in with the David Aja main art.

Messiah Complex Chapter 12: New X-Men #46

Second to last chapter! Penultimate chapter! Already, things are getting out of hand. So many spoilers, it's hard to really say alot about this issue (other than constantly glee about it all). I do wonder what will happen to Bishop once this series ends. Also, Professor X is badass, and it makes me really look forward to X-Men: Legacy, which will star him, for the most part. 

Wildstorm: Revelations #2

Second issue, much better. I like the art in this two. The team breaks into the Carrier, and steal some files from the Authority. But guess who came home too early? Yes, the Authority. Covered in green gelatin, with little nanobots that should be keeping them from being nearly so badass, but it seems they don't necessarily help. Awesome dialogue, and poor Midnighter nearly looses his junk.
