JUSTICE LEAGUE DARK #1
September 29, 2011 8:40 am Yeah I'm hoping this won't end up like Secret Avengers (great first issue and then it just couldn't really get better/interesting).

RACHEL RISING #2
September 29, 2011 8:28 am I really liked this issue but the way it started and issue #1 left off made me feel like something was missing or off. I'm hoping this was intentional and will make sense later. This issue definitely upped the ante and further hooked me in. Gotta love Terry Moore.

FF #5
July 2, 2011 7:31 pm I thought Medusa was the inhumans head monarch after Black Bolt died in War of Kings.  What book did they bring him back in?  Or are those inhumans skrulls?  Is it skrulls again already :P

ACTION COMICS #901
May 26, 2011 11:11 pm I dropped Action after 900 and was pretty disappointed in how they forced the ending of the Lex Luthor arc into this Doomsday one.  Sometimes its better to finish the current story before jumping into the next.  IMO.

FANTASTIC FOUR #581
July 26, 2010 4:06 pm This book (for me) has been living off the good will earned from Hickman's first three issue arc and then a few of the one offs about the different cities.  I feel the art has gotten worse and the stories are starting to be a little more throw away.  After reading the annual and the prior issue, this book is totally on notice for me.

(4/5) I really wanted to drop this, but JR JR is growing on me.  I'm kinda glad they're going somewhere completely different from the past several years and most imporantly to me, ITS FUN!

Can anyone answer me why Tony doesn't know Noh Varr?  Didn't they meet several times and a long talk during an issue of Avengers Illuminati (also written by Bendis I believe)?
