What Is The Last Comic You've Read - Part 2

[Xeno-noesis]

Empty Zone #3

An unexpected direction and a couple unexpected turns in this issue, all of which were great! The mood is phenomenal, a horror/cyberpunk/noir world that I just eat up. I find the world created by Alexander to be terrifying - not necessarily being scared, but the undercurrent and story told. If you are one to get immersed in your reading, then this title will be a treat.

Infitinite Crisis Omnibus - Various

Reading the storyline a decade later, older, (slightly) wiser and able to take it less personally, less seriously, I loved the hell out of it. Especially with all the context added by Rann-Thanagar War, Villains United and the magic based arcs, that I'd never read back then.

I'm amazed at how all these disparate stories from different writers came together into such a singularly focused story at the end. And dammit, when J'onn, Green Arrow, Black Canary, Dr. Midnight and a bunch of z-listers formed a line against a united army of every villain in the DCU, I must admit, it made me a bit emotional.

So yeah, loved it. DC are at their best when they get biblical.

It was an issue of Ultimate Spider-Man where Harry turned into the Hobgoblin and Peter had to beat the crap out of him, but didn't wanna kill him like Norman. But Harry was begging to be killed, which was kinda messed up. The the Hulk busters came in and killed him. Then he broke up with Mary Jane, it was intense as hell.

In my ongoing quest to read post Crisis Superman from start to finish, I read:

• Man of Steel mini series 1-6
• Superman v2 #001-099
• Adventures of Superman 424-522
• Action Comics 584-710
• Superman: The Man of Steel (a few issues here and there, never got the whole run)
• Superman/Doomsday: Hunter/Prey 1-3 (mini series)
• Superman: Day of Doom 1-4 (mini series)

And I'm talking since the day I started reading Superman of this era this year.

Both Metropolis and Gotham city fell to shambles in two separate events, Superman asks other heroes for help and everyone welcomes it, no citizen tries to kick it out.
Gotham falls to shambles, Superman offers to help by first helping to rebuild a power plant, which Mr. Freeze later steals for Batman to destroy it worse than it was damaged before Superman helped rebuild it.
Metropolis is the City of Lex Luthor, so the government doesn't renounce it as a different state like Gotham in Man's Land, and that city has worse freaks than Gotham any day in the week, but Gotham gets renounced for the freaks it breeds and hosts? seriously?

I can't blame Batman for being the brooding idiot kicking his friends out of the city in its time of great need, cause he wasn't the one to kick them out when they went there for help.

As interesting as No Man Land is to read, it is an idiotic arc, and that comes to the surface stronger after reading Superman's version of the story, which happened before.

Yeah, just like when I was reading Infinite Crisis. Batman creates Brother Eye and The OMAC Project not having learned a thing from what he did in Tower of Babel. He can be a real moron honestly.

Too clever for his own good.

Detective Comics Vol. 6 - Icarus

Despite the lackluster ending this was great. No major villains involved here. It's just a solid, old school detective story.

I also appreciated how Manapul and Buccelato didn't use any internal monlogues. I love when it's used sparingly but sometimes it disrupts the flow of the story and takes me out of the experience.

Highly recommended.

Avengers #345. Working my way through Operation: Galactic Storm.

 

[Spider-Aziz]

• Superman v2 #100-102
• Adventures of Superman 523-525
• Action Comics 711-712

​

I love Adventures 525, and I hate that the newest arc in Superman is strongly flipping the bird to this issue, but since I mostly don't read NU52 stuff I can say reading this issue and ignoring that one is a nice big middle finger to the current stuff with Lois Lane publicizing Superman's identity is Clark Kent.

Superman: Man of Tomorrow is harder to find than Superman: The Man of Steel is.

Really enjoying this series and am glad to be catching up.

The Amazing Spider-Man: Renew Your Vows
B+

Just read the whole mini.
Not the great thing I expected it to be, I think it's a bit overrated because it brings back a married Pete & MJ.
I enjoyed it, the art of Kubert is pleasant to look at.
Final joke is funny.
