Man, a giant pile o'comics this week...
Hey Marvel dudes. You know what works best for giving the full impact of a last page reveal, like say in this week's Young Allies? Not putting the guy on the cover of the comic...
So in the new Secret Six Deadshot once again shows how he's a great big softie. In a really fucked up way. But still, someone who goes out of his way to make things better for one of his "friends". Though the issue does have a subtle nod towards the current Deathstroke/Evil Titans craptastic book involving Dwarfstar and Giganta...
Jack of Fables continues to check in with various characters, including showing what happened to all the Golden Boughs escapees and Noelle the Living Mannequin. Though I'm confused as to what time line JoF is following in relation to the main book now...
iZombie has a pretty slow issue. Even with being full of monster hunters, walking corpses and angry vampire ladies...
The second half of the Astro City Special: Silver Agent has the Agent jumping thru time, lending aid at various crisis moments we see in short snapshots. Leading to him becoming part of the fundamental..heroeness I suppose..of the AC location. I especially like the glimpse of the post-apocalypse society of human barbarians riding giant guinea pigs...
Proof wraps its main run with issue 28 with a big decision by Proof and a major reveal about the Lodge's Leander. Oh and more info on what the Dover Demon is..er was. All leading into the upcoming Proof: Endangered...
King City is still so crazy awesomely crazy that it defies easy description. But it does have various mutant thugs getting taken out by weaponized kitty cats as part of a plan to rescue a sort of squid-girl from a brothel...
Aside from a brief couple pages checking in with Tyler and Ron, ps238 concentrates on the pint-size mad lads Victor Von Fogg and Zodon...
Stumptown wraps up with PI Parios finding the girl, losing the girl, getting beat up and then making a last attempt at rescuing the girl...
Its The Tick of Two Times! 1940s The Tick and his allies battle the minions of the Terror and his Evil-eers at the same time as modern The Tick and friends battle the Terror and the Evil-eers...
And finally Mouse Guard: Legends of the Guard. This issue featuring a tale of a mouse raised by foxes by Katie Cook. An art critic who thinks to be a warrior by Guy Davis. A ballad of a folk-hero stopping a flood by Nate Pride. And an adaptation of Poe's "The Raven" by Jason Shawn Alexander. Oh and the cover features the Order of Wythrasher, a group of Mouse Guard who rode birds and fought using lances...
