New Comics Day 3/7/12

A relatively light pull week, partly from me deciding to drop Static Shock a few issues of its cancellation. This and the Blue Beetle were probably the two nuDC titles I most wanted to go well, but both ended up being more than a bit of a mess...

Which is sadly also where Avengers Academy seems to be going. Each issue since they moved to the West Coast keeps expanding the cast, this time adding in the Runaways. Which means between the original class, the new kids, the faculty, the "bad" corporate recruiter group and assorted guest stars this title is really losing its sense of focus. Still it was nice to see Molly and Klara squeeing over Tigra's kitten/Skrull baby. And Kalinara flirting with Julie Powers. Oh and Victor calling Hank grandpa...

iZombie actually seems to be working well with its currently expanded cast of immortals, shape shifters, monster hunters, government monster monster hunters, undead and everything else. Mostly by concentrating on the coming Elder God-Thing and associated apocalypse...

And finally a new Fatale. With more of the mysterious Josephine, crooked cop and terminally ill Walt Booker and married reporter Hank Raines...
