what I've been reading lately...!

Grant Morrision comes through in a big way on Action Comics #1!

Animal Man #1 - another one of the few great new 52 from DC! Jeff Lemire.


mediocre Batman -- but I dig the character of Damian - so I'll keep on for now.


on and on with Cap. awesome art from Chris Samnee here.


Just buying this because... ummm why? I forget.


whatever.


love the Lemire written stuff from DC. the character of Frankenstein teams up with the Creature Commandos and SHADE to form their own BPRD of the DC Universe.


was ok -- going to play "wait and see" on the Johns/Lee Justice League.

oh yeah! Man-Gull from Rian Miller -- head on over to Stockpile Comics to get your own! "Strong enough to rip a man's arms off... Smart enough to use them." ha ha!


great work from Bendis and Maleev -- but $3.99 for what doesn't even seem like enough pages -- what the fuck?


still following the Bendis Avenger teams after all this time...


Warren Ellis' first issue of Secret Avengers... best one of the entire series as far as I'm concerned... or at least the best in a long while.


haven't made my mind up on this one completely yet. I'll try another couple issues to see where it's going.


another gem of the 52! Scott Snyder writes and Yanick Paquette draws his ass off!! nice.


I usually will skip any sort of Wolverine books -- but an entire issue drawn by David Aja!! more more! better than I could say it - a portion of CBR's review of the book:

"Do you want 34 pages of stunning David Aja artwork over a solid David Lapham script with no ads for only $3.99? Are you down with Japanese WWII robots making with guns and bombs and general mayhem? Do you like a done-in-one tale that’s satisfying and standalone and easy to share with others? I’m pretty sure you all said yes, so this comic is most certainly for you."


Uncanny X-Force by Rick Remender and his rotating art all-stars -- still one of my very favorite monthly books. Can Jerome Opena draw or what?! gorgeous.

Jeff Lemire on Word Balloon.

another cool Word Balloon interview here with Jeff Lemire!

"It's a timely double feature, as Jeff Lemire talks about his DC Flashpoint mini-series, Frankenstein and the Creatures of the Unknown, which spins off into one of the new 52 DC Reboot titles, plus his coming take on Animal Man. We also talk about his continuing Vertigo saga Sweet Tooth, and wrapping up his run on Superboy. Jeff tells us about learning that his take on The Boy Of Steel was coming to a close, and the excitement of pitching the new take on The Creature Commandos. We also talk about his great new origin of Ultra: The Multi Alien, in the recent Strange Adventures anthology."

All-Star Western.

first of all, there are still two issues of Jonah Hex to come. the first with art by Jeff Lemire (above image) and the second with art by Ryan Sook!

there is an interview with Jonah Hex writers Jimmy Palmiotti and Justin Gray over at CBR and although I'm not all that keen with incorporating Hex into a western version of the DCU - I'll still give it a go.

check out the CBR interview here.

It’s Frankenstein as you’ve never seen him before, in a dark new series from acclaimed writer Jeff Lemire (SWEET TOOTH) and artist Alberto Ponticelli (UNKNOWN SOLDIER)!

Frankenstein is part of a network of strange beings who work for an even stranger government organization: The Super Human Advanced Defense Executive! But can he protect the world from threats even more horrifying than himself? And since he’s vilified for who and what he is, will he even want to take on this mission?
