the READ pile - 03/05/08

By
For some reason my comic shop isn't listing a shipment of Secret Invasion Saga, or New Frontier Special. So I'll add them to the read pile next week. Don't you dare spoil those for me internets.


#1 DYNAMO 5 #11- This is one of my favorite titles. It has a silver age feel and lots of action. Jay Faerber is a genius.


#2 TWELVE #3 (OF 12)- Awesome book. If you need someone to explain to you why it's great,  may i direct you here.

#3 ALL NEW ATOM #21- New writer for the series. I hope he can keep this title on track.

#4 GREEN LANTERN #28- A startling revelation about the blackest night is promised in the solicitation. 

#5 COUNTDOWN TO FINAL CRISIS 8- Jimmy and Darkseid are suppose to get into fisticuffs. I bet Mike is hyped.


#6 JONAH HEX #29- It looks like Jonah is going to fight a giant scorpion. So obviously I'm excited.


#7 COUNTDOWN TO ADVENTURE #7 (OF 8)- I forgot what happened last issue. 

#8 NEW DYNAMIX #1 (OF 5)- One of my favorite comics ever is X-Statix. This book has absolutely nothing to do with that, but they both end in X's. So maybe it'll be just as good. I know absolutely nothing about this book. Let's see what I learn.


#9 LOGAN #1 (OF 3)- I don't like the cover. The soliciatation said that there will be a shocking revalation about Loagn, I don't like that either. Brian k. Vaughn is writing it so i'll give it a shot. His mini Dr. Strange: The Oath was fantastic. So hopefully this book can deliver.


#10 DC SPECIAL RAVEN #1 (OF 5)- Marv Wolfman is writing this book so lets see if he can revitalize Raven in the DCU. DC is claiming this book is new reader friendly, so jump on it.

COMICBOOK REVIEW: Garfield's Pet Force 2014 Special

Time for a comicbook review of an unusual comic for me. Every once in a while at the comic shop, I may feel particularly random. Something odd may call to me from the shelves. This comic is one such oddity. Garfield's Pet Force 2014 Special jam-packed with two epic Garfield's Pet Force stories. What is Garfield's Pet Force? I had no idea. I'm familiar with the concept of Oddie and Garfield and watched the cartoon a few times as a kid. I wouldn't consider myself a Garfield fan in the slightest. This comic may have changed my mind on the lasagna loving cat, though. Garfield's Petforce is Garfield as a superhero named Garzooka. Garzooka leads the Pet Force which is made up of his cartoon friends who have their own superpowers and dorky names. The stories are written by Scott Nickel. The first one is called "Cat-astrophe in the Cosmos" with pencils by Gary Barker and George Lane the third, inks were done by Mark and Stephanie Heike. The story s...

-Can we officially shut the fuck up about Jake Locker now? I don't care if he was playing the Pittsburgh Steelers, 4-20 for 71 yards, a TD, and 2 INTs is unacceptable. If you take away a 45 yard TD strike to Jermaine Kearse, he was 3-19 for 26 yards and 2 INTs. He's got lots of talent and I'm sure he's a perfectly decent kid but the idea that Locker is the ultimate prospect in this year's NFL Draft is inexplicable. His Heisman campaign is obviously deader than dead at this point and I see no reason that he won't be the next Tim Couch. -Here's a random one: Kansas is down 31-10 to Southern Miss...they score a touchdown with 5:17 left in the game...and go for two?! Uh...what? Who did the math on that one? What possible scenario are they planning for? Are they planning cut the deficit to 13 instead of 14 in hopes that, in the event that they have to settle for two field goals at some point, they can still tie the game (with the addition of another touch...
