THE READ PILE - 6/11/08 in REVIEW

By
Sorry I wasn't around last week but I was working like mad. Also, Venture Bros is amazing. Long, live the venchman. Since their was no read pile last week I'm going to give you reviews. Anything I don't have much to say on will get either a GO SPPEED GO!! (which is a recommendation) or a NO SPEED NO!!(which is an anti-recommendation) 

GREEN ARROW BLACK CANARY #9 Go!



ACTION COMICS #866 Go! Pick this up its starting off a cool arch and Johns is fantastic. The art by Gary Frank is beautiful and perfect.



HUNTRESS YEAR ONE #3 (OF 6) Go!

 
SALVATION RUN #7 (OF 7) This series got progressively worse.



GREEN LANTERN CORPS #25 Go!


TITANS #3 Go! I love this cover it reminds me of Star Wars and I like how winick is playing with the characters it's interesting watching them juggle.


TRINITY #2 Go! This series is starting off strong. 


BOOSTER GOLD #10  Go!



IRON MAN LEGACY OF DOOM #3 (OF 4) No! The totally out of character writing of Doom is frustrating. Writers nowadays right Doom like he's a pleb or pedestrian and not the monarch, aristocrat that he is. 

LAST DEFENDERS #4 (OF 6) No! 




SECRET INVASION WHO DO YOU TRUST Go! This is what regualr Secret Invasion should be. Pick this book up the Wonderman Beast story is worth the cover price alone.

 

SKAAR SON OF HULK #1 No! This didn't blow me awys but there is potential. 



TWELVE #6 (OF 12) Go! The Phantom Reporter is back!!



TINY TITANS #5 No! I enjoy it but I don't know if this book is worth what I spend 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...

Week 4

-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...
