Honestly, I wasn’t too fond of this week’s comic book releases. Also, my weekend was a drunken haze and I don’t have time to review anything else, so I’m going for what I consider this week’s best comic: Flash Rebirth #5.

Who else agrees with me that the first three issues of Flash Rebirth was a mess? Barry was whining like crazy (I seriously wonder why Hal didn’t knock some sense into Barry), speedsters were dying in an attempt to create tension, and the death of Barry’s mom was shoehorned into the storyline while it made no sense at all.

This issue finally comes along and explans why Barry’s angsting all this time, and why his mom’s dead when it was established in previous continuity that his parents were alive to see Wally take up the mantle. Yeah the Reverse Flash was responsible for every bad shit that happened in Barry’s life. Heck, he even broke Barry’s arm in 6th grade. I mean, wtf, you have the power to go back in time and you push a kid down a flight of stairs? That motherfucker. (continue reading…)

Ade here, taking a break from reformatting my PC to bring you this week’s most delayed reviews!

Amazing Spider-Man #611

See how much a comic improves once it forgets about the Clone Saga? (continue reading…)

Honestly, I didn’t find most of this week’s releases great. I got an overpriced copy of Doom Patrol #4 (courtesy of RJ) so I can get that blasted Sinestro Corps Ring. Honestly I don’t know anything much about Doom Patrol except that the X-Men ripped them off. So reading it pretty much left me saying “Guh? Duh? Muh?” I’d probably enjoy reading it if I knew anything at all about the Doom Patrol’s history.

Anyway, the reviews!

Amazing Spider-Man #601

They’re not finished with this Ben Reilly storyline yet? Dammit. (continue reading…)

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

This week’s reviews later.

So I have my comic book stash for the week ready, but I just can’t do my reviews just yet. Too lazy. So instead of making some half-assed review that’ll probably incite some nerd rage, let me just plug this event for you instead:

Yeah, Black Market EX. Personally, I’m not a toy collector (not that I don’t want to be one, but it’s an expensive hobby and I might have to let go of a girl or two from my harem because of the expenses) but I could see by now that it’s going to be pretty freaking sweet. (continue reading…)
