and finally
SCOTT PILGRIM VOL. 5-
each volume of
scott pilgrim has been a breath of fresh air for me. the series follows the eponymous lead character as he battles all of his girlfriend ramona's evil ex-boyfriends in order to keep dating her. scott pilgrim is awesome: his friends are interesting and hilarious, his band has the best fake band name ever and he lives in a video game world where you can earn exp. points for getting a job, coins for beating people up, and should try to reach the save point before talking to your ex. the fifth volume it the empire strikes back of the series, fucking things up as much as possible so scott can fight for a happy ending in vol. 6. the art is drab in comparison to previous volumes, but it balances out with a shiny cover.

secret warriors- most retarded twist ever.

30 days til death- the most
i've enjoyed lapham since stray bullets, yeah, including young liars. i don't know what the fuck is going on there anymore. this series is for all you romantics out there who have ever rescued a junkie, got mad at them, then driven to another city to suck the blood of someone who resembles them to deal with it. and THEN had your vampire relatives show up.

legion of 3 worlds: another super hero resurrection, though i'm honestly glad to see him back. this book is becoming less and less about the legion and more about 2 other major d.c./geoff johns books. it does keep the feeling of a crazy silver age super team up, but with superman getting a hole blown in him and another character being frozen and the smashed to death. but thats the beauty of having three legions: you've always got a couple of spare fill-in-the-blank boys.

the mighty- read peter
tomasi. this book, about the men who run the support organization for the worlds only super hero, gives me a james robinson golden age vibe.
