The blazing comic book quickies 26/11/11


 
I'll try not to talk about buddy cops but I'm not making any promises.



THE FLASH #3
Written by Francis Manapul and Brian Buccellato art by Francis Manapul

The flash saves a plane from crashing after a electromagnetic pulse hits central city. I'm certainly enjoying this new rebotaverse flash book its delivering all the thrills and spills that you'd expect plus Barry Allen isn't being all that emo sure he's no kamina type but he's being fun and not driven like he was in flashpoint or bitching with kid flash like he was in the road to flashpoint. Heh yeah iv not read all that much flash. Right so spoilers then ? You guys cool with that yeah ? Barry Allen gets shot dead on the last page. Oh wells so much for Barry Allen then guess its time to bring on wally west cuz there's no way that Barry's death could be some kind of fake out or anything that type of thing never happens in comics theses days. Oh yeah and the art god damn bloody funking awesome.


 
AQUAMAN #3
written by Geoff Johns art by Ivan Reis

Yup the world sure dose hate aquaman all right. Hates probably a strong word, pity's probably better. Well he is aquaman after all. AQUAMAN! He cant even swim alone. The big goffs really taking the running joke of aquaman sucking big time and really hammering it home. The world of the rebotaverse is just like our very own in that it just see's the king of Atlantis as a joke and that's pretty cool mainly cuz it works. Its just feels more real that the world would treat him that way rather than treat him just like superman. Well that's what this books setting up so they can show that aquaman is bad ass that he dose kick ass and that he isn't a joke. Its not there yet but it's aiming for it. The goff man really likes aquaman stabbing dudes. Not my cup of tea really id prefer that he just punch fools like his counter part in the brave and the bold cartoon. That or just summon cthulhu. He can do that you know.


 
GREEN LANTERN NEW GUARDIANS #3
written by Tony Bedard art by Tyler Kirkham and Harvey Tolibao

So about those gaurdians of the universe being total bad guy bastards. Yeah that's still happening. Its weird dudes like they are at this moment the closest thing to a big bad in current GL continuity. They want to replace the green lanterns themselves with a third army, thieve brainwashed gathnet and are currently kicking the absolute crap out of kyle ryaner just cuz he has more than one ring, something that's totally out of his control. Crazy issue but nothing that much happens other than larfleeze making his appearance. And really I think that's all we really wanted to see.


 
TEEN TITANS #3
written by Scott Lobdell art by Brett Booth

I have to say this issues knocked me back a wee bit. Teen titans has got banter. I didn't get that before maybe the writing and art just gelled this issue or maybe it was something I'm just missing but there were genuine laughs this time and that really struck me. See before titans was teetering on the edge of the drop list but after what I just read the book has potential and hopefully the next few issues will be as good.




Oh and there was one other thing ..... but I cant ... rember.... some thing blazing and old but also new .....something amazing no....incredible ....no.....something ell's.....
