Well hawk and dove is being cancelled and despite never reading an issue it carry's on in our harts!!!
AVENGERS #21
written by Brain Michael Bendis art by Renato Guedes
The avengers get curb stomped by Norman Osborne's team of mook psycho rangers. This issue opens with bendis continuing to shill spider woman as she try to talk her way out of fighting three hulk mooks. We get it bendis she's your favourite. We get it. We got it back in 2004. please stop. Now I do like this psycho ranger mook plot something about it seems enjoyably toy toyetic to me. There isn't really much that happens here other than the avengers getting curb stomped but its done in a nice way what with the team having split up into two man buddy cop teams and there is some funny banter to be had with that. This issue I finally got that mar vel boy is spock. I like that. The issue ends with three giant man mooks attacking and beating captain America. Which is fine. But it ends with cap knocked out and the mooks being all “ captain America is down” naw pal just naw. That's just not how cap rolls. Like last time the art continues to be gid, its a different artist but they match the tone and feel of the last few issues damn well.
BLUE BEETLE #5
written by Tony Bedard art by IG Guara
Blue beetle accidentally brutally stabs his best friend through the hart. Well Blue beetle continues to be star kid. I like that and it is totally the way to go with this run but I kinda wish it could move beyond the origin stuff at this point. See this book is sorta just good, not sucky but not anything to shout about either and I feel its the origin stuff that's holding it back. That's what I here from long term fans of the character anyway though I do get why the origins being retold as blue beetle isn't the best know character and the hole point of the new 52 is to get new readers on board. The beetles buddy is fine by the way as the beetle suit suit fixes him up with a healing bug so he's fine. Well it looks like he may be a villain for a bit as the healing bug gave him a suit of power armour of his own but he's fine considering that hole stabbed though that hart thing. And remember its not like he was stabbed IN the hart no he was stabbed THOUGH the hart and right out his back so that's like his spine gone too. But no worry's he's fine
BATMAN #5
written by Scott Snyder art by Greg Capullo
Batman is trapped in the court of owls maze. Shit gets real. Then weird. Then real again. Well its issue 5 so its about time they broke out the old mind fuck. Rights so bats is trapped in this maze for like a week and daaammm he's looking ruff. The maze is trying to mentally brake him and it looks like its sorta working. That's really shocking, batman is WILLPOWER it shouldn't be this easy to crack him even just a little. It makes me question how this batman connects to grant Morrison's canon bat god batman. See I'm pretty sure this book is set in the present but its weird that batman is this weak. See if this was a young batman I could totally understand it but if this is proper present day bats then he's sickeningly out of character and totally written as a human. Which is just wrong. Batman is not a human. He is the BAT GOD the AVATAR of WILLPOWER !!! a death trap like this should be child's play to him but maybe he's just playing the court's game and maybe this is all just an act which I'm hopeing is what's going on. Still a gid comic its just a little jarring to see batman this weak.
SUPER GIRL #5
written by Michael Green art by Mike Johnson
Supergirl travels in space trying to find krypton only to find a dark elder planet killer to fight. Yeah so as you can see from the cover supergirl fights this dark eldar looking woman. Sweet. Its not a particularly awesome or long fight but its was fun considering how dark things got last issue. We also get some plot developments as supergirl learns for sure that krypton is gone and that her dad was murdered before the planet blew. So big stuff there. So we're five issues in now I feel I should congratulate supergirl on being one of the surprise pick up's of the new 52. Seriously I'm reading a supergirl comic how did that happen ? Well the first issue was one long mech fight. Yup that's pretty much why. The awesome art probably helped too.
ULTIMATE COMICS SPIDERMAN #6
written by Brian Michael Bendis art by Chris Samnee
Miles morales continues to be spider man and this issue fights some muggers. Like a pimp. Well get a load of this, issue six out in shops IN OUR LIFETIMES. I'm speechless. Back when ultimate spiderman started waaaay back in the mists of time my ancestor reviewers could only dream of a schedule like this. MONTHLY. This issue was pretty gid too with miles stopping a mugging which is a nice spidermany thing to do and further cements him as the current real spiderman. For me what made the issue though was the art GOOD GOD the art yes. Cartoony and just plain awesome it just hit me as soon as I opened the issue. I just wasn't expecting it at all even though I herd it was going to be a B artist issue. But yeah AWESOME ART. It was also had sub plot with miles uncle who in this universe is the prowler. When I first saw the ultimate powler I mistook him for stealth deadpool. Stealth deadpool should be a thing.
