AVENGERS #25

written by Brain Michael Bendis art by Walter Simonson

Apart from one page this comic had PISH all to do with avengers vs x-men. Oh marvel.

BLUE BEETLE #8

written by Tony Bedard art by Marcio Takara

The blue beetle fights a time travel based mad scientist with a tragic back story. So blue beetle kinda sucks. Yeah that's not cool. See I feel a lot of linkin park was listened to when writing this new beetle. You know because his life is full of pain. He's still running away from home and that's no fun. No fun at all. Also its not like the plots going any ware and I could deal with that if the things that were happening were fun. Even just a wee bit fun. I'm being too harsh but this book wasny all that interesting this month.

BATMAN #8

written by Scott Snyder art by Greg Capullo

Shit gets real as the court of owls invades the bat cave. Oh my. Just. OH MY. This book just gets better and better. BETTER AND BETTER. JUST YEAH. JUST YEEEEAAAAAAAHHH. This batman might not be the bat god yet but this Desperate Dan lookalike is really growing on me. As you can see from the cover he's fighting shoeless. SHOELESS. What a bad ass. GO READ IT NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW.

SUPER GIRL #8

written by Michael Green art by Mike Johnson

So supergirl and her Irish gal pal hang about new York then get attacked by ghosts. I think. Its not very clear. Yeah it was probably just a super villain but I'm going to say it was a ghost because that's more fun. Totally digging it by the way. The book got a hell of a lot more casual really fast. Yeah. AWESOME. Basically I got what I asked for a few months back. YEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAHHHH. So supergirl can still only speak kryptonian. Damn kryptonian's coming over here taking our jobs.

AVENGERS VS X-MEN #2

written by team marvel art by JR jr

The avengers fight the x-men ! So this was surprisingly and oddly pish. It was just all fighting. Now I know that's all I ask for from a comic and I know Iv said in the past more comics could have been made better if they were all just fighting but the thing about this issue was that the fighting was just boring. Its just all static one on one one fights with narration that sounds likes its straight out of a 90s comic. Now that sounds like it should be awesome but somehow it isn't and weirdly for an event comic there's not a single splash page in the issue. Freaky likes. I know that the phoenix force is pretty tough but you'd think the heroes would jut throw Dr Doom at it. You know because HE'S BEEN BURNED BEFORE !!!

JUSTICE LEAGUE #8

written by Goff Johns art by Carlos D Anda with Ivan Reis and Joe Prado

So green arrow attempts to join the league. Hilarity ensues. I'm loving this books decent into non- super star-ness. I really don't get why they'd put in the the effort of having the proper all star justice league and then as soon as issue seven hits just throw it all away and start messing around with the line up. What's worse is that when the JL arny out saving the world there standing about being bastards. I dunno man Its just these past two issues the leagues come off as terrible people. Ahh wells maybes that's what the big goff lads going for. Billy batson's still horrible though.
