The Spotlight...
- FEB090220 BATMAN THE BRAVE AND THE BOLD #4 $2.50
Here on the Infinite Wars we often like to blow hot air about which characters need fixing, and how one might go about doing that. Hey, let's face it, most of us have had a run at Aquaman, even if solutions were drowned out in a sea of laughs. Fortunately for us, it seems the deliciously referencial Brave and the Bold animated series has been able to actually put a solution into action! Sure, it's not your father's Aquaman, but in the retro-inspired 'toon, Aquaman is a confident and slightly dimwitted powerman always ready for a proclamation and a fight. This time around he and Batman have been stranded in time by Rip Hunter! At $2.50, I think it's about time we all started thinking about buying this comic!
- FEB092533 DAREDEVIL #118 $2.99
Return of the King continues as Daredevil and Kingpin officially enter into a reluctant truce to take down the meddlesome forces of Lady Bullseye and the ninja clan, The Hand! The countdown toward the reverted five hundredth issue continues with what's sure to be an action packed issue, one of the last under the watchful eye of writer, Ed Brubaker, who has really hit his stride on the way out! With a major shocker promised in the hand over to Andy Diggle, you'd have to be criminally insane to pass this series up!
- DEC080107 DETECTIVE COMICS #853 (NOTE PRICE) $3.99
The long awaited second part to Neil Gaiman and Andy Kubert's bizarre Bat-eulogy, Whatever Happened to the Caped Crusader?, wraps up! Batman watches on as his greatest friends and foes remember a multitude of adventures that never were, but who is the mysterious presence that stands beside him, and will this have any baring on the future of the original Dark Knight Detective? Honestly, I'm not sure, but if it's answers you're looking for, then you might want to save your $3.99 for the final issue of Battle for the Cowl, or the first of one of the new launch books. For the cost of admission, this isn't the spectacle you might otherwise be led to believe it is.
- FEB092511 INCREDIBLE HERCULES #128 DKR $2.99
It's been a while since I've been compelled to spotlight the once sublime exploits of Incredible Hercules, but fortunately for me, Dark Reign has served up a pretty good reason! Hercules and his God Squad will get a run for their money when they come face-to-face with Iron Patriot and the Dark Avengers! It promises to be a clash of the heavyweights as Herc' faces off against not just his brother, Ares, but also Sentry, Daken, Venom, and Moonstone!
- FEB092493 NEW AVENGERS #52 DKR $3.99
In true Brian Bendis style, New Avengers delivers the fight you might've hoped to have seen last issue -- The Hood versus Dr. Strange! That's right, the Doc has lost his title as Sorcerer Supreme, and now it's an all-out magic royale as The Hood vies for the opportunity to succeed him in the prestigious role before anyone else can! With the Young Avenger, Wiccan, forced to watch in awe, we already know Dr. Strange comes out of this a little worse for wear, but when the magic dust settles, will the Secret Avengers be able to help their resident magicman battle the overwhelming odds?!
- FEB094477 STREET FIGHTER IV #2 (OF 4) TSNAG CVR A $3.95
If we're going to be critical of rising prices in comics, then Street Fighter really can't get a free ride. Much as I love seeing these vivid icons brought to life in story, there simply isn't any tangible justification for the high price. As an independent art studio turned publisher, UDON probably shares similar costs as Image or Dark Horse, but for the quality of the material, I'm very reluctant to endorse these stories. That said, SFIV, which ties in to the backstory of the game, actually shows noted signs of improvement. I still feel Ken Siu-Chong isn't the man to be writing all of these stories, but at this point, it's all we're going to get.
- FEB092590 WOLVERINE FIRST CLASS #14 $2.99
With the movie only a couple of weeks away, it's not at all surprising to see Marvel positively shovelling crap out with Wolverine's face on it. The "art appreciation" alternate covers that have splashed all over major Marvel series are almost enough to get me to skip the whole lot, but sickened though I might be by the glut, it's nice to see something positive come out of it all. What is that something positive, you ask? How about Kitty Pryde, Daredevil, Elektra, and a battle with The Hand? Nice!
