- DEC070204 ALL STAR BATMAN AND ROBINTHE BOY WONDER #9 $2.99
If you're a regular to the Infinite Wars, you know the pace has slowed quite a bit lately, which is a shame, because we've almost been smack-on topical! I've been thinking about bringing some Wildcat to the table [currently starring in JSA: Classified], and pictured right; a spoiler for an upcoming feature, [following up on League of their Own], starring Hal Jordan!
Jordan, who has all kinds of buzz around him post-Sinestro Corps War, is getting the All-Star treatment once more in the eagerly anticipated ASB&RBW #9! Solicitations infer that Batman and Robin have turned into cowards, but I think references to yellow bellies might just be a clue...!
Given that Miller has, thus far, been writing All-Star Batman as a post-traumatized Vietnam Scout Leader, the prospect of Rabies Batman rolling in monkey faeces in order to trump Silver Age Green Lantern's powers? Mmm, promising! (And if all else fails, throw Robin cape-first. FLY LITTLE WOODEN BOY!!!)
- DEC072177 CAPTAIN AMERICA #35 $2.99
[Ed] Brubaker continues his tour de forced on Captain America, with the story we thought would never happen! If I can loiter in the nineties, there's shades of Maximum Carnage as Captain Bucky launches into his first mission to save the American people from: themselves!
Riots have broken out in America, sending the citizens into a deranged rush, and Shriek is nowhere to be seen! It might just be one of the biggest comics to come from Marvel comics all year, complete with mainstream media coverage, and yet, for some insane reason, I can't stop referring to a nineties cross-media crossover! Iron Fist probably won't be struggling to resist the insanity wave, but Bucky was pretty feral for a while there, so who knows what could happen...
- DEC070186 COUNTDOWN TO FINAL CRISIS 9 $2.99
Countdown [to Final Crisis] has officially hit single digits, and the Challengers are on their way back to the correct Earth! Like I said last week, I really hope this team can continue to have adventures beyond the weekly series! As individuals the team is comprised of characters I'm rarely interested in, but somehow as a unit they work! I just hope (without having any idea why he isn't flying on the cover) Red Robin can stick with the team!
- DEC072235 KICK ASS #1 (MR) $2.99Without being steeped in any topical reference, 2008 on the Infintie Wars has been all about Mark Millar! The beauty of being three years behind the ball is that inevitably fashions come back around, and you can pretend you're actually a super-groovy retro fop who's way too cool for all the squares milling around the swivel stands... Or not.
Kick Ass as a solicitation pretty much personifies Millar's work at it's best. A cover image of someone getting their jaw broken as they're punched through a wall, and the promise of 'ultra realistic super heroes' that, if missed, will colour you stupid for the rest of your days.
Hey, and if you're a fan of the current Infinite Wars Shop featured item (Enemy of the State), you'll be pleased to know Johnny John-John Junior is back on board with the Mill-man.
- DEC072193 MARVEL ADVENTURES FANTASTIC FOUR #33 $2.99
It's starting to look like there'll be a Marvel Adventures spotlight every week.
Okay, so I haven't actually been in a position to experience these books first-hand, but until I do and suffer a kidney shot of terrible -- I'm telling you to buy!!!
With the MA: Hulk title boasting a whole range of heavy hitting guest stars, this issue of MA: FF featrues Thing's account of a battle with the rampaging Rhino! This is classic comics for the modern age, ready to be enjoyed by man and child alike! If I get this, maybe I can finally make up for the poor represntation of "battling bricks" in the Infinite Wars! PEACE OUT!
