I must say that I love J. Michael Straczynski and Jesus Saiz' "The Brave and the Bold". So far they've made two excellent stand alone issues.

Surprisingly enough, this month's Flash/Blackhawks team up was more enjoyable than last month's Batman/Dial H for Hero.

Best book of the week. Well, maybe Chew #5 was. Although, the end of Blackest Night: Superman was really cool too.

I think I'm growing weary and disinterested in The Outsiders. Four months ago I would've laughed at myself for saying that.

I've not read anything yet,

but i bet Ex machina or The Brave & The Bold will be the comic of the week.

Wow. That looks shitacular.

Most Wolverine related things do.

Fuck you, bear, Logan just knows that life is pain, man.

It was a fantastic idea having Straczynski taking over writing duties for The Brave & The Bold. Also, great art by Jesus Saiz.

Haha, i'm enjoying Simpsons' comics by Chuck Dixon

"Just as i suspected! Zombie-robot Gustave Eiffel!"

Well played, guy from My Chemical Romance. Well played. This Umbrella Academy comic is good.

Yes. The Umbrella Academy is oficially a pretty good comic. I recomend it.

Behold! The Ministry of Science.

I've read some of the weekly comics.

All i've to say is that i'm extremely grateful to have J.H. Williams III on a monthly comic, drawing in many styles and creating complex layouts in ways that enhance the narrative of the great plots written by Greg Rucka.

Rucka is a great writer.

Have you read Gotham Central, bear?

Yes.

All of it? How many issues did it run?

I've not read all of it, i think it ran close to 40 issues.

I'd imagine it has one or two more volumes of the hardcover to come out still, then. It's a wonderful series.

I like how he goes wild and to his credit, most of his series are wrapped nicely at the end, even with all the madness.

He's also responsible for the two cheapest endings I've read in comic books: the "it was all just a crazy dream" ending to Doom Patrol and the giant reset button ending in Animal Man. I think Grant Morrison can write some great stories (he wrote the best Superman story I've ever read) but the endings to those two series are just lazy.

The ending in no way suggest the entire story was a dream.
