Quick Hit Comic Reads for this week.
I picked up some good stuff this week. Some stuff was ehhh, but in the majority some good reads.
Drift #1: I don’t know much about Drift, so I found this story confusing, short and not really worth my time. I love most of IDW’s transformers books, but this one really underwhelmed me.
Ultimate Comics Avengers 3 #s 1 & 2: A lot of people seem not too thrilled with the recent Ultimate Avengers stuff, but I’m a big fan. great start to this series. The idea of superpowered vampires works better here to me than it does in X-Men. It will be interesting to see how this all turns out. i actually really like Dillon’s art here, it’s an interesting take on the genre, artwise.
Wolverine #1: This was a nice read. Jason Aaron is fast becoming one of my favorite writers. I still cant get into scalped, but he is the voice of Wolverine right now. I haven’t seen a writer get Logan this right in a long time. the premise of this arc is interesting and looks to be action packed.
Batman and Robin #14: Love the dynamics of this book, but I doubt I’ll read it after Morrison leaves.
Taskmaster #1: This book was ok. For a first issue to a mini I may have expected too much. I’ll stick around for issue 2 but not sure how much longer after that.
Thor: For Asgard #1: Not sure when this came out, but my god is this book gorgeous. Definitely enjoyed this book the most out of everything i picked up. I love the bedroom scene with Sif and Thor. It was as real as a scene involving two gods in a bedroom could be. This book looks like it will be great. i love the art, and the dialogue and themes behind the mini are very interesting.
