Poor Captain America....

1st they kill you in the comics... now you get arrested in the real world. Apparently Captain enters a bar with burrito in his pants. And the bartender say to the Capt, "I don't want to know wear you keep your salsa... maybe not. Read the story and just realize the poor Capt can't get a break.

Wii verus the world.

Part of the reason for lack of new posts this year would be to 2 things. 1st it was the new Zelda. I was not able to score a Wii at first, so I was force to play with Zelda-lite on Gamecube. After 30 hours of gameplay, I finished it. Then after many trips to my local Target, Best Buy, and Circuit City I was finally about to score a Wii. As many of you already now, Wii-ing is too much fun... better than that boring PS3. Check this video from G4's Attack of the Show for proof.

Waiting for my comics....

Last week Civil War #7 came out. Unfortunately, I have to wait to another 2 weeks before I can see the climatic conclusion for myself... or you can visit Chris's Invincible Super-Blog for his recap of the whole Civil War in 30 seconds. It is quick and funny. And best of all it save you twenty-five buck. It may be too late for me, but not you.

The Funny Is Back In The Funny Pages.

Fantastic Four #541:
I am not a Straczynski fan. I really don’t like what he has done with the Fantastic Four. I hate the way he characterizes both Richard and Susan Reed. The only reason I still get this title is for McKone’s excellent art… But I did enjoy issue the issues.

The Thing goes to France. Fed up with Civil War, Ben has left the stateside and traded this Yankee’s cap for a French beret. On the way in the airport, the US government freezes his assets. Once in France, Ben get kidnapped… what more can go wrong?

Again I really enjoy this issue, probably because it is a departure from Civil War. Plus it is pretty damn funny. I am tired of the forced drama that has been plaguing this series since Straczynski came on as writer. This issue brings back the fun that Waid and Wieringo had on their run. It is a total departure from Stracyznski’s style. RATINGS: STORY- 7/10 ART-8/10

She-Hulk #14:
More funny comics. Lately I have really been enjoying the humor superhero comics. She-Hulk has been part of my monthly comic book diet.

"Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About Awesome Andy But Were Afraid to Ask." Ever wonder how the Mad Thinker's Awesome Android BECAME Awesome Andy? It's the origin you never expected-complete with a bombastic battle against the MIGHTY THOR! And an ending that'll knock your block off!“



Again this is another great issue by Team Dan Slott and Rick Burchett. I love the mini-plot lines and how everything connects and make sense. This isn’t your Chris Claremont’s comic. In addition, The comic is funny, whic makes this comic that much better. She-Hulk #14 was a fill-in issue to bridge the Agent of Shield arc that is coming, but it doesn’t feel like one. Issue 15 should be a great jumping on point for new readers. RATINGS: STORY- 9/10 Art 7/10
