I’m expecting a lot out of House of X this week, based on the fact that the checklist has this issue in red, like the Moira issue.

I’m also looking forward to new issues of Black Hammer Age of Doom, Doctor Aphra, Excellence, Guardians of the Galaxy, Killers, Once & Future, Psi-Lords, Superman (LSH!), Vampirella, and Valkyrie: Jane Foster

  • Flash Forward #1 – After Wally West went crazy and killed a bunch of heroes in Heroes in Crisis, this is the follow up. Wally was always MY Flash, so I really didn’t like this character development. I get that it was because of the trauma he experienced, but its kind of hard to come back from where Wally ended up. Hopefully this series will just ret con it all out of here.
  • Spider-Man #1 – JJ Abrams and his son tell us a future Spider-Man story. All indications seem to be that it’s a lot like Spider-Girl. I will certainly give it a look.
  • Black Panther And The Agents Of Wakanda #1 – I have been enjoying the Avengers’ support characters quite a bit. Don’t know if they need their own series, but I am willing to give it a shot.
  • House of X #5 – Because of family illness, I am kind of cheating since I got to read this comic before commenting. I love how this issue elevates some mutants with some lame powers to show how with the right opportunity everyone can be useful. And the ending with two characters shaking hands that you would never expect to worth together was like the ultimate pro wrestling WTF moment. LOVED THIS COMIC!!
  • Lex Luthor Year Of The Villain #1 – Lex Luthor has been recruiting all of DC’s villains to join him in the cause of Doom. This special should tie a lot of things together. Year of the Villain has been a lot of fun!
