Weekly Comics Discussion – February 15, 2006

As always, complete lists are available here.
I’ve got a week vacation coming next week, which I
plan to spend vegetating at home, so you can expect
some book and comic reviews to be coming out. (I’m
aiming for a review a day that week.)

DC Comics

  • BATMAN YEAR ONE HUNDRED #1 (OF 4) – This has an
    interesting
    concept. My problem with the future histories is that
    they tend to be
    completely rewritten by the time the characters get
    there.
  • INFINITE CRISIS #3 and 4 – These went back for
    second printings.
  • JUSTICE #4 (OF 12) – Man, those are pretty
    pictures.

Marvel Comics

  • DAREDEVIL #82 – Ed Brubaker takes over the writing
    duties, picking
    up right where Bendis left off. Also available with a
    McNiven cover
    variant.
  • ESSENTIAL MOON KNIGHT VOL 1 TP – Interesting, but
    not quite
    interesting enough.
  • NEW AVENGERS #16 – Bendis is still writing this,
    though his final
    issue of the Pulse is coming next month.
  • ULTIMATE FANTASTIC FOUR #27 – If memory serves,
    this is the start
    of a new arc.
  • ULTIMATE X-MEN VOL 13 MAGNETIC NORTH TP – This
    will get me caught
    up with this title.
