Weekly Comics Discussion – January 14, 2009

This week’s list is going up early because my Tuesday schedule is nuts. The complete list is here.

Dark Horse Comics

  • BPRD BLACK GODDESS #1 (OF 5)
  • CLEANERS #2 (OF 4)

DC Comics

  • ACTION COMICS #873 – It’s flagged on Diamond’s list as “Faces of Evil,” but it’s also the last entry in the “New Krypton” saga, and will be reviewed as such.
  • BOOSTER GOLD #16 – Faces of Evil
  • FABLES #80
  • FACES OF EVIL PROMETHEUS #1
  • FINAL CRISIS (OF 7) – This week’s highest priority review.
  • GREEN ARROW BLACK CANARY #16 – Faces of Evil
  • GREEN LANTERN CORPS #32 – Faces of Evil
  • NIGHTWING #152 – Faces of Evil, and I believe it’s the final issue of the series. (If not the last, it’s the second last.)
  • RESISTANCE #1 (OF 6)
  • TRINITY

Dynamite Entertainment

  • BATTLESTAR GALACTICA CYLON WAR #1 (OF 4)

IDW Comics

  • GHOSTBUSTERS THE OTHER SIDE #4

Image Comics

  • INVINCIBLE #58
  • WITCHBLADE #123

Marvel Comics

  • AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #583 – Guest starring Barack Obama
  • ANNIHILATION CONQUEST TP BOOK 02 – This wasn’t nearly as good as the original event.
  • DAREDEVIL PREM HC BORN AGAIN – This is one of the best comic storylines I’ve ever read, and it’s easily the best in Marvel’s continuity. If you haven’t read it, you owe it to yourself to pick it up. My original review is here.
  • DEADPOOL – Dark Reign
  • HULK VISIONARIES PETER DAVID TP VOL 06 – The introduction of the Pantheon. This was when Peter David was consistently hitting it out of the park. I haven’t seen Hulk this well written before or since.
  • NOVA ORIGIN RICHARD RIDER – This one reprints issues from the original series. The entire original series has its own Essential volume, which is the option I went with.
  • WONDERFUL WIZARD OF OZ #2 (OF 8)
  • X-INFERNUS #2 (OF 4)
