Kyle’s Top Picks

Best of the Past Week: The Wonderful Wizard of Oz #7 – Did you seriously think I’d pick anything else?  The Wonderful Wizard of Oz rocks in every way.  Eric Shanower, Skottie Young, and Jean-Francois Beaulieu make one hell of a team.

Rob’s Top Picks

Best of the Past Week: Ultimate Spider-Man Requiem #1- Pure Spidey goodness, distilled and refined through the mind of Brian Bendis.

Most Anticipated for this Week: So many books to choose from, but I give it over to Thor #602. This is a comic that never disappoints and there are so many interesting things afoot here.

Alex’s Top Picks

Best of the Past Week: Invincible #63 – There were several high quality comics last week, but #63 was easily one of the greatest Invincible issues of all time.  A real jaw-dropper and continuing to mark a monumental shift in the series’ tone, this was the most hard-hitting moment in Invincible since Omni-Man’s big reveal.  Thinking back to it, I still can’t believe what happened.

Most Anticipated for this Week: Detective Comics #854 – Having never really followed Detective Comics, this is a bit of a weird pick for me.  That said, I’m a huge Greg Rucka fan so I know what he can do with a noir-ish comic.  The key attraction for me here though is the indescribably awesome artwork by JH Williams.  One look at his work here, and you’ll immediately know why you have to own this entire run.

DS’s Top Picks

Best of the Past Week: X-Men Legacy #225. Charles Xavier opens up on the Acolytes. Has to be seen to believed.

Most Anticipated for this Week: New Avengers #54 – new sorceror supreme to be chosen. Can’t miss that!

Other Top Picks: JLA #34, JSA #28, Wonder Woman #33, Guardians of the Galaxy #15, The Immortal Iron Fist #27, Nova #26.
