Batman #612 (Facsimile Edition): Hush is an absolute banger storyline, I'm so excited for H2sh (stupid styling btw). I love looking through the ads in these comics and I think next week I'm gonna start scanning my favorite old ad in the facsimiles (or next time I get an old comic)

Marvel & Disney: What If...? Mickey & Friends Became The Avengers #1: I'm really loving all these Disney x Marvel mashups. It's a fun way to re-tell all these classic stories with cute, familiar, characters. I hope we get a Spider-Man soon!

Doctor Strange of Asgard #1: I wasn't expecting much but had a really great time with this one! I loved seeing the regular people of Asgard, we don't get to see that often. Seeing what they think of Thor and magicians in general was really interesting. That twist was craaaazy and I am thrilled to see more!

Uncanny X-Men #11: PART ONE OF X-MANHUNT!!!! I missed the entire Krakoan era so I really feel like I'm missing some backstory, but its fine! I feel like they do a really good job keeping us up to date! Seeing Xavier walk will never do well with me lol, but oh well.

NYX #8: PART TWO OF X-MANHUNT!!!!! Can't go wrong with Ms. Marvel fucking up Mojo! I lowkey kinda hope Xavier dies bro, he's a total asshole.

Storm #6: PART THREE OF X-MANHUNT!!!!!!!! Storm is so fucking goated dude, she's so fucking strong and she's just getting stronger and I love this run so much, it is instantly an all-timer Storm run and X-Men run.

Scarlet Witch #10: Finale!!!!!!! I loved this ending sm, I love Wanda and Darcy and Amaranth and I cannot wait for Vision & Scarlet Witch later this year. Orlando is completely fucking this run up (positive), but WHY do we need a FOURTH #1 this year run???? I hope to see a lot more Amaranth in the future!!!

Secret Six #1: I was on the fence of if I wanted to pick this one up or read it digitally but I decided to pick up after seeing it was Shelley's pick at Dr. No's (my lcs). I'm really glad I did! Dreamer is always an absolute joy to see (trans pride!) and Jon was an absolute delight :) I can't wait for more.

Spider-Gwen: The Ghost-Spider #11: King Loki is a fucking menace man, and the powers being from the Cosmic Cube is so cool and interesting! I can't wait for next month! The cover looks so fucking sick and the art is just getting better and better.

The Ultimates #10: CRAZY ASS FIRST APPEARANCES!!!! John Walker, Namor, Red Skull, BUCKY FUCKING BARNES!!!!! HOLY SHIT I cannot fucking wait for next month! I'm loving these small but MASSIVE changes! I WANT MORE I WANT MORE I WANT MORE I WANT MORE!!!!!!!!!

Wolverine #7: Fine issue. I hope we get to see more of Adamantine and maybe it becomes a more permanent addition to the Wolverine mythos.

Lesbi-Honest by Maggie May: Last Saturday I went to an open-air market nearby celebrating nerdy and geeky things. While there, there was the most amazing artist and illustrator Maggie May! This comic tells the story of them coming to terms with their lesbianism and the different stages a lesbian goes through (from baby gay to adult dyke). As a 25-year-old baby gay, I often feel like I missed my chance to come into my own, but this makes me feel like

Garfield is Real and He's My Best Friend by Maggie Allwein: Another beautiful comic by Maggie May. I love Garfield and I agree that he is very real and my best friend. BUY THEIR COMICS AND CHECK OUT THEIR WEBSITE HERE!!!!!!

Absolute Wonder Woman #5: Amazing conclusion to the first arc. Her becoming Medusa was CRAZY!!!!! I am on edge waiting for the next issue. It's so sad what happened to the Wonder Woman video game this week. I was so excited for it, and now it'll never happen. That on top of no announcements on anything Wonder Woman yesterday makes it a really hard time to be a Wonder Woman fan. Absolute is probably our best chance at some decent Wonder Woman nowadays. I really hope Gunn wakes up and realizes the fans want more of her. No much use in having a "trinity" if only 2 of them actually get any publicity.

The Amazing Spider-Man #68.DEATHS: I started reading the 8 Deaths of Spider-Man since the whole arc ends during the One World Under Doom event, and I want to be ready for his new #1 in April. Good shit! I love seeing the X-Men show up in anything. With that being said, where the fuck was Spidey? this is a Spider-Man comic and he's no where here? If I wanted the X-Men, I'd go read that (which I do).

Fantastic Four #29: Ben Grimm is so hope-core I love it so much. I didn't read Blood Hunt so I'm missing some kind of context but it was obvious that they're equating Doom to Hitler using Jewish people as a scapegoat after WWI and how that breeds more hate and lead into WWII and of course the holocaust. North certainly wasn't subtle but who needs subtlety when dealing with nazis?

Red Hulk #1: Not at all what I was expecting and was very pleasantly surprised! So much fun!!! I can't wait for the next issue for this to get more fleshed out and to see what happens in here!

Ultimate Spider-Man #14:O.M.G. WHAT DO YOU MEAN HARRY DIED!?!?!? THAT IS CRAZY! I have so many questions and I am gnawing at the bit for the next issue. GIVE ME MORE NOW!!!!!!!!!! Amazing wishes she could attain this level of hype

Ultimate X-Men #12: Great ending to year 1. I'm so curious about the fates of the X-Men we know. I know that Ultimate Wolverine is going to cover some of them, but how does Natsu have laser eyes? This whole series is just so mysterious and at first it was fun, but it's starting to get a little old. I hope we get some answers soon.

X-Men #12: Wow. It's crazy how little I give a shit about Alpha Flight. They're low-key boring as hell, but the fights were great!!! I loved the page with Magik portaling around and saving everyone. Top tier Illyana representation.

Sorry for the late post, I was super busy this week with health issues and getting caught up on The Oscars. Next week will be much faster! We got more One World Under Doom and X-Manhunt starts! Awesome stuff.

Wow. Massive fucking week. Start of a new crossover event for Marvel along with my regular X-Men and Ultimates. I guess let's start from the top.

Aliens VS. Avengers: A banger chapter in this story. I haven't seen all of the Alien movies so I feel like I'm missing a lot of lore (specifically from Prometheus). I'm loving seeing Miles having grown into the only Spider-Man and I'm very excited to see how the symbiote interacts with the Xenomorph.

Batman #611 (Facsimile Edition): Just like the last Batman Facsimile, I'd already read this so I mostly just skimmed it admiring the art and adoring the 2000's ads.

Exceptional X-Men #6: I still am absolutely loving Kitty in this story. Thao and Bronze are also some banger standouts here. I particularly loved the discussion of sending your DNA to corporations for them to do whatever they want with. I've been against that shit since the beginning, so it's good to see a company like Marvel talking about it.

Laura Kinney: Wolverine #3: If I was reading comics in the 90's, I for sure would have loved Wolverine because I am LOVING Laura Kinney: Wolverine right now. Everything she does is so fucking cool and Elektra was just as awesome here. As for that last page... I am so fucking excited for the next few issues.

Mystique #5: Decent ending to a middle-of-the-road story. I honestly don't have much to say about this other than as a trans person, Mystique has always appealed to me and I've always loved her character. The story was a strong fine, I'm not too into stuff thats too heavy on military (I dropped X-Force after 3 issues). If you like that kind of action, or you love Mystique or Nick Fury, then this is a great read for you. The art was phenomenal and the writing was great.

NYX #8: Laura Kinney is slowly becoming one of my favorite characters, along with Sophie Cuckoo. I missed the entire Krakoan era so a lot of this stuff is going over my head but I'll be damned if im not sat and seated every time Laura is in a panel.

Storm #5: Continuing to prove to be one of, if not THE, best written run in the From The Ashes... Era. Ayodele is a goddamn poet and a wordsmith like no other. I'm enthralled on every page. Werneck is going to lose a fucking hand with how well he's drawing this stuff. I cannot recommend this run enough right now, and it will go down in history as one of Storm's best runs.

Thunderbolts Doomstrike #1: Bucky!!! I love him so much and I'm so glad I'm reading a comic with him in it. He's so fun to read, I can't wait for more!!!

Ultimate Black Panther #13: Banger start to year two! This story is really picking up and I'm so glad I've stuck with it. I'm ecstatic to learn about this mysterious Inan character and what's happened to the Sorcerer Supreme we all know. I'm also thrilled to see Storm come into her own.

Ultimate Wolverine #2: I LOVE seeing Illyana like this! It's a whole new side of her that I feel like we've never seen before. The brutality of 6160s Logan is insane. I know he's strong but good Lord, he is destroying people here.

Uncanny X-Men #10: I gotta be real... Deathdream just isn't doing it for me. I think he's definitely the weakest of the new bunch (in terms of writing), so I hope he gets a good arc or something soon. As for the rest, it was awesome finally seeing Jitter do some cool shit with her powers! I was starting to forget exactly what she does. Calico slays as always and I can't wait for more Becca Constance Simon-Pinette (of the Loudoun County Simon-Pinettes)

Weapon X-Men #1: I DON'T CARE ABOUT DEADPOOL!!!!!! I DON'T FIND HIM FUNNY AND HE'S ACTUALLY QUITE ANNOYING!!!! However, the twist ending did make me excited for the next issue. Also OMG that cameo appearance! What!!! I actually haven't heard a word from him since his first appearance! That's so exciting! I hope they do him justice.

X-Factor #7: I personally am loving this story. I think it's well written, it's funny, and somehow passionate. You can tell the writer very strongly cares about how we consume news and disasters. How every event they do is posted on "ClickClock" (their fictional version of TikTok), even if they're actively being maimed or even dying. I am a certified X-Factor fan and for as long as Granny Smite dies every issue, I'll be reading day one!

The Sentry: I read this in preparation for Thunderbolts* later this year. I'd never really heard of Sentry before the trailers started dropping other then him being mentioned in passing when discussing the "strongest characters in Marvel." I had no idea what to expect going into this and my mind was absolutely blown here. I have no idea how they're going to pull this off in the movie, but I really fucking hope they do it right.

Kraven's Last Hunt: After finishing Spider-Man 2, I needed to read this. It was so well written, the art was gorgeous, just pure 90's Spider-Man. I had no idea the story consisted of Kraven putting Peter into a fucking coma and killing people as Spider-Man. Shit was fucking crazy man. AND THEN IT ENDS WITH KRAVEN KILLING HIMSELF!?!?!?!? HUH!??!?!?! I genuinely did not see that coming. I knew he dies (hence the name), but that came out of no where. I'm really curious how they ever bring him back after this story lol. Probably some comic book bullshit.
