I’m glad Booster Gold is getting a new creative team, since I’ve grown sick and tired of Dan Jurgens and the repeated mantra of, “Booster, you are completely unable to change the past! It’s impossible! Now go and stop other people from changing the past, which is impossible! Except when it isn’t. Which is all the time. Except when something good would happen or I feel like it. But changing the past through time travel is impossible. You’ll understand when this series gets canceled and we have to wrap it all up. Maybe.”
Savage Axe of Ares and Iron Man: Noir are fun shit. Deadpool Team-Up is the best issue of the series yet and the last page is hilarious.

- Fun with Ares!
Hawkeye 2’s costume bugs me so damned much. Belly shirts on invulnerable teen super-girls are annoying. Exposed midriff costumes on someone pure human is just plain fucking stupid…
I have to admit, I was worried about Jamie McKelvie on a Marvel title (Siege, nonetheless!), but his Loki captures the smug, manipulative genius in the God of Mischief’s face perfectly.
I can’t remember the last time I saw someone with a bare midrift in real life. Comic-book women seem to love that shit though.
I forgot to pick up Loki. I shall rectify this error.
Notice no Flash, no interest or lack of funds?
Also agree on Booster Gold, that stuff was getting a little tedious. Definitely looking forward to Giffen/DeMatteis, solicits sound fun.
I felt like they did a good job with the time travel. They were certain events you couldn’t change and certain events you shouldn’t change.
I only flipped through it in the store, but it seems that Siege: Loki *finally* explains the motivation behind the entire storyline. It might have been nice to have that show up in the actual series…
And, Marvel, look: Heinberg isn’t coming back. Let someone else write a Young Avengers story that *matters*.
