This Week in Panels: Week 102
September 5th, 2011 by Gavok | Tags: flashpoint, panels(Note: update is a little late due to the website having a fit last night. Need to remember to send David a fruit basket for his troubles)
Kind of an update and a half this time around. Since last week’s show was a failsafe in case I lost power from the hurricane, which ended up happening, I didn’t get to include the panels from David Brothers and Space Jawa. So here they are from last week, mixed in with this week’s batch. I also have Was Taters on the drums.
My pick of the week is the Goon and if the creative team and panel don’t convince you to check it out, I just don’t know what to say.

I’m glad to see that Invincible is finally going somewhere. It’s been all over the place since the war storyline ended, but not it seems to be coming together in a way that makes sense.
Today or tomorrow, I’ll go into more detail on my thoughts on the two DC comics of the week in a new weekly series about the company’s relaunch.
The Rinse was very good. Just an overall satisfying read.
by Dan Coyle September 5th, 2011 at 11:26 --replyThat was one hell of a ride in Xombi. I finally picked up my copies of the book this weekend (my FLCS had trouble finding #1 for me for awhile there), and I read the whole thing in one go last night.
God, I wish more comics were this good.
by Prodigal September 5th, 2011 at 11:27 --replySo nice to see Uncanny X-Force back to its position of best Marvel book(well, that and Waid’s Daredevil). Opena/White is just a godlike art team, and Remender didn’t have any boring AoA characters to deal with and bring the plot down this time around.
by Jeremy September 5th, 2011 at 19:29 --replyHeh, that line from X-Force sounds like the beginning of a bad joke.
Two mercenary assassins and a Robot from the future phone up a superhero team…
by CapoDelBandito September 6th, 2011 at 03:25 --replyA new TMNT comic? Why was I never informed of this?
