This week’s update took me longer than it should have because my scanner was being a dick. Everyone join me in yelling at my scanner for being a dick.
Age of Heroes #1
Kurt Busiek, Marko Djurdjevic and many others
Atlas #1
Jeff Parker, Gabriel Hardman and Ramon Rosanas
Welcome to a very special Siege/Brian Michael Bendis/Luke Cage/Keith Giffen-themed This Week in Panels. For those of you new to the concept, every week, we take every new comic we’ve read since Wednesday and sum it up with one panel as a way to give you the gist without being entirely spoiler-heavy. hermanos has broken the rule against using full or two-page images as panels, but he writes the non-existent checks, so I’ll let it slide.
(joke’s on Gav, that page from BPRD: King of Fears is the top half of a page and the bottom half are a series of reaction shots. not technically a two-page splash! that’ll be two week’s non-pay for libel. -djdb)
Amazing Spider-Man #631
Zeb Wells, Emma Rios and Chris Bachalo
Astonishing X-Men: Xenogenesis #1
Warren Ellis and Kaare Andrews
Time for another go at TWiP, including a rare couple panels from Esther. Also, reader Space Jawa tossed in a panel from Thor and the Warriors Four. If you really dig a comic that you see we aren’t reading and want to toss us a scan, by all means. Email’s on the top right.
Tossed in the few Free Comic Book Day issues I’ve had time to read.
Astonishing Spider-Man and Wolverine #1
Jason Aaron and Adam Kubert
Atomic Robo Free Comic Book Day
Brian Clevinger, Scott Wegener and others
Sorry about the lateness. The last few days have been absolute madness for me. I was going to toss in the Free Comic Book Day stuff in this update, but since I haven’t had a chance to read much of it, and since next week is such a small comic week, I’ll save it for then.
Amazing Spider-Man #629
Roger Stern, Lee Weeks, Zeb Wells and Chris Bachalo
The Authority: The Lost Year #8
Grant Morrison, Keith Giffen, J.M. DeMatteis and David Williams
Just got back from CHIKARA’s King of Trios and I’m completely exhausted. I’ll do a little trip report of sorts later. For now, it’s panel time.
Amazing Spider-Man #628
Roger Stern, Lee Weeks, Mark Waid, Tom Peyer and Todd Nauck
American Vampire #2
Scott Snyder, Rafael Albuquerque, Stephen King and Rafael Albuquerque
Flying solo again this week, so I’ll toss in last week’s Street Fighter II Turbo, since my shop got it in late.
Booster Gold #31
Dan Jurgens
Brightest Day #0
Geoff Johns, Peter J. Tomasi and Fernando Pasarin
I’m not sure who Oberon Sexton really is (he’s the Joker), but I bet he reads This Week in Panels every Sunday.
The A-Team: Shotgun Wedding #3
Joe Carnahan, Tom Waltz and Stephen Mooney
Avengers: The Origin #1
Joe Casey and Phil Noto
Quick one today due to a short week. Of course, I’ve already covered Prelude to Deadpool Corps #5 in this post, but I added it in anyway. I’ve been hearing that I should be getting my ass in gear and catching up with Hickman’s Fantastic Four, so hopefully I will have done that by his next issue.
Hey, want to see something great? Pretend the second panel is the answer to the first panel.
Amazing Spider-Man #627
Roger Stern and Lee Weeks
The A-Team: War Stories: BA
Chuck Dixon, Erik Burnham and Casey Maloney
Time for another installment of TWiP, which is almost late since I was too busy watching the All-American American Jack Swagger be awesome. Oh, and Shawn Michaels is apparently retiring too. But the Jack Swagger part is more important.
Amazing Spider-Man #626
Fred Van Lente and Michael Gaydos
The A-Team: Shotgun Wedding #2
Joe Carnahan, Tom Waltz and Stephen Mooney
For those who haven’t noticed or forgot, a nasty storm caused me to lose my cable connection last week and rather than wait a day to post TWiP, I made the dumbass decision to add it onto the next week. Apparently I was too busy to notice that this week was a huge one regardless, making this a gigantic update. Welp, let’s get moving.
The A-Team: Shotgun Wedding #1
Joe Carnahan, Tom Waltz, Stephen Mooney
Amazing Spider-Man #624
Mark Waid, Tom Peyer, Paul Azaceta and Javier Rodriguez
