The QUALITY AND POTENTIAL for comics that were released 11.16.2011. No CRAP this week.
QUALITY
BATMAN #3
This story line is getting better by the issue. Like the ties to the recent "Batman: Gates of Gotham." Which was also co-written by Scott Snyder. Incorporating the 13th floor superstition and making effective use of it was amazing story telling.
ULTIMATE X-MEN #3
Love the new Ultimate line and X-Men is no exception. Nick Spencer is really allowed to take the X-Men to places the regular Marvel U wouldn't dare. Really uses the canon established through classic X-Men story lines like "Days of Future's Past" and "God Loves, Man Kills."
POTENTIAL
INCREDIBLE HULK #2
Never been a huge reader of the Incredible Hulk, but Aaron's first couple of issues seem to be headed somwhere worth going. Banner is nuts.
JUSTICE LEAGUE #3
Not a very deep title and not as good as Mark Waids's "Justice League: Year One." However, each issue seems to be getting more fun. Fun and Epic! Like the JL should be. Also, like the drop of America from the JL. Never made sense that GL polices a space sector, yet on on particular planet only supports one country.
WONDER WOMAN #3
Another title getting better by the issue. Azzarello is one of the best and he continues to prove his writing talents. The only knock is the art unfortunately. It's not bad in any sense, but doesn't match the crispness and directness of the story. It's too WB. Not that Risso should always be the artist for Azzarello, but I do think his art style would match the forboding and darkness that is slowly starting to build.
Cheers and thanks for reading!
