Green Lantern Corps #49: It's not the best storyline that GLC has had in recent times . It includes a predominantly human group of lanterns and I honestly don't care about the alpha lanterns. There are other brands of lanterns around and it would be great if we could see the interactions between each corps.
Incorruptible #7: It's all right. nothing spectacular as it has been. The art doesn't help it's really boring, I honestly can't think of anything else to say.
Justice League: Generation Lost #4: I honestly loved this episode because of two things. First and most obvious, batman had an identity crisis moment (you know what I mean if you read it). Second, Maxwell Lord's revelation, which means it isn't so victim and tormentor as we thought. The russian stuff was fun although there's a part of me that thinks this has to do with the JLI days. I seriously need to pick those up.
Powers #5: It's felt like a while but finally it came back. A big plus is that we learn something finally about Sunrise. There's a couple of nostalgic references for long (from the start) term and some more recent references (last issue). The ending was not surprising, if you looked up powers since the first issue was promised to come out, they actually have had a preview of issue 1, 2 and 6, don't ask me why. The starting in my opinion was harsh but it's interesting as to why it happened, this seems to be a what-if that will probably never come up. They say they have two more issues in the next month, so I'm all good.
Secret Warriors #17: It's a change of pace to say the least. It's a time-out from the spy games to focus on Nick and his old friends, the howling commandos. We get to meet the other team of "caterpillars" which have the possibility of being something rather evil. Plus the inevitable howling commandos/ Cap America flashback. A fun change.
Thunderbolts #145: A great second issue in the world of thunderbolts, although I'm wary that anything after the previous thunderbolts team. Their first mission is a decent warm up. The use of swamp thing as well was great as well. I also like the new additions to the cast like who the warden is. btw Find out for yourself what happened after last weeks cliffhanger.
Wolverine Weapon x #14: This story has felt like it's been going on forever and we get to learn about the deathloks. When this book started, I kinda felt like it was supposed to be about the more brutal killing side of wolverine because he is "the best at what he does" and yet here we are, with what seems to be the plot of most of the terminator plots except salvation and he just isn't really being "the best at what he does", plus I swear Captain America changed his uniform throughout this story.
X Factor #206: (second coming tie-in): The finale of second coming revelations. It's up to its usual standard. great character interaction and plot. I love this series, especially for the fact that even though it is tied into second coming, its very much its own world and didn't sacrifice all the plot lines which went before.
X-men Legacy #237: (second coming tie-in): Now this is a great penultimate issue. The great thing about this arc is that it's a great "back against the wall" storyline, some harsh deaths, some great moments and this issue contains one of them. Cypher has always been a character who I never took seriously but he always seemed like he had potential, this is shown in this issue. The ending could be a great final face-off.
