Does anyone else read 100 Bullets ? I'm almost caught up for the final issue.

There were things I liked about "Final Crisis." Lots of them, actually.
But I just read the last issue, and ...
What the hell just happened?
(OK. I'll admit, though, that I enjoyed seeing Capt. Carrot and his Amazing Zoo Crew in the last stand bit.)
Did the new Buffy come out yesterday?
Yes! And it was pretty fun, actually. A little cracktastic (and it continues the annoying plot point from last week about vampire awareness), but enjoyable. I read through it fast, but it's one I want to read again slower.
Berke Breathed's Bloom County, one of the signature comic strips of the 1980s, will be republished in its entirety by IDW Publishing.
Yay Bloom County!
This month's Buffy didn't really stand out for me. It felt more like an episode of Doctor Who. Half an episode even.
I also picked up Obama/Spider-Man. Major disappointment. It's not a whole issue, more like 4 pages. I guess I'm glad I have it. It is cool to have the image of Obama and Spidey doing the terrorist fist bump.
It felt more like an episode of Doctor Who.
Ha, that's true. Maybe that's why I liked it.
Powers series!
FX just said goodbye to one badass detective, but it's in the market for another one.
Comics author Brian Michael Bendis said at last week's New York Comic-Con that he's finished a pilot script based on his and Michael Avon Oeming's series Powers. That the project "is in active development" at the cable channel, Bendis tells MTV's Splash Page blog.
ETA: Contains a big SPOILER if you're not caught up on the comic. (Thanks Jess.)
Ooh!
I still need to catch up on that series. The trades are expensive.
