Jeff, I am amused to note that where what we read crossed over, we had pretty much the same take.
I've been trying to read Planetary all morning (well, since about 3am), but the baby won't let me. Seriously. I start, she fusses. I start, she fusses. I may try fooling her by hiding it inside Batgirl or something.
Runaways #5 - The most FUN issue of the week. I really hope readership goes up on this title, because it is massively enjoyable.
Wasn't it fucking sweet, Jeff? I mean,
robots!
Also, Vaughan gives good fight scene. And now my comic book store is closed. I have to find a way to keep up with it.
P-C, not just
robots, but a DOOM-bot! And an Ultron!
The writing in this series seems effortless.
And that last panel was awesome. I mean, what a great way to show
THEY'RE ALL GOING TO DIE OMG.
I'm now the happy owner of an Angel: The Curse #1 issue with the puppet variant cover. The first place I tried was totally out of stock, and I picked up the last copy (Bradstreet cover) the second store had.

Not really, but I've been avoiding the Fantastic Four ads like the plague.
I think the JLU staff has been spending too much time on the Superman is a Dick web site.

Heh. OTOH, I just watched the last two eps of the season, and they were frelling amazing.

Amen. Remember when people used to joke about Superman's idealism?
I also remember having a WTF?!? moment the first time the show devoted like 15 minutes to the JLA's big orbital phallic symbolfusion cannon heating up and going off. I think the writers have Issues.
