Justice league #50: Lead by Example
Justice league #50
The writing for Justice League #50 (Spurrier, Lopresti, Ryan) is superb, and the twists, while familiar, add layers of depth!

Symbiote Spider-Man: Alien Reality #5 (of 5): Spider-Gods and Men
Symbiote Spider-Man: Alien Reality #5
Ultimately, Symbiote Spider-Man: Alien Reality #5 (David, Land, Leisten, D’Armata) is a fun, though somewhat flawed conclusion to this miniseries. It doesn’t necessarily earn the “symbiote” part of its title, but is a pretty unobtrusively great Spidey yarn nonetheless.

Strange Adventures #4: Cheers To the Wish You Were Here, But You’re Not
Strange Adventures #4
Adroit art is, in Strange Adventures #4 (King, Shaner, Gerads), unfortunately shackled to a grinding cog of a story. Let’s hope that this is merely a workmanlike pause in the artistry, rather than the whole of the story.

Fire Power #1 & #2
There’s no doubts about it, Kirkman, Samnee, Wilson and Wooton solidified the fact that they have a new hit on their hands with the release of Fire Power #1 and #2. It’s well worth your time and money!

EMPYRE TIE-INS WEEK OF 8/5: PLANTS GONE WILD
Empyre Tie-ins
Empyre X-Men#2 and Lords of Empyre: Celestial Messiah #1 excelled in their own way. Where one fleshes out a character crucial to the event, the other takes a fun concept and drives it to the extreme in the best way possible.

The Dreaming: Waking Hours #1: Trading Places
The Dreamig: Waking Hours #1
The Dreaming: Waking Hours #1 (Wilson, Robles, Lopes) takes the baton from Simon Spurrier in a magnificent stride. Wilson’s writing feels right at home in The Dreaming and Sandman Universe. A great story with killer art, The Dreaming: Waking Hours should not be missed!

Deadpool #6: YOU’RE ALL FASCISTS!!!
Deadpool #6
Deadpool #6 (Thompson, Libranda, Sotomayor, Sabino) is a remarkably fun and entertaining issue exploring just why Wade Wilson hasn’t been involved in the X-Men relaunch, but the narrative hurdles prove to just be a little too much for the issue to be as successful as it could’ve been.
