Peter Porker, the Spectacular Spider-Ham #4
Peter Porker, the Spectacular Spider-Man #4 (Wells, Robson, Arciniega) is a great big ball of fun. It’s amazing that a pig in a Spider-Man costume can be this entertaining, but it is.

Ant-Man #3
Ant Man #3 (Wells, Burnett, Spicer, Petit) is so far the run’s weakest issue narratively, but the art remains first rate. With larger threats around every corner, hopefully the next issue will be a return to form.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer #13: When Buffy Isn’t About Buffy Anymore
Buffy the Vampire Slayer #13 (Bellaire, Valero-O’Connell) continues to be distinctly out of focus and a meandering mess, leaving its lead character out of its pages for the sixth issue in a row. Instead of introducing the new post-Hellmouth status quo, it instead chooses to focus on Kendra to no appreciable gain. Fans would not be wrong for dropping this book from their pull sheet at this point.
