1. Asgardians of the Galaxy #5 (Marvel) ★★★★★
Writer: Cullen Bunn / Art: Matteo Lolli with Luca Maresca & Stephanie Hans / Colors: Federico Blee with Stephanie Hans
Solid wrap up to our initial AotG story. Next up: War of the Realms. The art in this issue was aces. Simply wonderful.
2. The Batman Who Laughs #2 (DC) ★★★★
Writer: Scott Snyder / Art: Jock / Colors: David Baron
Riveting read. Grisly at times. Hard to put down.
3. Invaders #1 (Marvel) ★★★
Writer: Chip Zdarsky / Art: Carlos Magno with Butch Guice / Colors: Alex Guimaraes
Intriguing storyline. Art’s a bit dodgy, but I like the way it moves back and forth between time periods. There’s a nice little mystery building too.
4. Man Without Fear #3 (Marvel) ★★★
Writer: Jed MacKay / Art: Iban Coello / Colors: Andres Mossa
Nice use of Defenders flashback story and the present day struggle. The Artist musical chairs continues, unfortunately. Curious how this story gets resolved.
