The Latest and (Mostly) Greatest #19
Oh man, I’m getting way more efficient with this whole thing; look at how early these are done! My Top 5 (The 5 Best Comics of the Week) Batman Inc #4 Writer: Grant Morrison Artist: Chris Burnham You ever get tired of me worshiping this title? Well get over it. I’m not a huge fan of Paquette, the artist for the first three issues, but I love me some Chris Burnham. Take Frank Quitely. Mix him with Geof Darrow, and you get yourself some Burnham.

It Came From the Back Room #3
Standard recap: I’m slowly going through AABC’s one-million-plus back-issue room, restocking the boxes on the sales floor and pulling stuff to sell as discount/overstock/special items. At my speed (especially with the school year now starting up again), this amounts to a two-year project, and I’m currently on the letter “N.” Here are some of the titles I’ve been encountering: New Mutants This is Volume #1, the one that went 100 issues, and which counts as the first Uncanny X-Men spin-off title. Claremont and artist Bob McLeod created the younger mutants of the title and published their first adventure as Marvel … Continue reading
