Batman #3, facts about owls, Alan Wayne wasn't so crazy, and so much dialogue and panels you might think you're reading a Kurt Busiek comic. Snyder is going for more intrigue and suspense than creepy now, and you can almost hear the musical score behind the book as you read it. I love this series.
Thunderbolts #165, Karla pulls a Back to the Future, Gunna has apparently watched Scent of a Woman, and I really enjoy that Kev Walker is being inked by Terry Pallot, it makes his work look a lot crisper.
Generation Hope #13, new writer, lots of fun, strong sense of character development for a jumping on point, everyone gets a moment in the spotlight. And the team makes fun of Boom Boom and makes Namor look like a chump.
And
X-23 #17, not that good, next issue will really be the wacky babysitting stuff, this issue only had a few pages of it, most was in the preview. This is the only other page you really need:
And then Val screws up a connection and a dragon is transported into the building, cliffhanger for next issue.

Oh, well. I still have JIM and Tbolts, OMAC, and a bunch more.
Thunderbolts was great. JIM ... Guess.
I didn't quite understand what was even going on there. That said, every comic in my pull this week was great - and for eleven of them, that's quite the surprise.
I'm going to say my MOTW is finally realizing how much the Daily Bugle pages are popping up in Marvel. I didn't realize it was a thing.
or they could not travel to the place ruled by the psychic pterodactyl vampire
WW especially had an incredible ending sequence of the issue. I love it when comics manage to pull off sequences that feel truly cinematic, and that definitely hit the spot.
I still have GLC, Red Hood, Blue Beetle, and Supergirl to read later.
I concur, and came to post a portion of it (Wonder Woman #3).
(FUNERAL ACCOMPLISHED)
C'mon man, it's the Freaking Fantastic Four. You can't tell me that if the kids want to ride a dinosaur or something, they're not going to pack up for a vacation in the Savage Land out of fear of some 2nd rate X-men villain.
Yah, it reminded me of the ending to Under the Red Hood. Despite the initial bumpy start of this title, I held out hope that the great artwork and writing would be able to redeem it in the eyes of many.
When people come in and say, "OMG. The ending of Batman changes Batman forever!", I cry a little from my cubicle at work and can only speculate on what the awesome was. Help a brother out.
*This post has been brought to you by the word "awesome".
Try Rage, for Men.
That is, indeed, awesome. I only got my personal idea book autographed by him, but that would be awesome. That dude is amazing.
I think my Moment may be reading 1001 Nights of Snowfall last Friday. I think everything else after that paled in comparison.
Please take my advice.
EVERYBODY WANTS TO SIT IN THE BIG CHAIR, MEG!
That book walks the line between being good and being another potential JT Krul travesty.
Those pages look really good, but the creepy crawly creature he's building up looks just baaad. I might have to catch up digitally on that book somewhere down the line.
It's pretty fun, the subject matter is interesting, all the stuff like plot and dialogue and so on are good, and the art is nice.
I don't see what the problem is. If they just go to the Savage Land, they still have the nuclear bomb.
Also, how do they explain how Flash and Captain Atom can talk while at hyperspeed, or is it just filed under "to nitpiccy to give a shit about."
Oh hell yes
A big boss.
Thank you for treading on my punch line there.
I would probably trust Future Foundation-era Valeria and Franklin with a nuclear bomb more than say, the US government.
and have for decades

I just wish it didn't make Frank look so young and pretty. He was fine in #5 since he was just Snake, but I like him to look gritty
He fought (and killed) the new Vulture who vomited on his face and then fell from really high up in the air
