So I didn't see a thread up and I just picked up my comics on lunch and had to talk about them 
So U:SM was pretty good. I loved Peter calling Osborn all the different kinds of "crazy" but my MotW has to go to Thor:

or the ending to Brave and The Bold
if I could tell what the fuck was going on, I'd say the ending to Batman, but I'm going to go re read some issues first

So explain it then
Rock Band DLC | GW:OttW - arrcd | WLD - Thortar
I have no fucking clue what happened. Tony Daniel draws a creepy Bat-Mite
Yeah, that was him.

I'm talking about the rest of the issue
new MoTW is the back up in Atom Eve
i don't understand the issue at all
guess i'll have to reread the whole storyline when it's done because god dammit grant morrison
the long ass break in between issues didn't help much either.

Yeah, I don't know if it qualifies as a moment of the week, but I like that they took the time to include so many different GLC/SC members and used (mostly) new artwork throughout. It's the kind of book I used to obsess over when I was first getting into comics.
Yeah, this was a good issue. Especially after reading Ultimate Power and finding out what's up with Fury/Danvers.
I'm actually pretty annoyed with that. There was nothing technically wrong with it, but
This simply is incredibly anti-climactic if we're to take it as the end of the Goblin/Harry/Norman saga. The characters have had some much time and effort put into them, and are so fantastic and intrinsic to Spider-man, that I really can't believe this one issue is enough of an ending.
So we have to assume that this isn't the last we've seen of these characters, so this is just one of those faux deaths while we wait a year or two for the goblin healing factor or whatever hand waving crap they use.
that would be awesome but Brubaker is on almost as many books as Bendis is at this point I think.
Captain America, Daredevil, Immortal Iron Fist, Criminal, Uncanny X-Men and whatever he's doing and comes out of Messiah CompleX (The Feb. solicit for Uncanny sounds swell: a Scott and Emma story. Yay!)
His Iron Man work in Captain America right now is more than adequate for me (one gripe I had aside).
I loved the Iron Man Annual, though, and I've read good things about the current run. So I like to think that his own book doesn't need Brubaker yet.
Besides, if it means scaling back on Criminal, Cap or Iron Fist, I will hunt down whoever's responsible and flay them alive.
I didn't mind the first arc the new team did, but the art took a sharp turn down hill when it transitioned to Director of SHIELD

Yea... that confused me too. The whole scene in the Batcave right? Still don't really know whats going on with that one.
Also Nick Fury was a total dick and completley out of character.
I've really enjoyed the Director of Shield stuff. The annual was really good but the general story has been enjoyable as well. The thing I like about it is nobody is all up in Starks face yelling at him. Also he isn't acting like a couple dick all the time.
Basically:
Alex Ross lives in a special time-bubble of his own invention. He lives in a perpetual 1976 and he likes it that way. He likes it that way so much that he thinks you should like it that way too. And he'll keep skull fucking you with his stupid bullshit until you agree with him.
