    Christ, 27 issues in 10 years. I mean, don't get me wrong, Planetary is magical in every way and I absolutely love it, but...fucking 27 issues in 10 years.
    To be fair, it was 26 issues in like 7 years. Which still isn't exactly great, but is somewhat less horrible.

    I enjoyed the issue of JLA in which Vixen and Red Arrow were trapped. I think the reason I liked it was because of how starkly different it was from the rest of the craptastic issues surrounding it.

    However, it still gets negative points because I don't give a flying fuck about Vixen. She's boring. And Roy isn't very interesting either, since he is the same exact character as Green Arrow.

    Kinda surprised this hasn't been mentioned yet(unless I missed it) but DC had the top two best sellers in April with Gaiman's Detective Comics issue and Johns Flash: Rebirth. Even better is Wolverine: Weapon X being the 3rd best seller, and I say that not because of the title character but FINALLY Jason Aaron has a high selling title to his name. Let's hope subsequent issues don't drop off too much.

    Holy shit, a Dark Reign tie-in starring MODOK?

    Why had I not heard of this before?

    I should really buy a subscription to Marvel's Digital service. I hate the clunky flash reader, but it seems like the place to go to read about the best of the B-list. And I love me some B-list.

    Or you can just wait a while and read the material in anthologies like Astonishing Tales.

    I love how no one sees Frank coming in guns ablazing except for The Spot whose immediate reaction is to get the fuck out.

    Oh, I do. I've been singing the praises of the digital reprint material like Astonishing Tales and the Assistant-Sized Spectacular for a while.

    But really, I kind of want to throw my support behind the digital initiative, just to support stuff like the new Spider-Girl.

    Hmm... the other Stilt Man funeral had a Doombot.

    Just saying. It's not a funeral without a Doombot.
