New Avengers was great.
I also managed to get both the last issue and current issue of Thunderbolts. It's shaping up to be pretty good.

So far I've read She-Hulk, Blue Beetle, and Robin. All of which were awesome.
But my Moment of the Week probably would have been... All of Wolverine: First Class.
"If I do not successfully reboot --
Later, after Jaime's neutralized the KDRA, the scene shifts over to the holographic dummy that Jaime had been using, which was designed by one Ted Kord.
Annnnd, there's a hint towards future happenings.
Why Hector, what's that on the back of your neck?
And why is a large heavyset man holding a plush doll?

also im getting tired of that whole "let's show the same scene from a different perspective" thing
Thunderbolts was okay as usual, kind of miss the old team.
Initiative was pretty good, I was hoping Thor would make it into the story and it looks like they're setting it up. I wonder where it's going with MVP though. Not sure how the Initiative is going to survive with Ragnarok fucking up Stamford and now the whole "We hid an accidental death, oops!" thing coming to light.
Nova was pretty great too. Worldmind is a dick. I think I made a MOTW thread with that title once. Vindication.
I'm kind of where Robos was at with the New Avengers. Nothing really happened that we didn't know about, and as much as I liked the idea of the Dark Avengers fighting them, it was kind of cool to see just how much Norman plans ahead with the whole "I'm not going to beat up Captain America." Clint's reaction at the end was pretty spectacular.
That's all I've read so far. Hoping Captain America is good.
Whoops. Fixed.
Deadpool.
this week was pretty great. Thunderbolts, Green Lantern, Herc, USM, the end of New Avengers and Nova were all fantastic
Deadpool's book would suggest otherwise, he's kind of pissed at Norman right now
have you even been reading it? the next arc in both books is a crossover between the two. i think the way that Norman is gonna get around Deadpool exposing him is offer him a place on the Thunderbolts roster at the end of the arc
Haven't been reading Thunderbolts, have been reading Deadpool. I'm hoping Deadpool is better then to be a Thunderbolt for Norman.
hot damn.
Let's Play Final Fantasy 'II' (Ch10 - 5/17/10)
Dude. Really? Epting hasn't been on Cap since issue #35 (save for covers). Guess who has been drawing it since? Butch Guice. He and Epting have done co-artist duties on the book for a while, and IIRC he was originally the inker for Cap #32-24. I mean, I guess it's fair to mistake him for Epting because they are similar. even so much that I accidentally e-mailed Epting about how Tony was drawn only to have him remind me that Guice drew that issue.
The fact that the Thunderbolts/Deadpool crossover "Magnum Opus" is a conflict directly between the two, which then leads into a showdown between Deadpool and Hawkeye/Bullseye would suggest otherwise.
Epting was credited as being the artist as recently as last issue, #46.
Edit: And as a follow-up, Natasha looked WAAAAY better last issue than she did this month.

This especially makes no sense seeing the preview of next month's cover with her in the black suit... Who the hell is in charge of this shit?
bless
I haven't read it, but given that previews had already shown her as Black Mary, I assumed her "I'll never use the word again" stuff was just temporary trauma and that she'd be happy to do it once she was confident Desaad was gone (which he must be, since all the Apokalips gods are dead, now).
My bet is:
I'll likely be dropping JSA anyways, I only started due to the KC Superman intro, and that's finished now.
There are complete spoilers (including a tie-in with a certain related series) up on scans_daily.
Short answer:
Not a big Micronauts fan then? :P
It's Guice, pronounced something like Guy-ce, not Juice. Does that make it any less cool? :P
