Pet Avengers #4 gets serious:
The girl is actually sleeping and it's a dream world where kids have their imaginationland, but the little girl is actually growing up and lashing out at her childhood friends. It's actually very very well written and touching.
And while it was a good ending to a good mini, the special coming out next month should be epic:
Puppy Lockjaw!!!!!!

Motw was the fun clone nonsense of x factor forever with delicious overwrought dialogue.
Later..
I don't know what's more sad. That first panel of Darkwing, or the fact that Launchpad's still spending his days polishing up the Duckplane, a year after his partner retired.

Hah! Fuck you, Doug.
Later, there's also a pretty good metahumor gag where Deadpool turns the Absorbing Man into toilet paper.
Despite kind of slagging on Sean McKeever in the bitching thread, I did like this page from Age of Heroes.
Aside from being a nice sentiment, and a good character moment, the last panel's also a nice visual homage to the cover of the first Gravity mini-series.
I was pretty disappointed with Atlas #1, but Atlas #2? Oh yeah, that's the shit.
3-D Man, you're never not terrible, are you?

Really, despite how lame his powers sound, they should be cool. It's stated that he's 3x as strong/fast/etc. as a man at peak physical capability. So on paper, he's Captain America x3. Unfortunately, I don't know how well that works on the comic page. He's strong, but nowhere near as strong as Namora, or even Gorilla Man. So you can't have him doing crazy feats of strength. He's fast, but he's not Quicksilver. He's tough, but he's not M-11. He can't shoot beams out of his eyes, he doesn't carry a shield, a gun, or any other accessory. Outside of his vision powers, which aren't really a visual power, he doesn't have much going for him. So he's just kind of boring to watch.
This is actually addressed later in the issue, where Jimmy tells him that he feels the same way, but can still be the most useful member of the group under the right conditions. So I'm sure Parker's going to set him up to save the team's asses at some point. To me, it seems like he's going to end up tied into that weird dimension that the team traversed in Vol. 2, but I could be wrong. It's been a while since I read those issues.

Punisher, man this is good stuff. Totally awesome. The fight with Hellsgaard was some kickass metal stuff. And issue 17 sees Frank healing from that brawl, chatting a bit with his helper Henry, and visiting his family. A recent enemy tries to kill him at his family's gravesite, so Frank decides it is time to go after the those who tried to take the bounty on him.
My LCS didn't get any copies of XFF, what was Simonson's take on mutants that was hinted at the end of issue #3 by Apocalypse? They can't have kids unless someone like Sinister messes with their genes?
edit: and looking at most of the stuff this week, a lot of comics were darker than normal. Even Pet Avengers got dark. DC of course does it on purpose but other things like ASM and Darkwing Duck, bad week to be happy.
The core thing Apocalypse is on about is his desire to study the
CONTEXT: Luke Cage is trying to convince The Thing to join his Avengers.
ugh
too meta
"maybe it'll grow back bigger" was a good one
Even if Rockslide was only in two panels.
I've been following it so far. Seems decent, mostly grabbed it for that Acuna art. Having said that, street level / espionage Marvel is sometimes the best Marvel so I am curious to see where this goes.
