Thanos Imperative: Devastation is more of a prologue to the Annihilators mini series coming up than a Thanos Imperative epilogue, but still the usual great story and art from Dna and Sepulveda, who has quickly become one of my favorite artists:
it is essentially Cosmo doing Peter's last wish and recruiting the big hitters to be a permanent staple in the galaxy, and in between the recruitment scenes we see them wreck the shit out of Blastarr and his army.
I am surprised that Ultimate Captain America is my choice this week. If only for the fact that he gets his ass handed to him by a new mystery villain. Ultimate Cap is kind of a dick in my opinion, and not in the good way like USAgent is, he usually just comes off as arrogant and annoying in his dickishness so seeing him get smacked around a bit is quite pleasing.
Now, Cap is doing a joint operation with MI5 to neutralize the N. Korean super-soldier program only to run into the guy who's been helping the Koreans out.
He's having a bit of trouble here and Danvers has to do some checking to find out who our masked guy is.
Holy Shit
It's NUKE!
Apperently Danvers identifies him as the Captain America of Vietnam, a covert soldier that has the same super-soldier formula running through his veins.
Edit: And yes, I am aware Tex beat me to the reveal, but it's still awesome.
I also picked up Reign of Doomsday as well. Lots of cool action throughout the issue and it leaves you wondering what goals Doomsday is working toward (it does allude that he's working toward something even though he appears to be Death of Superman era intelligence levels).

If you can't beat them, arrange to have them beaten in your presence.

ok, Tex. That's a pretty great epilogue. And an awesome team.
My MOTW would be picking up "Who is Jake Ellis?". I bought it after reading the preview that was posted in the new comics thread and it's pretty great and has enough of a sneaky hook to keep me on. Great writing and the art really works with the script. Looking forward to more.

Seconded! This book could be really great, it's already hooked me.

Avengers Prime #5.
that is a thing I wanna see in an Avengers book
Bendis you have won some good will
Alan Davis should be drawing a regular monthly title again, he's never drawn Thunderbolts...
Pretty excited to read the last two issues out of my backpile.
what is the deal with Tony's gigantic sleeves there
I wasn't big on the start of the series, but the last couple books are fantastic, so have fun.
What's wrong with the Super Soldier costume? I like the Fighting American nod of it.
