X-Club #2 : Doc Nemesis investigates the ocean and stumbles into multiple dimensions at once. It starts to kill him. (Also, there's a sea creature on his head that vocalizes his thoughts.)
Action Comics 5, was a fantastic Grant Morrison issue. Lots of threads for future stories being set up, and the goat from issue 2 is explained. Also, KRYPTO!
also the variant cover for #5

Uncanny #4, don't buy the issue, it's not that good. This is the best part, a cool Colossus scene
OMAC #5, it didn't wow me but it did its job, I almost get a feeling that the OMAC/Frankenstein fight was in some ways mocking the Spawn/Batman fight from the 90's. Dry cool wit like this means Itchy and Scratchy Land for everyone
this thread was designed to be "hey these are the comics I enjoyed this week"
and you said don't buy this issue and also this issue didn't really wow me but here are some scans

It's both a cool moment and good books thread. Again, good moments can come from bad comics. One page and a panel cannot save a bad issue, but you can still say "this is a cool moment" and advise people to not pick up that issue, maybe buying something else they see here instead. For example if someone posts something important out of X-Sanction it might not mean that they liked the issue, just that it was a big moment that we should be aware of. A few people check out this thread before going to the store, cautionary advice can help.
Digging into my stack , and had to stop and share, this wasn't really a good moment for myself, but it's definately a testament to how fun X-club is, altho I will have to get a 2nd copy now.
Cause I got to the 3rd page of Nemesis Subliminal Sea Creature stuff, before laughing so hard I snotted onto the page !

Animal Man- Creepy as usual, the last page was great Swamp Thing-It's been very slow, but I feel like this is the best issue yet, better than Animal Man. Some really great spreads, Holland uses his powers like a boss. OMAC-just, pure fun. Wordy as fuck without slowing down the pace, good art, it feels like a modern day silver age book and I get my money's worth out of it.

Uncanny X-Force #19.1, great issue, as is expected, Stryker is a true patriot against the muties, but I think Remender had a little fun with this scene
It felt like a joke about how everyone X-Men (or the important mutants) kept their powers on regular M-Day
Billy Tan's art looks really good when Villarrubia colors his work.
And Villains for Hire #2 continues the good work, as Tiger Shark has never read Shocker: Legit.

Well he escaped during Fear Itself in Thunderbolts, then he showed up in Spider-Island turning all spider-ish, and now he's running around as a villain for hire. Along with Avalanche, it seems to be a matter of editors not checking or just expecting everyone to ignore how Shocker wanted to be a hero.

I like it a lot. I love that matt fraction is writing absurd. It's a ton of fun and he really gets the characters, even though it's through a bit of a...sillier tint.

(obviously no one actually put that fanfic into continuity, but the idea of Shocker turning face was a good one, imo)
Swamp Thing and Animal Man though... god DAMN.
Well, at least it's not the usual trope of the smartass getting proved wrong and being punched through a window.
A fun bombastic crazy team book is something I have wanted for a while and this one has 3 of my favorite Marvel characters on it.
