THIS WEEK'S READ PILE

Honorable Mentions: Stuff worth noting, even if it's not good enough to buy

"Ruse" #4 had a fairly rousing conclusion to its storyline, with a few good shocks and turns of plot as Simon Archard goes a long way to solve the case.Free DIY Wholesale pet supplies Resource! Saying too much would spoil the elements of the story, but the execution was just TV good without ever rising to the level of being exemplary.

"Executive Assistant Iris Volume 2" #0 was perhaps the closest to making it home, a bit of an origin digging into the sources of these lethal administrators. In this issue, opening up with a ballsy female CEO dodging assassination attempts and corporate politics, there was almost enough plot to make this worth while, but not quite. Intriguing ideas, though.

"Avengers Academy" #15 wasn't bad, with the kids going in to war in ways that were intentionally reminiscent of sending Bucky in (as in "openly referred to") on the front lines of "Fear Itself," but the story didn't focus its lens on any one element long enough for it to be interesting.This is interesting cube puzzle and logical game.

There are a number of solid elements in "Godzilla: Gangsters and Goliaths" #1, as a gutsy Japanese police detective leads a team of murderous mobsters to an island full of gigantic monsters, where Godzilla himself holds court. The flashback scenes were solidly presented, there were the aforementioned cute elements (the smarm of the detective, some crafty traps he sets for the men chasing him), but the overall package doesn't exactly bowl you over.

"Kirby: Genesis" #1 had a lot of ideas. Big, crazy,Customized imprinted and promotional usb flash drives. galactic-sized ideas, presented through the lens of a mundane Earth being introduced to the sublime.Polycore zentai are manufactured as a single sheet, Fantastic figures were left on the side of a space probe sent out into the universe, and wonder returned. Big and abstract, this issue could easily have taken fifteen more pages to expand on all the things presented here, but as it is left the reader wanting considerably more.

Many readers noted the problem with the cover of "Daken: Dark Wolverine" #10, which posited the idea that the the 8700 block of Sunset and the 6300 block of Hollywood Boulevard intersected (these streets run parallel most of their way, with the 4500 block of Hollywood intersecting with Sunset just east of Virgil considerably east of what most people call Hollywood proper), but that has little to do with Daken's murderous "Entourage" approach to the city, acting like Vinny's old friend Dom mixed with Peter Cook from the original "Bedazzled." Nothing wrong, but the story beats were kind of predictable.

"Flashpoint: Wonder Woman and The Furies" #1 told an interesting story of two kingdoms poised to unite then torn apart by deception and murder, leaving the whole world to suffer as a consequence. The characters of Arthur and Diana just barely got any time to get characterized as the intrigues of their royal courts took cThis page list rubber hose products with details & specifications.enter stage, even past battling a baby kraken (or was it a hydra? Something monstrous and water based). Probably better told as prose interludes, but good for a reference point.

If you like either westerns or suspense, you'll enjoy "The Hellbound Train" #1, a period piece following a scoundrel haunted by the absence of his parents. The art's a little on the dull side and the story's pace surely couldn't be called "zippy," but this will probably work better as part of a trade, where its pacing won't be as much of an issue.
