This week's comic expectations

On the rarest of occasions here on the Gaming Geek blog, we've come across a week so huge that paragraph form just wouldn't do it justice... well, it might do it justice, but it would take me too long since I get crazy wordy... of course, you know that already...

Anyway, with a week this big, we're going to go to the lightning round format!

- Booster Gold #3: The best new book that not enough people are talking about takes a trip to visit Jonah Hex.

- Black Adam: The Dark Ages #2: Teth Adam has his powers again, and everytime he uses them, his chances of resurrecting Isis decrease. If canabalism and deisemboweling yhetis doesn't do it for you, nothing will.

- Fantastic Four #550: Dwyane McDuffie's fun run continues as the FF (plus the Black Panther and Storm) do what they do best, venture into space at the start of a new arc.

- Friendly Neighborhood Spider-man #24: The second part of the supposedly universe-shattering "One More Day" storyline.

- Green Arrow/Black Canary #1: Pissed at the death of Ollie Queen? Well, I don't think it will last long, and this issue kicks off Dinah and Connor's quest to solve the mystery behind the death.

- Green Lantern #24: If I really have to tell you why you want to be reading this issue of the Sinestro Corps War, then you haven't been paying attention lately.

- New Avengers #35: "The Hood" storyline continues, which I'm no big fan of, but there is always the chance of seeing a little advancement in the "Skrull Invasion" story.

- Punisher War Journal #12: Frank Castle getting involved with Hulk's World War. Need I say more?

- Superman #668: The "Third Kryptonian" arc kicks off, as the Superman family is getting bigger again. Is it just me, or is the sudden burst in Kryptonians (Clark, Powergirl, Supergirl, KC Supes, Chris Kent, etc.) a sign of Countdown's coming?

- Wonder Woman #13: Yes, I thought Amazons Attack sucked just as hard as anyone, but GAIL SIMONE takes over the series with this issue! Give it a shot.
