It’s that time of the week for comics last week was a little light for me and there wasn’t anything that stood out for me to recommend to everyone so took a little break . There is some good stuff this week and in addition there is some cool freebies you should check out. Justice League Task Force #1 which is a cool glimpse in to the 90’s team book and the glory that implies. The second is Dead Mans Run #0 the art in this book is very cool and the team of Greg Pak, Gale Anne, and pencils by Tony Parker it has pretty good pedigree

Out 8/22

Captain America and Namor #635.1 $2.9

I do not read Captain America with the exception of team books he is in, but this one interests me a great deal. First of all it’s written by Cullen Bunn and because of Deadpool kills everyone I am in love with him. The other thing that interests me is this is set in WWII and there is a Kraken what else do you need. The preview pages I’ve seen reminds me of the 90’s and that makes me happy.

 

Pick of the week 8/15

Harbinger #3 $3.99

So I’ve been talking about this book and how good it is for awhile , but I am not kidding around you need to be reading this. Peter is at the school now and abandoned everything he has cared about. Here is the twist is the school giving him control over his powers or just making him more dangerous. The Harbinger foundation is trying to teach Peter but he is not receptive. My only regret is that Valiant is killing it right now and I can’t afford all the books because I want everything. It’s not too late in fact you could almost jump on here or you could pick up the first two issues which are only $3 right now.

Quick hits

Pathfinder #1 $3.99

This is based on the RPG of the same name , but you don’t need to be interested in the game to enjoy what’s going on here. This is a fine fantasy book that has a lot of good content coming in just under 40 pages. Give it a shot even if you normally don’t read Dynamite books.

 

Deadpool Kills the Marvel universe #3 $2.99

Written by: Cullen Bunn

Art by: Dalibor Talajic

What needs to be said everyone’s least favorite Marvel character/assassin goes and kills more of the Marvel U. This book is very self referential and doesn’t hide it. Unfortunately I think Sean from The Pulllist Podcast called it already on the ending. This book is all one big fourth wall breaking opportunity to get people to calm down with the nerd rage when stuff changes.

 

That’s all I got this week a lot of continuing stories but I know there is a lot of DC 0 issues popping up soon and a good time spend lots of money so start saving those quarters your grandma gave you.
