Comic Day

Amazons Attack 3
Washington DC, Vandenberg AFB, and central Kansas have been attacked by the Amazons, under the increasingly insane leadership of Hippolyta, Wonder Woman's mother. Martial law has been declared, and the superheroes are overwhelmed. But someone else is involved in the war who is attacking with technology instead of Amazon magic. Supergirl and Wonder Girl sort of join the Amazons for a task that will bite them later. This is ok, not great.

Black Panther 28
T'challa and Storm continue to sub for the vacationing Reed and Sue. The team is traveling uncontrollably by means of magic frogs. They have been transported to the Marvel Zombie universe and have to fight undead versions of the Avengers who have already eaten Galactus.

Blue Beetle 16
Eclipso seeks a pure body to possess and sees a perfect baby to take. Jaime has to stop her with the help of Traci Thirteen. This is a fun book. This is the kind of book I wish there were more of.

Countdown 44
More Silver Age powers for Jimmy Olsen. The Monarch makes an appearance. Mary Marvel sees the former Captain Marvel, now Shazam. I am hoping Mary goes back to being the fun, light character she was during the bwa-ha-ha league.

Fantastic Four 547
Reed takes a short break from his vacation with Sue to investigate an alien artifact. He gets assistance from Hank Pym. Sue is attacked by the Frightful Four.

Green Lantern: Sinestro Corps Special 1
Holy crap! This rocked. Sinestro has his corps, dedicated to fear vs the Green Lantern corps dedication to willpower. There is a war coming and the Sinestro Corps has the upper hand. They attacked the GLC headquarters and freed their two most dangerous prisoners, Hank Henshaw, the Cyborg Superman and Superboy Prime last survivor of a destroyed universe, driven mad by loss and Alexander Luthor. Kyle Rayner, the Green Lantern known as Ion, is captured by Sinestro and possessed by Parallax, fear personified. They are all heralds of their master, the Anti-Monitor. Oh yeah! He's back! This is like I'm reading Crisis on Infinite Earths all over again.

Hellboy Darkness Calls 3
Hellboy continues to wander mythic Russia, which is leading up to another confrontation with Baba Yaga. I love the art style in Hellboy, all grays and browns except for the bright, primary red of Hellboy.

She-Hulk 19
Jen is still depowered after her fight with Iron Man. She is currently suing SHIELD and Tony Stark to get her powers back. Mallory Book, an evil lawyer at Jen's firm, calls Jen as a hostile witness on the personality effects of Gamma powers in the trial of the Leader. Jen's past behavior, including trying to sleep with almost every man in the Marvel Universe is broguht to her attention.

Teen Titans 48
Supergirl and Wonder Girl are upset that any woman who has previously encountered Amazons have been interned in camps, including WWonder Girl's mother, and have decided to break her out. The rest of the Teen Titans fight them, and Wonder Girl's mom gets hurt. Miss Martian gets to shine in a fight with Supergirl. After Supergirl and Wonder Girl leave, the army tries to arrest the Titans.

World War Hulk: Front line 1
A view of World War Hulk from the point of view of normal people. Ben Urich, former Daily Bugle writer has started a newspaper with Sally Floyd to publish stories that wouldn't be published otherwise. They were going out of business until an unnamed benefactor gave them the resources to continue. That will be an obvious subplot for later. Not bad, but I don't know if I'll keep getting this.

World War Hulk: X-Men 1
Not bad, mostly a fight scene between the Hulk and various X-Men, culminating in the appearance of the Astonishing X-Men.

X-Factor 20
The former mutant terrorists who have been led to believe that the US government caused M-Day. They were led to believe this by Pietro Maximoff, while it was actually caused by his sister, Wanda. Pietro can give mutants back their powers, but it usually kills them quickly. Big fight scene and Layla Miller, who knows stuff, sets the record straight about M-Day. Rictor may or may not be dead after forcing the Terrigen crystals out of Pietro who doesn't look so good himself.
