Hand in Glove

I know it was actually Brubaker who wrote it, but when I'm on trial for beating Mark Millar to death with a pool cue, I will say, in my defense, that he was the person ultimately responsible for killing Captain America, and there will be somebody on the jury for whom that will be a viable defense, and I'll walk.

Yes, I know.  Cap will come back.  But this shit has Gone Too Far.

Alright, with that out of the way ...

Dark Tower:  The Gunslinger Born #2 has given me the happy.  This 7-issue series is Roland's childhood history as related the first time in The Gunslinger and Wizard and Glass.  Susan Delgado arrived in this issue.  For those who've read W&G, you know the heartbreak ahead.  It is going to be a wonderful read.

Civil War: The Initiative has some poo in it, being a Civil War piece, but there's some nifty stuff, too.  Previews of Omega Flight, which I'll probably snap up (5-issue series).  Last panel in the book showcases a somewhat funky-looking version of the old silver-and-black War Machine armor, so I'll probably take a look at Avengers: The Initiative.

Iron Man: Hypervelocity is rocking my socks.  The mostly-sentient armor's internal monologues are really working for me.  This limited series is really pushing my old cyberpunk buttons, and it's the kind of story that I would have really gone bugnuts for way back when.

And I've got a shiny new idea for the All Flesh Must be Eaten game.  This just might come together.

Fall-In

No joy on Blue Planet, so we're going to give Trinity a shot on weekends.  Clears up Thursday nights for something else.

I'd better get cracking.
