This Week in Comics

Daredevil #112
Plot thickens? or muddies?  Not for sure why the Hand is resurfacing and looking to spank Daredevil and his merry band of kung fu fighting friends (tarantula...who the heck is that?).  Hey Dakota is still in the mix...when does she get to do some butt kicking?  Looks like next issue is the beat down hopefully there is more than just a teaser with the Lady melting into the background and nothing meaningful happens to our heroes.






Captain America #43
A filler issue!  What is up with that and why do all these heroes seem to be on Viagra?  I mean Bucky and Natasha (Dakota and Daredevil, see above), and Cyclops and whoever is most kinky this week.  What is in the Marvel Universe's water or maybe should I say what is up with balding old married men writing this stuff?  A sex therapist would have a field day commenting on what is being translated on the pages...






Secret Invasion #7
Almost there, almost there...stay on target...Pretty decent issue which should be interesting to see how this all resolves.  I am still thinking that Bendis is really going to leave a big giant mess that will make all of us angry (see House of M).  Love Spider-Man's comment about Uatu.  Luke Cage and Jessica were cute (she is a pathetic superhero..).  Bet there baby is sacrificed or something and the New Avengers will have the old team back in business (oh year Iron Man will make a dramatic re-entrance.





Ultimate Spider-Man #127
I thought this was Carnage and Venom.  Really kind of boring.  Art still good but what happens to Gwen.  Bendis needs to kick it up a notch this series has been slowwwwww
