June 2008 Comics

As always, spoilers below!

X-Men Legacy #213
- Legacy's pace has been the complete opposite of the pace of Mike Carey's run on X-Men. Finally, with this issue, things seem to be gaining some speed. Sinister is my favorite villain, and I'm glad to seem him return in some capacity.

Captain Britain and MI: 13 #2 - Awesome. I know next to squat about Arthurian legend, but this issue was still great. I hope this series sticks around for a while. Things are looking really good.

Teen Titans #60 - Damn. I was hoping Wonder Girl would leave the team, not Ravager. Robin, Miss Martian, Kid Devil, Ravager, and Blue Beetle would be an awesome team line-up. Other than that, this issue was alright. I'm still not completely sold on the Terror Titans, and the whole Dark Side Club thing confused me. The new Clock King intrigues me, though.

X-Factor #32 - Sigh. I thought this was supposed to be Pablo Raimondi's last issue. If I had known it was going to be a fill-in (and a very capable fill-in at that), I would have savored the previous issue a little more. I'm going to miss Raimondi's art on this book, and I'm dreading Stroman coming on board. I miss Layla.

Secret Invasion: Runaways/Young Avengers #1 - Eh, it was an alright issue. I can't decide if I liked the art or not. Some characters looked great (most of the Runaways), while others looked like eight year olds (most of the Young Avengers). Also, what's up with the Young Avengers changing clothes between panels? Speed goes from a sport coat to an orange shirt to his costume all in the same page. For only being a three issue mini, this was a little too much set up for my taste.

Uncanny X-Men #499 - What was the point of this story again? Oh yeah, that's right--to stall time until issue 500.

Immortal Iron Fist #16 - Fat Cobra in a tie. That's all that needs to be said.
