Comic of the week Iron Man vol 4 #5


this was a very good issue that in a way retold the Iron Man origin for the modern times and this is one of my alltime favorite stories. to see Tony Stark become an Iron Man inside and out was shocking and not expected but i loved it. hmm, i wonder if this will tie into what he's going through now in vol 5....

to those that call Captain America a tool






















i can tell the ones that aren't fans because they don't know what Cap's about, they are the ones that sit up in LCS and talk about manga comics, play with Magic cards, watch and recite line for line words and fights from anime films and talk about things that they have no idea about( Oh, the Punisher was never trying to kill himself...). Cap was created during WW2 in oder to give HOPE to americians and give them a fighting spirit.In oder to know how Cap started it is imporant to collect issues from the 1940s, you never tell a fan," oh, who collects any issues from the 1940s?, they don't matter"...YOU ARE NOT A FAN if you say that. Cap didn't just start in the 60s , and it's his spirit that makes us true fans apperciate him more. He has quit being Cap before many times because of the Goverment wanting him to be something more for them and not the people.Check out Captain America #332 for what i just said. Some people are upset with Steve coming back and asking what's going to happen with Bucky while forgetting that Marvel last year announced that there will be a Winter Solider ongoing comic series and these, i'm sure, are the same people that vote on Marvel.com a few days after Cap #25 came out and voted to bring Steve back right away.I'm not going to lie, i hated the end of Civil War #7, it took me a full year afterwards to collect that issue.( I hated Iron Man a long time after that and when UA2 cames out, i'm kicking his Iron butt) But i knew that Steve would be back and it makes me sick that fans that don't really read Capatain America talks about him as well as the independent comic and DC comic readers that rip Marvel any chance they get while their companies print out boring and bad product. one said that this was suppose to be the final nail in Marvell's coffin, I don't know what planet he's on or from , but Marvel is the top comic company now and with the Dark Regin and Cap fully coming back things will only get bigger and better.

Comic Of The Week Uncanny X Men #212


Every Wolverine fan should have this issue, where it starts to reveal and for the very first time has Logan VS Sabertooth. Good stirytelling and the fact of seeing where Logan has advanced from the hothead from when he first joined the team until that point to when he knew when to fight and not go into his beserker rage.

here are the Covers to Captain America: Reborn #1




check it out

Comic Of The Week: Captain America #600







I am very pleased with this issue, from the beautiful origin done by Alex Ross to the Reprint from Captain America #16 from the 1940s. The " One Year Later " story is the main story , telling stories from the sides of Sharon Carter, The Falcon, the Bucky from the 2nd vol of Cap during the Heroes Reborn storylines,The New Avengers, The Red Skull and finally Bucky. Norman Osborn is really asking for it by trying to top Cap's death with his little speech while on the stage during the Vigilant of Cap's " death". This is the perfect lead in to "Rebirth". And to see old faces from his ex Bernie to the Selling of items from Cap's life to Joe Simon's bulletin board to the reprint of " Red Skull's Deadly Revenge !"
