Comics:

Marvel:

  • Dark Tower: Gunslinger – Little Sisters of Eluria – This trade paperback collects this tale of The Gunslinger, almost always a solid choice
  • DareDevil #22 – Because Mark Waid is “The Man” and is turning out awesome stories! In this issue DD teams up with the new Suprior Spiderman as they fight Doc Oct and … Stilts Man? Really? Stilts. man. I’m sure Mr. Waid can pull this out

 DC:

  • Team 7 #4 – Team 7 takes on Eclipso and Slade, plus mysteries of Deathstroke’s past revealed! Also unintentional double pick for Slade this week
  • Deathstroke #16 – Looks like Slade’s about to have a show down with his son
 Indie: 
  • The Crow: Skinning the Wolves #2 – Apparently the Crow isn’t just hard to kill in the story. This time the soul is returned to apparently wreak revenge on some Nazis. Not a bad way to go, it’s always worked for Indiana Jones.
  • Saga #9 – It’s the latest issue of Saga … how is it not in your pull list already?
Web:
  • The Trenches – This comic is the combined efforts of the guys from Penny Arcade and Scott Kurtz of PVPonline. It’s also brilliant … which I guess isn’t really a surprise. The story follows a group of game testers and the weird wild world that major game testing is.
