The Quick Stack

Thunderbolts #119
Good @#$%. (A)

Avengers: The Initiative #10
@#$% just seems to constantly be going down at Camp Hammond as recruits continue to kick the bucket and change alliances. And the book is funny too. (A)

Wolverine #63
Somehow, the impossible has happened and there are two interesting Wolverine books at the same time. Origins still sucks, though. (A)

X-Factor #29
Emo Rictor's starting to get pretty annoying and as broken up as Madrox is supposed to be about Layla, he sure doesn't seem to be doing much. But, it's still the best X-book, and these days, that's actually saying something. (A)

Fantastic Four #555
Not a whole lot happened other than Johnny getting cowgirled by Random Super-Villain Chick With Green Hair. (It was green, right?) At least the FF will maybe fight a giant Captain America robot next issue. Also, according to Bryan Hitch, all females talk while sticking their tongue out. Still good though. (A-)

Last Defenders #1
Don't know why you would need She-Hulk and Colossus on the same team, but with the bit at the end about occult masters and water elements, it seems that at least one of them will probably be getting replaced by the featured characters of the books brief interludes. Overall, the book sort of has the fun vibe of MODOK's 11, but we'll have to see where it goes. (B)

Mighty Avengers #10
WTF was the point of that? Is Ultimate Peter Parker secretly under both Iron Man and Doctor Doom's armor? Does no one at Marvel realize how many times Tony Stark has been blown up or presumed dead in the past couple months? And isn't their time travel logic completely different that what it was in this piece of @#$%? (D)
