Wolverine #67
Mark Millar has definitely come up with some enjoyable possible-Marvel-future quirks which stem from the fact that the villains from his 1985 series clearly somehow win and take over the world. Which world that is remains to be seen, but it's surely one where Spidey doesn't get back together with Mary Jane... unless they adopt. I'm not sure how this will tie in with Fantastic Four yet, but props for bringing the badass back to Hawkeye. (A)
Green Lantern #33
The reasons for the retelling of Hal Jordan's origin begin to become clear as Geoff Johns shows the seed planting for the Blackest Night saga. I just wish it would hurry up and get here so I know that this was worth it. I do, however, like the way Johns clouds GL's identity from Carol Ferris. Always nice to give a reason why superheroes' girlfriends never realize their dudes' secret identities. (A-)
Thor #10
We're almost a year into this series and Thor still hasn't fought @#$%, save for a brief argument with Iron Man and an imaginary tussle alongside his pops in the underworld. Don't get me wrong, this everlasting setup is extremely well written and the art is beautiful, but can't something happen every once in a while? And how many pin-up covers of Thor just standing around can we possibly need? (B)
