      Flipping through it there's a backup with some ghostly karate/ninja chick with her boobs hanging out.

        I've heard great things about X-Force. Do I need to read from issue 1 or can I pick up with the ArchAngel arc?

Action comics Superman is alot better and I was skeptical at first with the direction they were going with him with him wearing jeans, boots & a t-shirt glad it's worked out so far.
        The current Superman arc just doesn't want to end. Just read #4 and I'm starting to get bored. Don't want to give up on the man of steel yet.

            I'm only on issue 5 and it is awesome so I would recommend it. The first four issues deal with a reincarnated

            A lot of action in each issue but written well to work in each character. I've stopped reading to laugh out loud at some of Deadpool's banter. He is moving up in my favorites with each passing issue. I also wasn't very familiar with Fantomex but he is pure class.

              You can pick up with the Archangel arc, especially if you're completely familiar with all the characters and the past X-men storylines that led up to that arc, but I strongly recommend starting from number one. The first arc really sets the tone for the book, and is a top notch arc in its own right.

              I agree with you about Supes. I'm fine with his characterization, but the plot and the antagonists aren't cutting it.

              Do this today: Instead of $%*#!@& on a game you're not going to play or movie you're not going to watch, say something good about a piece of media you're excited about.

              Do the same thing tomorrow. And the next. Now do it forever.

                That's great to hear! Hopefully they're a huge improvement.

                You guys have convinced me. I'm going to start with issue #1. I haven't read a marvel title since Civil War. Thanks guys!

                      They did the half story thing again in Detective Comics #5.
                      They also seem to have made a massive mistake. Somehow in the poker game with Eli Strange a 10-A straight beats 3 aces and 2 jokers. The king in the straight is a heart but all the rest are spades.

                          Marlon Wayans as Robin?
                          Madonna as Harley Quinn? (Otherwise that one sounds pretty good)

                          Fatale seems as if it'll be a movie or TV show pretty fast. It's only been one issue but it has that vibe.

                            Suicide Squad very entertaining again. Gotta be a record for kills. Seems like they're killing off smaller villians just to say what happend to them in the new 52.

                              I picked up Fatale yesterday. I need to catch up on my comics in a big way.

                                So, Tim Seeley who's the mind behind Hack/Slash which i love is taking over the reigns of Witchblade this month. Quite looking forward to it after having Ron Marz write it for so long.
