A lot of good stuff this week. From Wolverine Weapon X to X-Force and X-Factor to Runaways to Secret Warriors to Thor, Hulk and Amazing Spider-Man. Weapon X is classic Wolverine, doing what he does best. X-FOrce is the deadly side of the X-Men and right now X-23 is having her arms waved around in front of her. With X-Factor Jamie Madrox has time traveled to a possible future, as usual it seems, where Mutants aren't doing so hot. Maybe with the help of a senile yet still genius Doctor Doom the problems of this futrure can be solved. As for the Runaways, what's not to love about a pack of kids trying to runaway from being like their super villain parents? All they want is a place of their own without all the problems of adults. Over in Secret Warriors it's Nick Fury running a rag tag team of nobodies into capable heroes to take down Norman Osborn's H.A.M.M.E..R. that replaced S.H.I.E.L.D.. Currently it looks like it's about to be father vs. son as Ares, Gad of War, may have to fight his son, the God of Fear. With Thor, it's Thor, he's the God of Thunder, I need say no more. Saying he's been banished from Asgard though doesn't hurt, and that he's at one of his lowest moments of power. Then in Hulk, it's still the question of who is the Red Hulk? Domino may have accidentally stumbled onto the answer, but now she's been chased down by a teeam the red Hulk has put together to kill her when she's found. But she's called on some friends of her own for backup, Wolverine and the X-Force. Finally there's Amazing Spider-Man. Last ish the beautiful Black Cat laid one on him and a live feed camera happened to be rolling and guess who saw everything? The hottest redhead in the Marval U, Mary Jane Watson. The life of Peter Parker is never boring, it's also never easy.

Still no boards and bags this week, but oh well. Saw that the comic shop had 4 volumes of The Boys trades. I plan to pick them up when I can. Wouldn't be so bad if they weren't $20 a piece. Violence & vulgarity like that though is worth it. Superheroes at their worst, which makes them at their best in a twisted way. I also spotted an old trade of the Adam Warren Dirty Pair comic. It was the tenth anniversary of the first series, Biohazards. Going to have to try and pick that up next week.

While I was in Greenville I though it would be wise to stop by the Barnes & Noble and check to see if they have any copies of Gunsmith Cats Burst volume 4. Since it just came out I thought they might have some in. Looked around and didn't see it on the shelves so I talked to the guy at the customer service kiosk and he said he had it on order. Gave him my info and I should get an email when it comes in.

Now if you'll excuse me I have some reading material to go get lost in.
