More reviews, this week Secret 6 is mid-arc, JSA brings more awesome, we tie up some dangling threads for Avengers: Initiatve, and those who still have their brain Resist Final Crisis.
REVIEW: X-Force #8
X-Force hunt down The Vanisher, who last issue stole the mutant-killing Legacy Virus, but fail in their initial attempt as a the mission is compromised by a meeting with Domino, a member of the previous incarnation of X-Force. Putting their differences aside, the team eventually capture their prey through rather extreme measures, which is of course this team’s MO.
REVIEW: Popgun Volume 2
Following the mix-tape analogy, Popgun is more a collection of very good pop songs with a few indie tunes thrown in; the rather more progressive and heavier elements do permeate through occasionally but the general tone is definitely on the lighter side.

From Inside my own Thought Bubbles
Welcome to the inside of my thought bubbles. I’m Aaron Glazer, as you no doubt noticed (giving you a bit of credit to start) and I used to write East of Gotham and comic reviews for the Nexus.

REVIEW: Superman #680
Written by James Robinson
Art by Renato Guedes
For years Krypto has been a running gag of the Superman line. I mean, a super powered dog? Come on, that’s just dumb. Why would Superman need a dog with his powers? A dog that could easily kill most of Metropolis by accident while chasing after a truck or [...]
ADVANCE REVIEW: X-Men: Original Sin #1
Original Sin has all the makings of a well constructed crossover emerging organically from a wider storyline (or two). Hopefully this will begin to tie up some of the loose ends hanging over Wolverine’s past, while moving Carey’s Legacy book down some exciting new avenues.
