Hey everyone out there in comic land. It's LBJ here again and yet again we have some AWESOME stuff goin down in comics.
So coming from ICON this week we have KICK-ASS. And this book does kick ass. The story is one that for any comic fan it touches you because you know what it feels like to want to be a superhero. So with kick ass we now see what happens when a comic fan becomes a superhero. Along with being kick ass, this issue is special because CBJ SHOWS UP IN THE BACK OF IT!! That's right we show up in Kick-Ass this month and because of that Mark Millar may be coming by the store this summer, So look out for that.
Also from Icon this week we have CRIMINAL 2. The long awaited second volume to Criminal. This is possibly one of the finest crime noir books in the world today. Set in the 70's, this volume of Criminal follows a boxer named Gnarley and the last days of his career. Brubaker yet again creates a world thats very gritty and real. The cool thing about Criminal is that it is the type of story that can actually happen in the real world which is one of the amazing qualities of this book. Highly recommend you guys come in and check it out.
Another amazing book this week from Marvel is Damage Control. Coming immediately after WWH, Damage Control follows the construction firm and them trying to rebuild New York. This book was absolutely hilarious and was just a really really good read. Totally go read it.
And lastly we have Countdown from DC. Countdown is now in the single digits and is getting a lot better. All hell has broken loose across the DCU and Countdown is whats showing it going down. We have OMACS on APOKOLIPS, THE PIPER HAS THE ANTI-LIFE EQUATION AND SUPERMAN ISN'T IN THIS BOOK!! Now thats a good book right there!. So come read some DCU gone wild!

I want to officially apologize to Waffles about not buying Kick Ass; I promise I will read and most likely enjoy Smokey's copy though.
