Hey there everyone. It's me once again, Mr LB Jones. So this week we got some oldies but goodies that were re-released,we got some well known characters clashing with some well known characters and we have The Bomb Queen.
So Marvel has finally gotten around to re-printing the original Punisher mini-series that started it all. Circle of Blood is by far one of the best Punisher stories ever!. It opens with the Punisher in Rykers and damn near everyone is scared of the man. So cut ahead to him finally out of jail and back to the war. Pretty much this is the basis of every and all Punisher stories. He goes and kills a lot of Mafia while finding out that there is some crazy conspiracy against him. I was already a huge fan of the Punisher before but thanks to the amazingly beautiful hardcover I am an even bigger fan now.
This week I was finally able to read the first three volumes of BOMB QUEEN and my god is this book crazy. Bomb Queen is about a super villain who owns a city named New Port City. If you live within the confines of New Port, life is damn near crazy. In the decade of Bomb Queen's rule, she has established various zones around the city such as Crime, Drugs, Prostitution, Residential and Business . Now Bomb Queen herself is a sex crazed explosion crazy woman. Volume one focuses on Bomb Queen's rule being challenged by the new mayoral candidate. It's totally worth checking out and is friggin' hilarious. Definitely not for anyone under the age of 16.
This week we have the new issue of NOVA! Oh man was it awesome. All hell is breaking loose on a planet and they called Nova for help. Turns out Galactus is eating the planet. That's just the quick outline. It gets better. So this crazy monster thing is...... wait no. Just go read it. I'm not ruining this for anyone. But if you haven't been reading Nova this is the perfect issue to start.
And lastly we have Midnighter. This book is just knock down drag out brawls and I love it! So the entire story arc that wraps up in this months issue has just been watching Midnighter get knocked out, impersonated and than kicking the ass of the impersonator. Now I bet your saying to yourself "Couldn't I just read Wolverine and get the same stuff?" Yes you can but Midnighter is cooler than Wolverine and has better powers. So stop sitting there at work or in computer class and go get this book!!
