THIS WEEK IN COMICS!! WEEK 19

Hey there people. It's once again that time for some THIS WEEK IN COMICS. Sorry for being late with this one and just to make up for it I'm going to expand this week from 4 titles to 6 titles. And as for week 20. It will be on time for Sunday night. Well let's stop with the delays and get down to it.

There are only so many Joker stories in the world that are actually good and I found one this week in Batman: The Joker's Last Laugh. It was absolutely everything that a Joker tale should encompass. Death, crazy and lots ands lots of Joker. So the basis of Last Laugh is that the Joker has found out that he has an incurable cancer and than proceeds to transform all the villains in the slab into version of himself. It's a fairly quick read but throughly enjoyable and definitely worth reading. If you like the Joker or Batman go get this book.

Now since Secret Invasion is in full swing that mean so are the tie-ins. One tie-in that everyone should be reading is MIGHTY AVENGERS. With Mighty Avengers now being a focus on who is and who isn't a skrull, we see if the Sentry is or isn't. It's really cool to see how they explore his being sought by the skrulls and everything that might cause them to grab him or to not grab him. If you want to get the complete full rounded out view of Secret Invasion than definitely go get Mighty Avengers.

Someone wants Batman dead. Well that's what the new major Batman story says. Starting in Batman #676, we see the very beginnings of this new tale of Batman. In #676 we aren't introduced to too much. I mean it's pretty lack for details but in the coming months Grant Morrison will probably beat you in the head with a stick regarding details. Once into a story Morrison usually gets a good beat and tone going. His entire run on Batman has been about giving small little clues that are building to a much grander tale. So definitely worth reading and it's an awesome jump on point for people who haven't been reading Batman for awhile.

You should be reading the Walking Dead and if your not than you need to be beating with the stick that Grant Morrison was using before. Walking Dead is by far one of the greatest comics ever. It's a human nature comic with zombies in the background. It really is the most intriguing comic ever and I'm not going to tell you anything more than that because trying to describe it is hard and you should just be reading it already.

Another book you should be reading is MOUSE GUARD. This book is quite beautiful. It's about a trio of Mice who, in their world, are like the protectors of the realm. As the story progresses you are introduced to a cast of amazingly well thought out characters and an amazingly lush environment. The graphic novel actually has the entire area the book takes place mapped out in the beginning of the book so you can actually mark where the cast has been and what not. Now this first volume is called Fall1152 and is part of a series. I'm not 100% about the amount of parts so just go read Mouse Guard.

And now lastly we are at the SIXTH title for the week. We have Cthulhu Tales. Cthulhu Tales is a new ongoing anthology series featuring the characters of H.P. Lovecraft. It's really cool to see all the different takes of the various characters that Lovecraft created. In issue one the first story is about a preacher who meets a blind man who can supposedly see demons. It isn't till the blind man dies that you find out if he could or couldn't see the demons. It's one of those books that you may hate the first story but totally dig the next 3. So definitely check it out and get back to me.

Well that's it for this week. Again sorry It was late but with 2 extra books in this one and maybe for the new TWIC this week I think I made up for being late. Laters everyone
