I like this because it isn’t the whole usual gay comic story of the only two gay characters in a book meet, immediately fall in love and are monogamous forever without ever looking at another person. While I like the Wiccan/Hulkling relationship, it is a little pollyannaish. Peter David really knows how to capture human interactions.

  • Rolling Stone takes Chris Colfer to a leather bar
    God I hate this character! It’s 2010, how come nobody ever points out what a horrible stereotype he is? We can’t be this desperate to see one more gay on TV. And he’s clearly the worst singer on the whole show.
  • FIRST LOOK: Thor Costume Concept Art
    I really don’t really like this, especially from the waist down. It’s too sci-fi-ish. I was hoping they’d go for and old-school norse feel, at least in the solo Thor movie. There’s something definitely wrong with the Fabio hair. And no helmet? Sacrilege.
  • FIRST LOOK: Captain America costume concept art
    I like this, except for the helmet.
  • Thunderbolts #144 – a new mission for The Heroic Age
    I’m not opposed to the idea of the Thunderbolts, but they always seem to pick the most bizarre collection of third tier bad guys. Man Thing? And wasn’t Juggernaut already reformed?
  • The Heroic Age begins: Secret Avengers #1
    I’m having a hard time getting hyped-up for this. I mean if they’re supposed to be a covert team (as the ‘Secret’ title implies) are Beast (a giant cat… thing), Valkyrie (a medieval style axe-wielding super model) and Nova (a glowy rocket guy) really the best low profile choices?
