The Ettatorial for the Week of 5-12-10
A huge week of releases this week, full of event books, with Marvel putting out the ending of Siege and it’s assorted tie-ins, and DC releasing Justice League Generation Lost and The Return of Bruce Wayne. Big events all, but all of them sort of lacking in something to rise above the rest. Honestly, the [...]
The Ettatorial for the Week of 5-5-10
A small and manageable week of releases this week, only four purchases in all. All were enjoyable (though I may not continue on with Brightest Day, we’ll see) but one was better than the rest, and as such gets the nod for pick of the week. Your pick for this week is Secret Six #21. [...]
The Ettatorial for the Week of 4-28-10
A very large week of releases this week, especially in light of it being Free Comic Book Day on Saturday. So with the wealth of material released, there was a lot to choose from. One of the free releases came mighty close to being picked (Iron Man/Thor from Marvel), but seeing as how some people [...]
The Ettatorial for the Week of 4-21-10
A small week of releases this week, only three in total. They actually ran the gamut of quality, from great to good to bad, and as such I’ve got a book all picked out for you. Your pick this week is Brave and the Bold #33. This one will be a hard one to review, [...]
The Ettatorial for the Week of 4-14-10
A fairly large week of releases this week, with Marvel making this a Siege -centric tie-in week, and DC releasing Brightest Day #0. But those didn’t really do it for me, instead it’s my pick of the week that deserves some attention. Your pick for this week is Powers #4. This is a title that [...]
The Ettatorial for the Week of 4-7-10
The smallest week I think I’ve ever had, with only only book released this week. Even though it was actually pretty good, (it was Batman and Robin #11 if you were wondering) I can’t just pick the only book I purchased as a pick of the week. As such, I’m going with a trade paperback [...]
The Ettatorial for the Week of 3-31-10
A small week of releases this week, a total of just three purchases made. And while my selection for pick of the week isn’t earth shattering, it does fit with this holiday weekend. What is it, and what’s with the lame holiday reference? Read on. My pick this week is Amazing Spider-Man #627. While I’ve [...]
The Ettatorial for the Week of 3-24-10
A fairly large, yet uneventful week of releases this week, causing me to dip back into the well for a trade paperback selection for you. What is it and why should you care? Read on, faithful readers. Your pick this week is Fortune and Glory by Brian Michael Bendis. Yes, the same Bendis that now [...]
The Ettatorial for the Week of 3-17-10
A nice week of releases this week, and finally a week that merits a pick instead of a trade paperback selection. As a matter of fact, I was close to selecting two books (the other being Amazing Spider-Man #625), but decided against it at the last minute. So what did make the cut, you ask? [...]
The Ettatorial for the Week of 3-10-10
A fairly large week of releases this week, and a busy one here at the Etta household. As such, I’m being lazy this week, and leaving you with a visual guide to books purchased by me. All of them were actually very good, an improvement over the last couple weeks’ releases. I’d love some comments [...]
