The Ettatorial for the Week of 12-30-09 or, The Ettatorial Year-Ender
Well folks, it’s time for the last Ettatorial of the year. And this finale for 2009 couldn’t have been any better scheduled. Why you ask? Well, Diamond Comics Distributors made this week a shipping skip week, making it so no new releases came out (well, except DC’s massive hit Blackest Night #6, but that was [...]
The Ettatorial for the Week of 12-23-09
Simply put, a huge week of releases this week. Adding to that two books released last week that had been sold out locally (Next Issue Project #2 and Daytripper #1 for those wondering at home), and the busy holiday week equals a bit of a cheat for me here. Instead of a recommendation, I’m going [...]
The Ettatorial for the Week of 11-25-09
A truly great week of releases this week, making it very difficult for me to pick just what was my pick of the week. Instead, I’m going to go with a quick run down of my purchases and let you be the judge.
The Ettatorial for the Week of 11-18-09
A fine week of releases this week, with two books getting my attention. So without further ado, here we go.
First up this week is Amazing Spider-Man #612. The first part of The Gauntlet, if this opening shot is a good indicator where this will be heading, we’re definitely in for a good time. Mark Waid [...]
The Ettatorial for the Week of 10-21-09
A bit of a change this week, as while I purchased 6 books this week, I haven’t yet had a chance to read them as of writing this (working 12 hour days and having a child will do that to you). Instead, while all of you are reading this, I will be sitting in St. [...]
The Ettatorial for the Week of 9-30-09
A small week of releases for me this week, only three in total. As such, only one book gets the nod for book of the week.
My pick this week is Amazing Spider-Man #607. Under the pen of Joe Kelly, Spider-Man has all of the trade-mark humor that I personally love in the character. Witty banter, [...]
The Ettatorial for the Week of 9-23-09
A large week of releases this week, and something weird happened. After reading all my purchases, I honestly had a problem picking out the best of the week. Once I picked one out, another issue made the argument that it was just as good, and just as deserving. That just kept happening, and I just [...]
The Ettatorial for the Week of 7-22-09
A small, but decidedly great week of releases this week. Only three books on the purchases stack, all of them worthy of attention. But one really deserves the attention more so than the others, so read on.
The pick of the week for this week is Amazing Spider-Man #600. Clocking in at a whopping 104 pages, [...]
The Ettatorial for the Week of 5-27-09
A very good week of new releases, with a sizable amount of books for picks of the week.
First up this week is Ignition City #3. Ellis’ space/western continues, and with each issue manages to outdo himself. I truly think this series is the best thing he has written since Planetary or Transmetropolitan. This issue sees [...]
The Ettatorial for the Week of 4-15-09
A nice week of releases, though short one due to the sell-out of Godland at my local store. With that in mind, here are your picks of the week.
The first pick for this week is Incognito #3. Basically at it’s halfway point, this series is still defying expectations of just what it is. The blend [...]
