Last Defenders #2 (Marvel) - Last issue She-Hulk, Colossus, Blazing Skull, and Nighthawk were made members of the New Jersey Defenders. Needless to say, not all of them were thrilled with that. Better read those Defenders Essentials, though, because it looks like this series will reference old enemies and events.
Castle Waiting Vol II #11 (Fantagraphics) - Well, now the whole secret passage thing has been resolved, so hopefully we’ll get more info on other characters in the castle. But if I see one more bearded nun…
The Death of Captain America: Fallen Son TPB (Marvel) - These were one-shots by Jeph Loeb (Superman/Batman) about characters in the Marvel Universe dealing with Cap’s death. Each was meant to display a stage of DABDA - Denial, Anger, Bargaining, Depression, and Acceptance. It already came out in hardcover, but I always recommend waiting for the paperback, unless you really loved it.
Titans #1 (DC) - The Teen Titans we know and love (the roster of the Teen Titans tv show) are grown up and off to bigger and better things, but fate, or marketing, will bring them back together to face a new (or old) foe.
Avengers Fairy Tales #2 (Marvel) - While these stories have been fun, like the Spider-man and X-Men fairy tales, they are kind of pointless. BUT, the first issue (Peter Pan) was actually really fun and captivating, probably because of the Windwaker-esque art. This week’s is the story of Pinocchio.
