Uncanny X-Force, pretty colors…but I can't stand Humphries' writing, this is a pass for me. On the other hand, FF continues to be amazing, talk more about that!

Edgar Wright Ant-man, and Marvel finally will have a project with a director that's better than mediocre, or journeyman status.
Who is the good talent behind the camera? Cause I haven't seen those films yet apparently.
Interesting, we generally found this week to be on par with the premiere, as in good but not great…but seriously, what's up with the Duncan Sheik?
Disagree respectfully, his Iron Man reads like a guy who got it shoved down his throat rather than having a specific story he's been burning to tell. This and Captain America have been the big disappointments of Marvel Now for me, though I won't touch the X-Force books with a ten foot pole.
@avclub-5c7646b1d39fc0715f330479e4e5f254:disqus fair enough, but there are some niggling gaps around that part of the story that I found bothersome personally. Mainly things related to Odin, and Thor's unexplained resurrection from death by the end…I dunno, maybe I missed something.
@avclub-ba11e5f269e8f132321d3ac144289c97:disqus god damnit. :-(

Everything Hellboy does in that movie is hilarious. "Thats a fine ass pussymobile, mothafucka!"
You are wise in your ways sir!
1. No Country for Old Men
2. A Serious Man
3. The Big Lebowski
4. Barton Fink
5. Miller's Crossing
I'll be honest, I'm not much of a True Grit fan, and O Brother Where Art Thou is starting to grate on me whenever I see it on tv.
I always thought it was the perfect real follow-up to No Country, whereas Burn After Reading felt infinitely less interesting generally.
I'm not gonna lie, I'm really anticipating the Levitz/Giffen reunion on LSH, which is a part of the Young Justice line. It's not a spectacular book or anything, but this Fatal Five storyline is far, far better than what's going on with the Mackie/Lobdell/DeFalco stuff.
Unfortunately, you'll also have to read Fraction's terrible Fear Itself to have any clue as to what's going on in the first two trade paperbacks, which only tell about half the story.
@avclub-9349e20458f64c9bfb83b5221e145937:disqus That actually gives me better hope that it could happen than my random guessing that DC would find something for one of comics' most talented writers to take on.
Yeah, I was kinda hoping they were pushing for a more morally gray Eddie Blake and that if Cooke had made the choice you and I both thought he might go with, there might have been some redemption for him as a silver lining…but nah, he's as big an asshole as we all thought. Still, a beautiful miniseries, and paired…
My four favorite super-hero titles right there, give or take Wonder Woman and Batwoman, and probably FF too (but NOT F4, which has been shockingly mediocre so far)
Probably a wise move, though each issue has that Second Story stuff that I'm not sure will make it to the trade necessarily. Trade-offs, eh…
Young Avengers is probably the best Saturday Morning Action Cartoon we never got, that art was incredible. BUT, Mind MGMT #7 was my book of the week, unbelievable meta stuff, I can't wait to see how the story in the margins will tie into what Meru and Lyme are up to.
