Oh snap, the NXT women debuted on Raw?! I've got some catching up to do!

I want to see Cass start a couple of matches just to break that formula up a bit. And he's not allowed to just do one power move and then tag out, which he always does — which makes no sense if Enzo has been getting beat up for ten minutes before Cass gets a shot.
I've never read an Archie book in my life. I think it's a very specifically American thing. In fact, I don't think I've ever even seen an Archie book.
I read the rest of vol 2 of Rat Queens, which was great, but I haven't really read anything else much this week because I have been obsessed with playing Marvel Puzzle Quest, a stupidly addictive match-three puzzle game on android. Collecting various "covers" and levelling up my guys has been way too involving, if I'm…
Marvel's Agents of M.I.L.F.
Oh right. I guess we agree then! Carry on.
Yes but there was no need to be so Kurt.
You should read Grant Morrison's run on New X-men from the early 2000s, followed by Joss Whedon's Astonishing X-men. Great Cyclops stuff in those books ("Welcome to the black bug room…"), and great X-men books in general.
Whedon did great work with Cyclops in Astonishing (building on Morrison's stuff, but still).
Arclight looks great, and after Prophet I'm down for whatever Brandon Graham is cooking up.
Haha yeah, early X-men. Yeesh.
That's another thing that Asylum does better than City. In Asylum there's a great sense of pace that comes from unlocking each new gadget and being able to access areas that were previously unreachable — the Metroid approach. In City it's more like, "Here's a cool new gadget, and here's another cool new gadget, and…
His dinky little bounces off the ropes and swings under the bottom rope from outside the ring actually really irritate me. They have absolutely zero momentum to them and just look kinda stupid.
Eh, I'll wait for the trade. (Just kidding, this is awesome!)
Fables was a book I enjoyed but was happy to finish up with after the War and Pieces trade. It just seemed like a natural end point, and given what I've heard about the stories that followed, I think that's a choice I'll stick with. I would still like to read 1001 Nights of Snowfall sometime, though.
I jumped into Uncanny Avengers based on my love for Remender's X-Force run, and I enjoyed it enough despite it not really living up to my lofty expectations. I was a bit annoyed to see it dragged into crossover hell with Axis, though. I've fallen behind on it and I can't imagine I'll ever get past volume 4 at this…
Beads.
Seems ridiculous when they're struggling to pad out three hours of Raw every week. I agree, those documentary bits are gold.
This looks awesome. Great creators, interesting format. I'm totally sold.
Here's one for the suggestion box. I'd really like it if the Raw and NXT reviews came with a letter grade— not because I care about whether a show gets a B or a B+ or anything, but because it'd be useful for someone like me, who can't always be bothered to watch a three-hour show if it's going to be an off week (and…
