Pick Of My Pile for the weeks of 2-18 and 2-25

Hello Chums,


How about a few picks?


My purchases for the week of 2-18 (there's not many of them):


Marvel:



Uncanny X-Men #506. The Beast and Angel are on a mission in Japan, meanwhile Colossus is up against someone from his past.


Wildstorm:


The X-Files #4. The conclusion to a two part clone story.



DDP:


The Zombies That Ate The World #1 (of 8). This is a reprint of the Guy Davis story that originally appeared in Metal Hurlant.





The Pick Of My Pile this week is The Zombies That Ate The World #1. This limited series is off to a very good start.






Week of 2-25:



Marvel:



Marvels Eye Of The Camera #4 (of 6). Phil Sheldon continues his last (? cancer) trek through the beginning of the Marvel universe.



The New Avengers #50. The New and improved Avengers battle The Hood's crew.



The Incredible Hercules #126. This double sized issue features the (Marvel) origin of Hercules.




Stephan King - The Dark Tower - Treachery #6 (of 6). The conclusion of the Treachery arc.



Fantastic Four #564. The most fun I've had with the F.F. in years.




The Mighty Avengers #22. This book might be dropped next issue.



Captain America #47. Where is this story going? It may be time to bring back Steve.



DC / Vertigo:



Jack of Fables #31. The battle is over. Will the story pick up now?



Image:



Elephantmen #16. Still one of the best books out there. The art in this issue is very hit and miss though.



IDW:



Star Trek Countdown #2. Continuing the prequel to the new movie.



Archaia:




Mouse Guard - Winter 1152 #5 (of 6). I wish this book would come out on time.






The Pick Of My Pile this week is Marvels Eye of the Camera #4. This is by far the best issue of the series yet.
