Pick Of My Pile for the week of 12-23. The Last Pick.

Hello Chums,



A lot of trade reading completed. Check it out. The Boys vol.5 Herogasm. A trade better than the two before it. Really raunchy! And 100 bullets trades 6-13. A very good crime comic from start to finish. Nice art + Hard core story = WINNER!



Here's the picks:



Marvel:



Punisher #12. Frankencastle and the Marvel monsters with Tony Moore art.



Stephen King - Dark Tower - Battle Of Jericho Hill #2 (of 5). End this already.



The New Avengers #60. Micro surgery on (inside) Luke Cage's heart by Hank Pym and Stephen Strange.



Stephen King - The Stand - Soul Survivors #3 (of 5). Maybe the best Marvel book on the shelf currently.



Halo -Blood Line #1 (of 5). The new Halo series with nice art and coloring.



Uncanny X-Men #519. Hank McCoy leaves the X-Men.



Spider-Woman #4. Okay story so far but GREAT art / coloring by Alex Maleev.



Criminal - The Sinners #3 (ICON). Nice Tracy Lawless story so far.



DC:



Detective Comics #860. More Batwoman back story. This has been very good overall. Rucka can write nice women stories. We know that but the Williams III art is great.



APE:



The Black Coat - Or Give Me Death #4 (of 4). An interesting end to a series a loooong time in the making.



Dark Horse:



Hellboy - The Bride Of Hell (one-shot). An entertaining story with Richard Corben art.



The Last Pick Of My Pile is Stephen King - The Stand - Soul Survivors. These Stand mini-series are very good. The story may not follow the book word for word but the story is definitely there. Very enjoyable with super art and coloring.



Keep Reading Comics. I will.
