Pick Of My Pile for the week of 8-13-08

Hello Chums,

Check out my pile.

Marvel:

Ultimate Origins #3 (of 5). It's Prof. X meeting Magneto for the first time in the Ultimate Universe.

Secret Invasion #5 (of 8). Spoilers! The newly alive Mockingbird is a Skrull. What a pisser. Who's next Captain America?

Daredevil Saga (free). Primer for Daredevil jumping on point #111.

The Punisher Kills The Marvel Universe (one-shot). The Punisher kills the Marvel Universe. Nuff said.

Astonishing X-Men #26. I'm starting to warm up to Simon Bianchi's art.

Fantastic Four #559. Millar and Hitch. This arc is shaping up to be better than the first.

Universal War One #2 (of 3?). (Soleil) The best art this week by far. Check back for full review when this story is completed.

Halo Uprising #3 (of 4). Even though the delays on this book are unforgivable, the story and art make up for it.

Dark Horse:

B.P.R.D. The Warning #2. Good story so far with Guy Davis art.

Hellboy The Crooked Man #2 (of 3). Continuing on with the best Hellboy story in a while. And with Richard Corben art!

IDW:

Star Trek Year Four: Enterprise Experiment p.4. Kirk and Co. with Romulans and Klingons. What more do you need to know?

Star Trek Mirror Images #2. The Mirror Universe Kirk vs. Pike for the Enterprise.

Where's the DC books? Oh yeah, they (currently) suck.

The Pick Of My Pile this week is Ultimate Origins #3. The story was interesting and the artwork was nice.

K.R.C.
