Hi there! Today we have some changes in the format of this section. As you will probably have noticed by now, this section will be totally in English! Yes, I know I am quite crazy, but I wanted to give it a try. As not many people read the recomendations, I have decided that, in order to not waste my time, to use it as an exercise and try to write in a foreign language. Maybe some of you will be bothered, either by my poor English or because you prefered to read it on Spanish... we will see how things go, and maybe I will go back to the old format ;)
Nevertheless the contents will be the same, and yes you will have your comics in time as always. :)
Thats all for the intro, let's start with the all new, all mighty Wednesday Comics!!!
In DC, we have some brand-new series, well not at all... Okay, it is Astro City, the comic by Kurt Busiek and Brent Eric Anderson, with the extraordinary covers of Alex Ross. The series is a classic (which i have in the "to read" stack) and is returning to save DC of the poor selling numbers, at least it comes by the hand of its original authors so we may see many good comics under this header. I will absolutely gitve it a try.
Looking at the rest, Earth 2 is one of the best New 52 comics, that is fact, however it seems that Didio does not like those so Robinson will leave the series in a few numbers. We sure will miss him!
Also Green Arrow is doing pretty well as you can expect of having Jeff Lemire as writer.
Oh! I nearly forgot, this month starts the relunch of the Green Lantern franchise, with new creative teams. Geoff Johns is gone, will this new teams make us forget him? We will see.
Now, hands on Marvel. first Age of Ultron is nearly to end (at last!!), one of the worst comics that Bendis have written in my opinion, maybe he can do a nice save at the end, I doubt it.
Talking about Bendis and miniseries... Daredevil End of Days finishes today!!! It's been long since it started, I didn't like it a lot but it is infinitely better than Age of Utron... But, wait! We haven't rid off Daredevil's miniseries, a new one starts: Daredevil Dark Nights, by Lee Weeks. Welcome!
And among the rest of new comics we have pretty good choices, I personally will enjoy Avengers and Thanos Rising, Hickman and Aaron are one of my favourite writers in Marvel right now, and they have reached this position making merits everyday, give them a try!
Changing the subject completely, Kick Ass returns. Damn you Mark Millar! Kick Ass 2 was completely unnecesary and lacked of the oginarility of the first series, Kick Ass 3 will be better? I wouldn't bet on it... But if you are a fan, or just feeling morbid, here you have it!
And last but not least, Image has pretty good new comics out this week. East of West and Ten Grand had a very good beginning and they deserve the effort of reading them. East of West is a very "Hickman" comic and its artwork is amazing. Ten Grand is going to be the substitute of Hellblazer, a series of similar characteristics and, I think, a bright future. Both are save bids!
Thats all! As I always say: Take whatever you want!!*
