I would say I'm sorry for picking a book last week that is now the most unpopular pick in the Review Group's history, but it made for an awesome thread so I'll instead say you're welcome.

Jonah Hex #50
as selected by young neil[/center]
Written by Jimmy Palmiotti and Justin Gray
Art by Darwyn Cooke

Darwyn Cooke illustrates a double-sized anniversary issue as we hit #50! Jonah Hex discovers a secret being kept by Tallulah Black that could change everything Hex is about. But happiness has no place in the life of Jonah Hex, so what kind of tragedy awaits our disfigured gunslinger?

DC Universe | 48pg. | Color | $3.99 US

Invincible Iron Man #21
as selected by Old Man[/center]
WRITER: Matt Fraction
PENCILS: Salvador Larroca

THE STORY: Tony's closest friends and lovers have gathered to try and help the man rebuild his shattered consciousness, body, life and legacy...but when Tony gets the call, does he WANT to come back? CAN he...even with Dr. Strange, Master of the Mystic Arts, bridging the gap between the two worlds? And you didn't think the bad guys were going to just sit back and let Tony rest and recuperate, did you? Rated A …$2.99


If you would like to join the group it's easy. Just post a review and I'll add you to the member's list. As long as you stay active, eventually it will be your turn to make a pick.

With $4 comics becoming the norm, the economy being what it is and the growing popularity of mail order services the Review Group recognizes that it's becoming harder and harder to commit to participating each and every week. As long as you can post one review per calendar month you will stay in the member's list. It doesn't matter if you post your review the week of it's release or if you post it later. Going forward, there is no such thing as a "late" review.

The only request I make with the new format is that if you don't plan on posting a review or if you're going to be posting late is that you drop a note in the thread so that I can keep track of who is active and who isn't. The Spreadsheet of Doom is thorough, but it can't read your mind.


Comics are to be scored on a scale from 1-10. 1 being suck, 10 being a damn good comic. Beyond that, there's no right or wrong.


If it's your week, you must announce your selection by 5pm EST the day Diamond releases it's shipping list. If you do not announce your pick at that time, I will add a poll to the thread that will remain open until 12pm EST so that the group can make the selection for that week. (If you're seriously MIA, I'll probably put the poll up sooner) To ensure that you know it's your week, I will PM you when Midtown's list goes live on Thursdays.

I know absolutely nothing about Jonah hex so I hope this book doesn't require too much background

You're so proud of that, aren't you?

granted it's been about 3 or so years since I read an issue of hex but it's fair to say the only thing you need to know is he's a disfigured gunslinger.

[******]

You're so proud of that, aren't you?

Pretty much.

I am disappointed though that it appears that it's going to fall just short of besting Yoni's Ultimates 3 record (523) for most posts in a thread.

Needed more of The Dozens, I guess.

I went ahead and mycomicshop'd Jonah Hex so that I could avoid playing LCS roulette this week (Atomic Comics OKC RIP ). Hopefully I'll have this by Monday.

That's too bad about Atomic Comics.

My nearest LCS is actually running a sale on everything this month even new books, so I won't be going to the hipster shop--hope they have this (and Supergod!).

Darwyn Cooke's art gives me a boner.

well now the book is ruined for me, thanks. Punchy finding new ways to spoil comics for the rest of us, every day!

The worst thing is, it's probably true.

And masturbation. Masturbation is also now ruined.

Did I kill the thread?

I don't really get a boner! It was hyperbole! Come back!

No, the thought of your pea snap erect in defiance of gods will is enough to drive everyone away, even the queahs.
