Most Wanted sucked, but the current arc is fairly awesome.
I want an omnibus of Gillen's Thor!

Pasqual Ferry made Adam Strange cool looking for the first time in...well...ever. For that I will follow his work anywhere.

I hope it's good. Not a huge Ferry fan, so I might wait for the reviews.

Was that the Diggle mini? I've been thinking of picking that up but i heard the story isn't resolved or it builds up to another story that's never been done or something?

it IS resolved, it DOES lead into Infinite Crisis (via Rann-Thanagar War), and it doesn't matter, b/c it is fantastic. pick it up.

This ^
It does set up another story at the very end but the main story the book is telling is resolved within it's pages.

Fraction wrote Thor: Ages of Thunder, which is among my favorite comic books ever, I'm confident he gets Thor (unlike the X-Men).
And Pasqual Ferry is among my favorite Spaniards ever, his art is so beautifull.
Will pick this up.

Like the others said it's pretty self-contained. It was one of the first DC stories I read and it's tied to DC cosmic stuff but in a way where you the reader need to know everything in advance.

I love Ferry's gratuitous glowiness, especially on something like Thor. I think I might read God War tomorrow. Man was that ever good.
Something that everyone should know: There is no objective good and very little objective bad in entertainment media. Of the objective bad, much of it is unintentionally hilarious which gives it entertainment value for some people. If you understood this then 99% of your petty arguments would never happen. Learn to realize that you have different tastes then the guy you are arguing with and move on. And before someone calls me a hypocrite, notice that I never go in calling something bad. I always go in to defend something.
