  1. Pretty Deadly Trade Paperback Vol 1: I've read it twice now and I still have idea what the hell was going on. Interesting though. Might pick up the second volume.

    Lucifer #1: I loved the first series, what had a pretty definitive end point to it, with Lucifer giving up nearly all his power and going off to explore oblivion, pausing only to give his father the finger one last time for luck. Now we're back and so is he. It's definitely a continuation on from that because he has the scar Mazikeen gave him and no power. God appears to be dead and Lucifer is pissed because he wanted to do it. So now he wants to find out who got there before him. The only question would be; which god? The original, who gave up his position to a girl called Elaine (god 2.0), or Elaine herself? Judging by everyone's attitude, it seems to be the original. But why would that matter of he handed over responsibility and left reality with someone else in charge? Going to give this a couple of issues to see if they answer these questions.

    TDKIII: Ugh. All it did was remind me why I hated the second miniseries. And how much I loved the first.

    The Mighty Thor #2: AKA The All-Loki-All-The-Time issue. I think they're drawing him like Hiddleston. I plan to stick around because I want to see if everyone finds out Jane is Thor and that being Thor is killing her. Especially Odin.

    Speaking of being the Force sensitive one. How exactly is it that someone who up until that point had no idea that she was even remotely approaching being force sensitive, manage to:
    a) Block another, considerably more experienced force user - even if it was Emo Vader
    b) mind-manipulate a
    stormtrooper - something we've only seen Obi-Wan do
    c) manage to use a lightsaber well enough - or indeed at all - to beat Emo Vader. And I don't buy the excuse that he was bleeding out from Chewie's bow shooter. She'd never even seen one before finding it in the chest.

    For that matter, how the hell did Fin manage to use a lightsaber, when it was pretty much established very early on that he can only use a blaster?
