So they're racist AND homophobic. The two biggest Christian tenants.

What is this BLM propaganda? This is a filler issue with no relevance to Superheavy whatsoever. Throw it in the trash and move on.

As if it couldn't get any better, Gail goes all Grant Morrison on this issue! Nevermind the women in the refrigerator -- this book has me hooked like Red Sonja!
Clean Room #2
Its a battle of wills as Chloe faces off with self-help guru Astrid in the infamous Clean Roomand what Chloe witnesses there reinforces her desire to bring Astrid and her empire down. But what Chloe doesnt know is that the atrocities that happen in the Clean Room dont necessarily stay there.
Something happened between issue #1 and #2 that I cannot put my finger on. The writing is completely incoherent to the point of being Bendis-like. As much as I love Jason Aaron overall, he has laid a few eggs (Original Sin, Thor-post-Godkiller). With so many great comics available (none of them being Marvel save a few) I had to drop this. Maybe it will get better, but I doubt it.
Doctor Strange #2
• Take a tour of Doctor Strange's home-- the Sancto Sanctorum. It's the weirdest and most dangerous place in the Marvel Universe! A place where opening the wrong door can unleash hell on Earth.

I will continue to reject this book on its premise

This feels very forced somehow -- oh how I miss X-Force
All-New Wolverine #1
LAURA KINNEY EMBRACES HER DESTINY. HERE! COMES! WOLVERINE!

Although this is technically All-New Hawkeye #6, this continues to be the best comic Marvel produces by a very wide margin. As long as Lemire does not go the way of the Fraction, this will be on my pull list.
All-New Hawkeye #1

A deep-seated rift that stretches across time, brings old man Clint and a wiser Kate back together as they chase down mistakes from their past.

It's massive widescreen JUSTICE LEAGUE action and adventure from superstar writer/artist Bryan Hitch! In this extra-sized debut issue, the League comes up against an armada of aliens heading for Earth that claims to be a peaceful religious tribe. But something sinister is lurking in their ranks...something with ties to ancient Krypton!

Detective Rowan Black works robbery/homicide for the Portsmouth PD, but her greatest mystery is the truth about...
Not endearing as his previous works, but Allred is really the only artist that could visualize this zaney story. I am really looking forward to Mona Lisa being in a "protection program"!
Art Ops #1
In this new series by Shaun Simon, co-writer (with Gerard Way) of The True Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys, and legendary artist Michael Allred (iZOMBIE), art not only imitates life, it becomes it!

DOG must enlist the help of gamer, Eric Morn, to get to Ruin before he activates into a catastrophic rampage. Can the trio reconcile their differences in time to save our world?

The first issue brings you right into the action. It's a little disorienting, but I think that is the initial premise. Read #2 before you give up on this series. You won't be disappointed.
