Just doing (another) list carry over. No idea when I read what  and still didn't get through them all anyway (Sometimes I hate lists)

Adding to what may end up being a looooong list of titles before I throw my hands up in disgust at myself

***********************************************************************

Geiger - Although the first issue hit a tad less than the other, newer John's penned titles, I still enjoyed this title. Reading the second issue right after the first did help, which means this would probably read better for me in trades, but then again, what doesn't? 

Redcoat - Just flat out fun. I am not a Hitch fan, but his work here didn't bother me too much, other than his three mile long torsos that he (and Eaglesham) draw 

Action - Great start to the Brainiac arc. Loved the last panel, seeing one of my favorite versions of a character was awesome!

X-Men - I think I am the only fan of Noto on the board, and I'm fine with that  (even though I cringe when I see his Spider-Man), but yes, I like the look of this book. I was sadly wrong about my (hope?) idea that Talon would be saved and placed in the new body, but I guess it will add to drama down the line between Sync and... the other one. That is until a writer, 5 years down the line, decides to bring THE Laura back

X-Men 31 - Art was terrible on this one. Interesting wrap up for the Talon arc though not sure if I like it much.

Wolverine: Madripoor Knights 1 - Fun start to this new story taking place in the past. This was one of my favorite eras in the X-Men when the team had been spread across the world and Wolverine was trying to find everyone.  This particular one takes place shortly after Uncanny X-Men 268.
