I was on vacation as well. Sadly, not France, but I did swim in the ocean.
I will be pulling double duty and get last week's book with this week's haul.

Avengers - Fun, Fun, Fun. Pure and simple. Crazy 70's writing, but still has a pretty cool, and hate to say it again; cool story, made this a joy for me. Yeah, just wonderful stuff. Other than that inking problem  :-\

Rise and X-Men - Read them both, enjoyed Rise a tad more, but sadly, I think this has me less excited for the upcoming X stuff. I'm still going to get the two "main" titles (Uncanny and 'adjective-less") and will try Wolverine (more excited for the art, but hope I glom onto the writing) but think I am out on the others

Was only able to knock out one more last night. Starting slower than I did last week when I had so many has me a little worried about this week's list. Haha
;D

Also, as Avengers has me more in the mood for older books, I am going to try a big one. Big for me at least. Not only in scope (lots of issues) but also because it is Superman based (has never been a strong pull for me), and scarier still... the run started in the 90's (which is ALWAYS a frightful time for me to go). Luckily this starts in the early part of the 90's (1995 was when things got truly frightening I believe) and I do enjoy the art style of the first artist, so we will see how I fare. So yes, I'm starting the much beloved "Triangle Era" this week.
I hope
;D

Wolverine - It was as expected. Nothing terrible, but sadly nothing grand. I did enjoy the sign-off page by Percy though. Also enjoyed the art from the preview of the upcoming Wolverine series, but I knew already I would enjoy that... it is the upcoming writer on that series that troubles me. Hoping for the best however.
