ULTIMATES #20 - Vision vs Nick Fury! Good issue!

Legion of Super-Heroes #31 - A nice tribute story from the past. I do miss some of those passed away legionaries and the simpler stories of yesteryear.  Ironically, this "tribute" to the past is now 40 years old!

WONDER WOMAN #26-28 - I have to give Tom King some credit.  It takes a lot of talent to take a villain named Mouse Man and make him terrifying.  The man in this story is just that. Terrifying and more.  But I still can't get past that ridiculous name... Mouse man.  😁

I know the wife is taking another couple days off this week (only two this time, I think) and when she does that, my desire to make time to read comics plummets.

I'm also very tired of looking at incomplete lists, so I'm cutting down until I get back on track  :P

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

Ultimates - A very cool issue except... and I say this as a fan of his (though I certainly understand why most people are not a fan... and honestly I have no idea why his stuff usually appeals to my eye as it usually has everything I don't like in comics) but Phil Noto's art looked especially rushed this issue. Like he had four days to complete the entire thing and just sped through the entire issue. I'm used to his... minimalist approach when pumping out issues, but this was a very bad look.
