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

Iron Man - Modok is one of thos characters that if I see him, and I am in the right mood, I love him. I loved him last issue, this issue he was just "fine". I will say however, that I initially was worried about the "idea" of this book's first arc, not that it was bad, but I didn't see it being something that I would enjoy. Wellllll... Okay, I'm in 

Punisher - It's fine, but I think the art is carrying most of the lifting for me. I Am not sure if I only like Garth Ennis' Punisher, or if I, once again, am not enamored with Percy's but, yeah, it's okay. I think it is going to have to hit a lot harder next issue or I may be gone after the "3 issue try" 

Ultimate End Game - Ugh, what the hell are you doing Camp? I know you can do better than this. Did editorial screw you up? I sure as hell hope so 

Deadman - This was not the Deadman I know, but... BUT, it is a pretty decent enough Ice Cream Man comic. Much like the last Superman comic by this team, although that read a lot better from the jump, if you just think of this as an I.C.M title, like a DC Earth 2 (Scoops ) it reads much better. So yeah, I agree with Jeff that it isn't the Deadman we know, but... I like that for this team. Looking forward to seeing what the team does here. 

JSA - Why oh why can't Jeff Lemire write a damn DC proper comic? I've literally never seen anything like it. I love his creator stuff, love it. Love the way the characters work, the way the deal with each other (or don't deal with each other), love the scripts, the plots, the dialog, but put that same man at DC and it's just not good. All that said I am pulling a Jeff here. Ha, got sucked into the last page of #20 so I will be back for at least one more issue. 

Gotham MF'ing Central - Absolutely... and as this is DC, I will say there is no Absolute pun implied ... but I'm absolutely loving this. It is "Criminal" but featuring cops instead of cons, with the occasional Batman family member appearance? Not sure why I waited so long to read (mostly for the first time) this series. I've read issue before but I came in late originally, and wasn't on the title for long. This is going to be a blast!!!
