I picked this up because of iFanboy - wow!  What a fun ride.  I laughed out loud at Osborne's question to the Dr. at the end.  Who knew the Eisner Award's were so ahead of the curve?

The point of view of the story arch was refreshing and the fact it starts out with an old dying cowboy that knew his doctor was going to become a hero is very neat.  Kind of like reborn - the Two Gun Kid knew what he had to do because he had done it already.  Nevertheless, the 616 in the World War II era just is begging for stories to be told in in.

I don't think Brubaker is going to leave Bucky "happy" for very long.  Love the use of the camera phone and emailing it to Clint right away.  Too bad he didn't tweet it.   Great issue

I never heard these words together before . . . " giant, putrid, hunk of foetid shit"  and I will have to find a way to work them into a conversation at work tomorrow.  And the movie does look like that.  I'm sure they are creative people, but don't understand what made the 1980s version so cool.  Larry Hama did all the heavy lifting back in the day, all you have ...

  Can we have some Vulcan mind-wipe our Star Wars prequel memories and have J.J. and Damon reshoot them?  Hell, give them Watchmen too.

I liked this film.  It was way more entertaining than the Watchmen, X3, Spider-man 3, et. al.   Was it the post 9/11 commentary of the Dark Knight - hell no.  It didn't have the effects, locations or acting to compete with that film, but it was still worth the 10 bucks for the entertainment.   Missed out on all the "origins" stuff when I was out of comics, ...

I have loved both UA series so far, but this issue felt unnecessary to the rest of the story.  Maybe it's because #4 may have been the best issue of any comic this year, but this issue seemed to miss a beat.    Pogo and Viet Cong vampires are cool, but I don't think they needed some of what they showed in this issue.  We'll find out next issue.  But this is a book tha...

 Haven't picked up this issue yet, but what I enjoy the most is that Captain Britain seems to be a hero and is almost proud or unashamed, depending on your perspective, about it.  When he threw Excalibur back  into the stone a few issues ago, it said a lot about the guy.  He is worthy, but doesn't need to have it to do his job.  The book is almost like a lighter versi...
