Okay, let's get started!
Deadpool #13, poor Bob... Also, pirates!
Titans #16, Starfire's fucked up. Go figure.
Blackest Night: Superman #1, ummm... What. The. FUCK? Did they just kill everyone in Smallville but Ma Kent?
Doktor Sleepless #13, the sex issue! The issue 1 script excerpt in the back matter was pretty awesome.
Batgirl #1, this could go several interesting places. Did Cassandra Cain ever stop acting like a nut, or was striping down and handing off her costume still pretty much par for the course with her?
X-Men: Legacy #227, the world needs more splash pages of Moonstone getting punched through tanks.
X-Factor #47, dark future, check. Apparently evil team mate, check. "Come join X-Factor... Fight the good fight... We're low key... No Giant Robots... Riiiight..."
Booster Gold #23 and Uncanny X-Men #514 have travelled back in time to last week`s post, to preserve the timeline. Not that I think it will help...

Comics!!!!
It's that time again, time to torment you with my taste in comics.
Adventure Comics #1, I think I love everything about this comic already. The art is beautiful. I'm a giant Conner Kent fan, I'm wearing a Superboy shirt as I type this. I'm happy to see his story continuing where it was cut off when he died. The Legion back story looks like it's going to be an interesting extension of the main story.
Red Robin #3, I'm glad I'm still picking up single issues of this. The story spins out of the end of Robin's 16 year run very well. The art feels a bit muddy, but suits the story.
Blackest Night: Batman #1, Deadman!
Blackest Night #2, It's just not a DC event without Pariah and a giant Spectre. My only question is, is Don Hall the only one who refused to come back?
Deadpool: Merc with a Mouth #2, could have been called "How to make HYDRA agents look intimidating".
Ultimate Comics Spider-Man #1, I've seen it said that the new Ultimate Comics line was supposed to shake up the Ultimate Comics quo and that the Spider-Man book didn't. I'm happy it didn't. I think Ultimate Spider-Man didn't need to be shaken up. I liked it the way it was, a new numbering is fine with me.
EDIT: Aug 20th
Uncanny X-Men #514, it moves the story along nicely. The next part should be good.
Booster Gold #23, Booster's dialog during the first scene with Raven made me laugh out loud on the train, it was too perfect . I really hope the mystery villain doesn't turn out to be who I think it is.
