Best Bang Reborn #3: July 4th & June 25th, 2008

This week is a mash-up in this week’s Best Bang to include last week’s Canada Day books! From Warren Ellis pissing me off on Astonishing X-Men to Batman R.I.P to Angel making me shake my head, we have lots here. Included is last weeks Final Cri$i$ making me realize that I hate it when people try to show me how smart they are in comics, The (red) Hulk mystery continues and Mark Millar’s Fantastic Four keeps frustrating me. Since I have not gone to the island of Vancouver lately, these books come to you from Port Moody’s Hourglass Comics.

Oh and Happy Independence Day yeah bunch of colonists down south! :P

Best Bang for April 2nd

Best Bang for April 2nd

Welcome to another Best Bang. This time not written by a Skrull hacker but by yours truly. I am pretty bummed out that the Vancouver Canucks could not get into the playoffs for this year. So yeah, here are my Best Bang for the week of April 2nd. Given that Xander “Call Me Nick Fury” becomes Dracula’s manservant again (in the latest issue of Buffy) is why I am using his head as ranking. As always from top to bottom.

This weeks books are from Port Moody’s own Hourglass Comics.

Best Bang for March 5th!

Another week of Best Bang for comics that came out on March 5th! Scalped #15, The Twelve #3, Buffy #12 and Terry Moore’s Echo #1 are the best books for the week! Since Cable #1 was worse than Countdown (gawds knows how that is possible), I am using Nathan’s head for ranking, as always from Best to Worst. All books reviewed were bought at Hourglass Comics out in Port Moody of British Columbia, Canada!

Best Bang for Feb 20th!

Best Bang for Feb 20th!

Hey all. Yes this weeks Best Bang is very late as I took the weekend off and went to enjoy family and a wedding. So the best books for this week are the likes of The Umbrella Academy #6, Angel #4 and The Mighty Avengers #9. Due to the blah of this weeks Red Hulk, I thought its head (in a top hat no less!) would make for good rankings, as always from top to bottom.

The Boys movie coming soon?

The Boys movie coming soon?

Well Columbia Pictures has picked up The Boys to be made into a movie. I am torn on this as The Boys is a great comic but could come out like a really bad movie. More here:

Best Bang for Feb 6th!

My apologizes for the delay on this weeks Best Bang fer yer comic buck. Feeling very icky, cold and burnt out today. I think its the weather. Before I begin too far down the comic road I want to mention this…

I am glad to hear that Richard Zednik is doing better. Anyone who watched hockey would have known about this - Richard Zednik got his throat cut open last night in an accident with a hockey skate. Luckily he made it to the bench in time to get immediate help. You can read more about that here:

Alright then, this weeks comics are ranked top to bottom with the lovely head of dear Starlight from The Boys.

Also this weeks comics come to you from Hourglass Comics in Port Moody, British Columbia, Canada!
