The Last Stop - My local shop has some very manga-esque comics that a local high school comic book club put together. They originally released them as a "Jump" style anthology for like $2 a pop, and now normal sized single issues for $5 each. They're amateur of course, but the graphic design and art and general presentation is all surprisingly solid. The one I got was about a girl who wakes up on a train, and doesn't remember where it's going, and can't get off; turns out it's the train everyone takes when they sleep (to get from "today" to "tomorrow"), but she's doesn't have "tomorrow," and the conductor stays with her until the last stop.
It's like 10 pages and very ham-fisted but I don't regret grabbing it. Proceeds go directly to the kids, too, which is nice.
Batman #74 - Did not expect "that one fucked up storybook" to make a reappearance, but it worked here. Good story, good art, liked the cliffhanger ending and I'm looking forward to #75.
Wonder Twins #6 - I was wondering how Russell was going to talk his way out of the "wait a minute this plan sounds like a great idea" problem, and I was refreshingly surprised that he just didn't! Yeah, Scrambler and Polly make some great points and while you can't really stay on their side because of the obvious fallout (and the very clearly telegraphed "the worst people in the world will still manage to wiggle their way out of it" bit with Lex), you can't blame them either. I think Wonder Twins in general is a great case for why preventative heroism is just a band-aid on structural problems. Glad we're getting another six issues!
War of the Realms Omega - You know, "Omega" issues are always a waste of time but I still read them anyways. I did like the framing device with Daredevil and Heimdall, and it's nice owning the "first appearance" for Jane Valkyrie, but completely skippable otherwise.
Thor #15 - Now this was good! Thor charting a course forward, Odin showing a bit of character development to an appropriate degree, and the final fate of Malekith... which I really loved. Was worried they were going to go TOO dark with it, but nope, I should have known it would be something like that.
Invisible Woman #1 - I love Sue so I had to pick this up... and while I do like the premise, the art and general vibe didn't click with me. Will probably wait for the trade.
Immortal Hulk #20 - I'm a week late here but, you know, holy shit, wow, Immortal Hulk is crazy, you know. In particular I found the brief scene in "Hell" to be incredibly interesting, lore-wise, and deeply unnerving.
