Comics from 18/07/2007 : part 5

Yeah, so much about daily. A few leftovers from last week :

The Spirit #8 : Cooke's art is as good as ever, but it's his writing that really shines here : a compelling done-in-one story continuing the arcs set-up in earlier issues. It's fun, it's smart, and returning guest star Silk Satin is still awesome. Excellent, and probably the best comic out last week.

Marvel Adventures Fantastic Four #26 : A cover version of the Galactus story, and quite a Good one at that. However, Van Lante's top notch script is a bit marred by the not-ready-for-prime-time art.

Giant-Size Marvel Adventures The Avengers #1 : Actually a normal-sized story with two reprints as back-ups. The main story is an old-fashioned time-traveling Kang story, but guest stars Agents of Atlas are tragically underused, and Kirk's art is uncharacteristically rushed and minimalistic. Meanwhile, the reprints of Namora and Venus's first appearances are of historic interest only. An Okay package, on the whole.


There was also that Black Knight oneshot, but I haven't even bothered reading it yet. Maybe this week.
