Pick of the Week – Secret Warriors #26


Bookmark and Share

It’s a new week of comics and there’s a lot of thinking as far as what the pick of the week should be.  This week the honor goes to Secret Warriors #26Jonathan Hickman‘s run has been a slow epic and I have no idea what to expect as it wraps up.  It looks like there’s some ties to S.H.I.E.L.D. and I’m sure there’ll be some long running repercussions knowing Hickman’s writing.

  1. Secret Warriors #26 – See above.
  2. Flash #10 – Flashpoint is coming and it’s clear it all starts with this series.  I’ve been really digging it, it’s the first DC series I’m absolutely sucked into.
  3. “X” Books – Uncanny X-Force, Uncanny X-Men and X-Men: Legacy are all out this week and each are on a resurgence of late.  With Schism coming, 2011 is looking like a banner year for the “X” line.
  4. Iron Man 2.0 #3 – War Machine is back and has a feel to make it stand out from the regular Iron Man series.
  5. Battle Chasers Anthology – It’s expensive, but if you have a bit of nostalgia, it’s worth it.  I’ve read it and am a bit saddened the series remains unfinished, but this brought back some great memories.
