AMERICAN VAMPIRE #24: I can’t tell you how happy I am to see Skinner Sweet alive and well. And as far as protagonists go, they don’t come more intense than Travis. He is pretty fucking serious about putting Sweet down. Just look at the scenes of him in the asylum, and how he gets out. Not to mention that, after Sweet pounded seven shades of shit out of Travis, Travis is still eager and willing to continue fighting, almost beyond the point of common sense. I’m so glad I didn’t give up on this series after Sweet “died.” I just hope Scott Snyder has a good excuse for taking back his death.
THE TRANSFORMERS: ROBOTS IN DISGUISE #2: Have I told you about how much I fucking love this new direction TF is taking? Yeah, okay, I don’t mean to go overboard, but I’m constantly getting a hard-on for this book. This time, Bumblebee is sooooooo paranoid about being assassinated by the Decepticons that he preemptively takes out Starscream the ONE AND ONLY TIME Starscream has ever told the truth to an Autobot. Well, the thing is, Ratbat is indeed planning to have Bumblebee killed, but now that Starscream has talked . . . well, read the book and find out. And why would Starscream sell Ratbat out like that? Hm, do you know Starscream?! Here’s a hint to his powermongering abilities: in this issue, he joins the Autobots. How fucked up is that?
