The Sydney Morning Herald makes a name appearance in one of the panels and that's pretty much it for spotting anything familiar. The Question's method of getting some bird to follow his trail is rather gruff, so very much in character and in keeping with the mystique that is the man with no face.

Worlds around the place do seem to present a feeling of loss, and of despair, a real void to feel the impact on the absence of the big players. Translating this doesn't quite melt enough.

The back up feature with Donna Troy in the star field suit sheds some light on the history of the DC. Just a brief glimpse, not quite all there, and the serving of an introduction is done with that.

Day of days will arrive on May 25. The release of X-Men 3: The Last Stand to close it all out and possibly shoot off with some splinters come good turn of money. Or it could be the new end of the first trilogy set. Who knows, the money knows.

Futurama Comics #25 where Bender, Fry and Leela going all Robin Hood on New New York's grass. Or something like that. There appears to be nothing more than a fuzzy cover out there and a not quite clear solicit read for the issue itself. Still, 25 already is impressive given that 22 remains unread.

Missing the first round of the fight, it was high time to reorder and grab Veronica #167. With Archie and Friends #100 featuring the second appearance of The Veronicas, why not go back and catch them in the act the first time around when it wasn't that far into the past? No reason not to.

Turns out that the reason for the Channel Nine chopper hovering over Liverpool late Saturday was thanks to a dead body.

Of sorts. Or something like that.

Forensic Police and the other cops were out on a residence in Macquarie Street toward the netball courts. Apparently there were a couple of wheelie bins with blue/white cop tape and a suspicious looking facade to the unit.

No idea if there really was a dead body though. Did hear reports of a medivac chopper landing on the netball courts. Dead or not, that stuff is for moving some condition of a body.

Cropping up all over the atlas are the locations of suspected mutants and the like. Brotherhood or the X-Men, the sides are obvious.

Another marketing tool in the promotion of X-Men 3: The Last Stand, (and where Fox continue to evade requests from the Comic Shop to aid their cause) X-Planet. Where mutants and all the various incarnations of the bipedal rulers of the food chain sign up and throw in their own registration.
Not quite the ease of mind the Mutant Registration Act has ever enjoyed, but still worthy for an inspection.

From the looks of things so far, the planet is lousy with mutants.

Great work from Hank McCoy working to have a comic book heroine by the na
e of Black Widow score a DVD.

Hank McCoy: Natasha Romanov - a sexy spy from Russia who's made an impact on the world of espionage for the forces of good against evil and still keeping an air of duplicity about her.

Mrs Henderson Presents, for those not in the know, is about a widow who takes a fancy to starting up a live nude revue in London during The War. Quaint, soft and warm, it's a nice little film.

May 18 and on this day, the dark con of The Da Vinci Code hits the screens. Be quick with the pain, the next week is when the X alumni return for another instalment.

Interesting for the take on it all, Haunt Of Horror Edgar Allan Poe #1. James Earl Jones on The Raven was good, but how this will work with the moody setting and the execution, that's the interesting part.

Smartly small and quick left jab from under the chin, Fell #5. Always great knowing that the comic in hand finishes out the story at the last page and yet is able to linger a little into a bit of the next.
