Counterside Noise

Cowboys and spiders and lots of smashing glass

Staff picks

Last week saw those pirates from them Caribbean seas return for some hi jinks in the high waters. Next week will be Uma Thurman and Luke Wilson in a tepid film about a super woman. This week, for July 13, nothing much. Anything? Can't recall.

Any way, it's the end of a line with Spider-Girl #100. From the humble jump start of that What If...? issue and so many comics and years later, it's time to say good bye. And at whopping 104, it's going to be a bang. All good solid and shot single stories for the entire run. None of this lolly-gagging with nothing inbetween business.

Can't say the same for Ultimate Spider-Man #97. Which, if previous issues are any indication, will be only a fraction of a story to tide over until the "record breaking" land mark issue later this year. Like as if it really counts if the guts aren't quite like the fish smells.

Of course, the fine line is crossed and pistol whipped in Shaolin Cowboy #6. It's crazy, it's hyper detailed, it holds its own. It loses a lot of water. It keeps on with the nutsoids and the pages smell really good.

Counterside Noise shoots trash talk, staff picks and anything else comics related and not so from the loins of the Comic Shop in Liverpool.

A place to pick up busts, statues, Simpsons toys, Transformers, T-shirts, action figures and anime as well as a place to find some storage and collecting needs.

Don't get ahead of yourself or you'll forget about the comics.

Speaking of which, wonder what's coming in this week?
