Seaworld of crack heads and mutilants

Staff picks

Near to the point of toppling over, the last haul of comics should see hardly any reason to pick something new up. But, as always, there is ever the glint lining the new shipping crying out for some eyeball lovin' on March 10.

Crack heads, self-mutilation and killing sprees get a mention in the Armor X #1 write up on the Across the Pond site. Sounds intriguing enough. Not overtly crash hot on reading another "guy in a suit" comic, but if the rest holds, it could be a goer.

Spider-Girl #84 sees May Day in a fight against Venom. Might pick it up. It's an easy series to just jump in on every now and then. Short stories done mostly within a comic while still holding a few threads for issues later on. Previous tests were good, so it's hopeful.

A god killing gods sounds like the premise for Atomika #1 out of Speakeasy Comics. The cover image is nothing if not rippling with muscles. Most likely a tentative pick.

Having read the first two Stan Lee's Riftworld novels, Stan Lee's Alexa is remarkably similarly intoned. Real life superheroes with comics under license and the celebrity of it all. Sounds a bit like listening to Vince McMahon deliver the intros on that History of Wrestlemania DVD.

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?
