All-Flash #1; writer Mark Waid; art by Karl Kerschl, Ian Churchill, Manuel Garcia, Joe Bennett and Daniel Acuna
Toilet humour and jokes about the can are just so very much the chunky rolls floating in the pond after they drop the kids off at school. Yes, so very dry and droll that. Never the quick.
Who is is Wally West, back again to show all those others who is the fastest to the can in a split of the whiff.
The aftermath of THE FLASH: THE FASTEST MAN ALIVE #13. The Fastest Man Alive's world changes forever!
All Flash #1 from DC Comics
One name for the them, but not any more and it's a burger meal to
The Order. Matt Fraction and Barry Kitson play here in the fifty state initiative after the Civil War. Get up and take a bill to split in three fours.
Christos Gage and Mike Lilly go for the win in
Annihilation: Conquest - Quasar.
Scarface: Devil in Disguise got some bone with Joshua Jabcuga and Alberto Dose riding in the back seat and looking to knock down some more white and not-so right.
A very special Blossom and here's Paul Jenkins and Steve Lieber with
Thunderbolts: Desperate Measures. T-Bolt against T-Bolt and the fingers start flicking a coin to the bottle by the wall.
Eating a meat pie in the sun with a jab of tomato sauce under the skin and that's a lunch time meal. Play time now for
Super-Villain Team-Up/M.O.D.O.K’s 11 with Fred Van Lente and Francis Portella on the red stuff to watch.
Robert Kirkman and Jason Howard slam all kinds of furs and hair and pelts in
The Astounding Wolf-Man Director's Cut. Taking that from before for free and lining up with the stuffing for a juicy morsel on the dinner table. For those who enjoy eating wolf.
Simon Furman and Nigel Raynor take the killing machines from 800, 1000, past the X and into the lazy eights with
Terminator 2: Infinity
Jim Lawson and Bill Moulage pay no heedance for the four water with
Tales of Raphael: Bad Moon Rising. Cold enough and the shoulders shrink into the neck now. Where is the neck now?
Super fun unhappy time getting the knock back but still hitting the treadmill for the shoulders to slump.
Sidekick: Super Summer Sidekick Special with Paul Jenkins and Chris Moreno kicking about the line crew.
Peter Milligan and C.P. Smith squeeze the round ones twelve times in
The Programme. Cold war kids getting a little bit of the toasty-toasty in the tanning bed. And the timer goes ding with an easy bake for obliteration.
Lose all feeling in the shoulders with a cut mix of horror, fantasy and science fiction, and all names of artists in
Gene Simmons House of Horrors. Sean Taylor, Jon Alderink, Dwight L. MacPherson, Grant Bond, Tom Waltz, Estevez Polls, Chris Ryall, Steph Stamb, Leah Moore, John Reppion and Jeff Zorrow cooking in the pot made with the bones and tones of an old lady eating a candle made of redone battery acid.
Arvid Nelson and Matt Camp hunt the runts of a dystopic future in
Zero Killer. Six for the wall at home and a nice collection of their hides to show the what-for perry pip in metal slugs.
Transformers Timeslines Summer Special Just a question, do you know what happens when you lick cold metal in a chilly air?
Trade of the week
Eddie Edison works two jobs. One is to schlep pizzas about the place while the other is being a
Sidekick. There is pain, there is gain, there is much to the funny and sucker punch. Like a swift kick to the groin perhaps? With saucy mustard onions on the side? Yes.

Billy the Jigsaw puppet head knocker - NECA Toys
Days away from the end of the year and it'll all be over. A clean slate to start from on the tick over into 2007. New Year's resolutions to ready and possibly hold on to for a few weeks. Food to clear out and junk to dish out. Start with the vacuuming and bringing in the carpet fibres.
Down to the wire and there's nothing like what you saw from the previous months of this year to forewarn and help you for the adventures, mishaps and antics bound to happen next year.
Horror of horrors for those who choose to close their eyes, kiss the sky and walk in with a head down on the ground. Makes for a wall of thudding if not careful.
Buck up, things can only get a little bit different, if not better.

Timmy with wheelchair - South Park series 3 action figure - Mezco Toyz
Not unlike the chicken-legged
ED-209, stairs and steps are among the hardest terrain for a wheelchair to access. Wide gaps in bridges and walkways are just another.
With steps, the increase in appearance in ramps at least alleviates some of the pressures in being able to off-road and rail up the footings. Not so much with planks of wood and such gone away from a slack bridge or over walk. That there is best left for
people with whips and bodies that can withstand swinging into the side of a mountain or similar face.
Plus side in
owning a wheelchair is the fact that there will always be a seat. Be it on public transport, at the cinemas or
at a poetry slam. Even if the environs themselves prove not to be utterly accommodating in their own right.

Punisher: War Journal #1 - Written by Matt Fraction with art by Ariel Olivetti
Take the strain as there's nothing like the grimace of someone as you walk through that door and realise that, yes, it is engaged and they're on the way to drop another. Face of the nation atop the throne of the house taking its dues.
Grin and bear it like the lungs need to feel it.
Frank Castle is back in the Marvel Universe and unlike others who've tip-toed the line between anti and pro-registration, Frank is diving right into the Civil War starting in the all-new ongoing series Punisher War Journal #1. Frank's not likely to have second thoughts about his role: those who deserve punishment will pay... and the sentence is death.
First up on the list: Stilt-Man! Wilbur Day, more commonly known as Stilt-Man, might not be a heavy hitter, but it doesn't matter who you are, if you cross Frank Castle you're done for. Take note true believers, Frank isn't going soft just because he's back in the Marvel Universe; expect blood and lots of it.
Written by Matt Fraction with Young Guns: Reloaded artist Ariel Olivetti, Punisher War Journal ties directly into Civil War #5 and guarantees to change the tide of the war. What is Frank's plan? How will he affect this war? Only he knows and we're too scared to ask!
Punisher: War Journal #1 - Marvel Comics
Coming to a New Years that's yet to happen, IDW Publishing with
Angel: Auld Lang Syne. Scott Tipton and David Messina face with Angel and Spike to spot some old ghosts and faces that just won't die.
Split that DC bulls eye six ways with
Connor Hawke: Dragon's Blood. Chuck Dixon and Derec Donovan head off with Connor Hawke for what starts out to be a simple archery contest. And from there the solicit info jumps into the underwear drawer.
Certainly not the stuff for all ages, C.B. Cebulski and Sana Takeda takes on ninjas and vampires in
Drain. From Image Comics, it's a tale of centuries with a ninja vampire out for revenge.
For those who missed the first step in the adaptation of Laurell K. Hamilton's novels, and there were a few, Dabel Brothers are on the trail with
Anita Blake: Vampire Hunter - Guilty Pleasures. Twelve steps to the end and on the path to bringing in the rogue vampires, Stacie M. Ritchie and Brett Booth are on the case.
Katana blades, zombies, and a whole bunch of other refugees in
Zombies: Eclipse Of the Undead. El Torres, Yair Herrera with another IDW title that doesn't link well from their own site.
In a solicit that has way too many exclamation marks, Keith Giffen, J.M. DeMatteis and Julia Bax present lessons three in
Planetary Brigade Origins New School. Boom! Studios holding the session where things come and go in the span of a chuckle or two.
Names are dripping all over the
Red Menace from Wildstorm Comics. Six issues to hold names such as Jerry Ordway, Al Vey, Paul DeMeo, Danny Bilson and Adam Brody. That's right, two of the last three are connected to The O.C. It's 1953 and the fear of Communism with no cigars is rife in the USA. More red clothes!
IDW Publishing take a step back before the tick-tick-ticking of that clock that never comes or runs into a 1 in
24: Nightfall. J.K. Vaughn, Mark L. Haynes and Jean Diaz take it and do it in six. Like an old style clock. Real old-style, like one that never existed.
The Experts are here and they're from Near Mint Press. Kenn Minter and Clarence Pruitt look to tongue an indy loving purchase with a short order of misfits looking to earn some quick cash. You probably won't see this on the shelf too long, it's a strange one that orders this...

Scarface, Tony Montana - Al Pacino bobble head
Scarface all set with nice set of choppers
Tony Montana from Scarface imparts some sage advice: "What'd I try to tell you? In this country, you gotta make the money first. Then when you get the money, you get the power. Then when you get the power, then you get the women."
Simple power dynamics. Move up from one echelon to another and the results will open up more doors. For the socially conscious, all this stops dead behind teeth and a smile enough to make a crocodile eat a small child in halves.
Nice and pearly white, like a set of PKs or Juicy Fruits, a set of good healthy teeth goes a long way. More so than just as a good turn on the second hand market for pure enamel made dentures.
Nothing can hide the shine that comes from a broad smile flashing more than those men hanging in the park in trench coats.
"Say hello to my little friend"

Jonah Hex #1; written by Justin Gray and Jimmy Palmiotti; art by Luke Ross; cover by Frank Quitely
Westerns are hardly the era for people of such stunning beauty. Staggered more like it. And well over the falling down of a stair well a few times over for good measure. And then again dragged by the tail hairs of the horses.
Kind of harsh reality of the morning mirror enough to send some into breaking out with the justice.
The saga of Jonah Hex -- the mysterious bounty hunter and thinking man's killer -- returns to the DCU in an all-new series penned by Justin Gray & Jimmy Palmiotti (HAWKMAN) with amazing art by Luke Ross (GREEN LANTERN; Samurai) and a debut-issue cover by fan-favorite Frank Quitely (WE3, BITE CLUB)!
Saddle up and ride shotgun with the original bad man of the Wild West during an age of plunder, greed and lawlessness.
When a millionaire's only son is kidnapped, Hex is called on to track down and recover the boy. But a simple missing person case turns into a hunt for vengeance as Hex unleashes his special brand of justice on the unsuspecting culprits.
Westerns. The brand of justice that's personal. Not just this time, but all the time. And with an almighty fever about it that makes Sheriff Wydell of
The Devil's Rejects seem relatively tame in comparison.
