The Day in Comics

Here are the comics I picked up today at the comics shop:

- Action Comics #870 - An excellent wrap-up to the Brainiac story, with a shocking and sad conclusion, well handled, that actually made the news reports today.

- Avengers/Invaders #5 - As much as I like the idea behind this book, and as much as I like Alex Ross' art, this story has been leaving me cold so far.

- The Goon #29 - Somehow this book has flown under my radar, but at the insistence of friends who love it, I'm giving it a shot.

- Green Lantern #35 - This has been one of DC's best books of late.

- Green Lantern Corps #29 - This has been a good companion book to GL.

- Inhumans: Secret Invasion #3 (of 4) - This one has been solid so far, as the Royal Family heads out on a rescue mission.

- Invincible Iron Man #6 - This has been very good so far, mostly due to the fact that it's a story about the film version of Tony Stark, rather than the Civil War version or the smarmy Ultimate Universe version.

- Trinity #19 - This one got very interesting a couple of issues back, but now it's deep in the alternate reality thing. Bleh.

- The Twelve #8 - A good, if dark, story is unfolding here. An excellent book.

- Alter Ego 81 - Which actually came out last week, but I missed it. An excellent magazine and an invaluable archive devoted to comics history.

That's it!
