Hitting the top of the list as a ‘MUST-READ’ once it’s paid for and rightfully yours, we have GREEN LANTERN # 52. Aspen Comics is making Serena happy as SOULFIRE # 3 hit the shelves today. And I get suckered by Mark Millar and picked up NEMESIS # 1, in which the cover says in bold white letters “MAKES KICK-ASS LOOK LIKE $#!T”. To my surprise Serena also picked up THE GUILD # 1. She’s only seen a few episodes of the web series. Now I’ve got a reason to buy the seasons on DVD. Hung out at Keith’s Komix for a bit before checking out just to catch up with the regulars. Discussions included: Theories on who is the Red Hulk, The Awesomeness of The X-files, Millennium, and Supernatural.

BLACKEST NIGHT’S penultimate chapter is here, and you do not want to miss this issue. Trust us on this one.

Pretty short description isn’t it? The cover pretty much says it all. BLACKEST NIGHT is coming to a close and it looks like this story will keep peaking until its end. Let’s just hope that BRIGHTEST DAY can do the same and deliver an amazing story worth investing in.

SERENA’S PICK OF THE WEEK: THE GUILD # 1

Writer: Felicia Day
Artist: Jim Rugg
Cover Artist: Dan Jackson, Georges Jeanty
Genre: Humor, Fantasy

Internet phenomenon The Guild comes to comics, courtesy of series creator, writer, and star Felicia Day (Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog)!

Chronicling the hilarious on-and offline lives of a group of Internet role-playing gamers, the Knights of Good, The Guild has become a cult hit and is the winner of numerous awards from SXSW, YouTube, Yahoo, and the Streamys. Now Day brings the wit and heart of the show to this three-issue miniseries. In this origin tale of the Knights of Good, we learn about Cyd’s life before joining the guild, how she became Codex, and how she began to meet the other players who would eventually become her teammates. This storyline fills in details never before revealed on the web show, making it a delightful new chapter for existing fans as well as a perfect jumping-on point for new fans!

HAPPY READING!
