Heartbreak Soup (Love & Rockets) 1 review Gilbert Hernandez
Fantagraphics Books, 2007
A Marquez in Comic Form
A surrealist, sometimes non-linear, story of generations of families in one small, Mexican town. I would say that it felt like I was reading something akin to Gabrieal Garcia Marquez's One Hundred Years of Solitude in comic form. I loved it.

Jack Kirby's Fourth World Omnibus, Vol. 1 27 reviews Jack Kirby
DC Comics, 2007
The First Appearance of Many Great Characters!!!!!!!!!!!!
+ Read Greatness Again!!! + A MUST BUY!!!!
Jack Kirby's Fourth World Omnibus is another Kirby hit!
Superman, Jimmy Olsen, Orion, Lightray, Mister Miracle, and Darkseid is just a fraction of the number of heroes and villians in this book.

Green Lantern Corps Vol. 1: To Be a Lantern 6 reviews Dave Gibbons
DC Comics, 2007
A Great Series
+ The Green Lantern Corps: One Year Later + refreshing
This is one of my Favorites series going on right now right up there with Fables. It brings into focus so many different characters it is next impossible to not find at least one that you like. And by pairing up Green Lanterns into groups of two you get a lot of ying-yang relationships such as Guy ...

All Star Superman, Vol. 1 37 reviews Grant Morrison
DC Comics, 2007
Complete, total perfection
+ Man of Steel + Superman at his best
Morrison has written some great comics - New X-Men, Doom Patrol, WE3, Animal Man, JLA, and the list goes on - but this might be the best thing he's ever created. He strips Superman down to the basics, blending Silver Age earnestness with wild, far-ranging science fiction and mythology, and in the ...

New Avengers Vol. 5: Civil War 12 reviews Brian Michael Bendis, Howard Chaykin, ...
Marvel Comics, 2007
New Avengers continues to be great
+ In Retrospect, Insightful and Pertinent + good but not great
Great stuff. Not for the uninitiated, but fans of New Avengers and Civil War should love this. The best of the Civil War tie-in books. Highlights are the Leinil Yu Cage issue and the Chaykin Captain America issue.
