*Look at me with my US formatted date...
Men of Wrath #3 Aaron and Garney, Southern hitman and family drama. Still worth reading at this point, but doesn't click for me in the way that Southern Bastards does.
Uber #20 Catching up with the Germans and the Russians, we finally see what Maria has been becoming. Continues to be gripping and much less of a gore-fest now it has moved away from the battlefields.
Secret Six #1 I was a big fan of the pre nu52 Secret Six, so curious to see how this goes. So far so good, an intriguing set up and I loved the art.
Nailbiter #8 Back to the main plot after the Bendis derail. This seems to be losing its focus a bit, but I'm still along for the ride. The bees?
Tooth & Claw #2 Surprisingly violent for a Busiek book - although the title of the series should be a clue I guess... Continues to build an interesting world.

low #5 I really considered bailing on this series after 2 issues...Man I'm glad I didn't. I'm used to Remender putting his characters through the meat grinder, it's one of the reason I like his stories, but damn Rick, give the girl a break...we get it Stel is a badass. Tocchini's art on the cover of #1 was the first thing to draw me to this book and it continues to impress in his interiors.

I almost gave up on the series after the #1, actually, and i'm really glad I didn't. Tocchini is a revelation, and it makes Book of The Week for me, as well, along with Tooth & Claw #2, which was of outstanding caliber.

Tooth and Claw #2 was terrific!!! I *knew* what being was going to be the Champion when they all were laying claim to him being THEIR race. Issue of the week for me.
Men of Wrath is BRUTAL. I loved it, though.
Woods #8 was good. It finally explained some stuff and set a bunch of players in the right spots for the coming arc.
Grayson #5 was a FIND. Highly recommend it. You don't need to know anything else about the series to enjoy it.
Chew #45's last two pages killed me. Is anyone else still on this series???
Angela #1 was terrific!! Two stories in one, lots of depth with the art, lots of intrigue and really setting up a stellar story. Work of art, one of my issues of the week.
Inhuman #9 - integrated AXIS very well
Birthright #3 - fun, excited to see where this goes
