It's a tie between Moonknight #4 and the Wake #9 for me. Moonknight just keeps getting better and better. Shalvey's art and Belaires colours blew my mind, again. Every single issue of the Wake has been outstanding, this issue didn't let me down. SO pumped for the conclusion. Also really enjoyed Cyclops #2 and Miracleman #7. I also picked up the Black Canary and Zatanna Bloodspell hardcover, not finished it yet, but so far it's a really fun read.

Cyclops #2 was my book of the week.
I already loved Greg Rucka as a writer but after seeing what he can do with a character that i had absolutely no interest in i love him even more. This book is just so much fun!Who would've thought that putting Young Cyclops in a father-son space adventure comic book would be so great?I certainly didn't.

So I'm going to go with a tie as well. On a different note though, I'm pretty hesitant that snyder is going to wrap up the story with a perfect bow. I hope he does, but he isn't the strongest finisher and he has a lot to explain.

Swamp Thing #32: really enjoying Soule's run thus far, as he's done a great job expanding the swamp universe. Also Aquaman, nuff said.

In a rather slow week I think my favorite was Cyclops #2.

Moon Knight Excellent, continues to have a different theme every issue. Is this the start of a two-parter? Seems to end very abruptly. Although the storytelling is quite disjointed at times, I think this enhances the dreamlike feel of this issue and it works for me.
Black Widow The art is still beautiful, but this felt very disjointed to me and not in nearly such a good way as Moon Knight. I think I'll be taking a break from it and catch the second arc when it's on Marvel Unlimited.
Loki Unmissable again. Brilliant plot twists and dialogue throughout.
Magneto I started reading this purely because I'll give Cullen Bunn a chance on anything at the moment, and He's keeping me on board in style.
Nailbiter Developing very well, this is a really gripping book.
Five Ghosts The end of the second arc, with a lot of both action and back story. The art is as beautiful as usual and the handling of flashback scenes is particularly excellent.
Superior Foes The plot of this series keeps looping back on itself as repetitions with slight variations - and I mean that as a compliment since it describes the recidivist lifestyle of these petty superhuman crooks perfectly. And of course, plenty of laughs too. A great book!
Miracleman The end of the material originally published in Warrior and the start of that from Eclipse. The shift from Alan Davis to Chuck Austen is quite jarring, although the latter looks much better with the new colouring. Has it been re-inked too? A lot of plot background this issue for anyone reading it for the first time.

Loki Agent of Asgard is the very predictable choice for me again, but this book just continues to be so damn good. Also enjoyed Five Ghosts and Cyclops #2.

Nailbiter #2 and Cyclops #2 were excellent but the top spot has to go to Afterlife with Archie Vol. 1
