Let's see what's in this week's bag...


Blue Devil #6: Excellent Abbott & Costello take-off, although now I'm afraid
	       to heat up dins in the microwave.  The colouring job was 
	       interesting, and the art keeps getting better. I am, however,
	       waiting for that court case to happen.  Dan and Sharon's date
	       next issue ought to be 'interesting', also.
	       
TTNT	     : The NTTs meet the DNA...er Recombinants in this issue (Where
	       did 'Surge' go to?).  Jericho's characterisation is excellent,
	       and is getting better.  The wedding ought to keep things 
	       busy for the next few issues.  What would *you* suppose is
	       going on with Mr. Dayton?
		 
	       Some how the moral aspect of this issue just didn't sit right
	       with me.  Maybe because the 'DNAgent' types exist in another
	       continuum. The story also seemed a bit rushed, not a lot of
	       time in character development.  If someone read this who isn't
	       aware of the DNAgents, they might be *very* confused.
		 Then again, we peobably would see something like			      this at Marvel, it would take them too long for their lawyers to		     figure out.  I'm waiting for the latest DNAgents to come out,
	       so I can see the 'crossover' from their view.
	       
Kitty &
Wolverine #1: Wolverine doesn't even appear until the last few pages, folks.
	      Kitty may be a genius, but the kid has no common sense 
	      whatsoever.  Her characterisation here is a *lot* more flakey
	      than that we have seen in the X-Men, or New Mutants.  Okay,
	      I know she is upset, but if this was a battle situation, she
	      would have been a greasespot on the floor a long time ago.
	      Isn't that what Professor X has been trying to teach her all
	      along, that she has to keep her head in tight situations?
	      Oh well, maybe next month mwith Wolverene, maybe things will
	      get interesting.
	      
Alpha
Flight	    : OH NO!! more subplots!!! more mutants!!! Wolverene shows up!!!
	      I hope that Marinna isn't gone for good, just a few issues or
	      so. Judd/Puck has *got* to be one of the most interesting
	      characters extant.  'worked as an independent', eh? It appears
	      that there is a *lot* more in his background than we have 
	      already been given.
	      
	      
Wonder
Woman	    : Two Steve Trevors? Oh, $%($#%, the only reason I read this 
	      mag is the Huntress stories in the back. Now that the Huntress
	      is in both Infinity Inc., and a soon-to-be-released series,
	      I can dump WW.
	      
That's it for this week...
