This Week In Comics: Now I'm Broke.

You know how last week I was complaining about how Marvel didn't release a single comic book I read? Well, this past week they made up for it in a big, bad, and expensive way. I think I ended up buying 8 different books. It was kind of an overload.

New Avengers was kind of interesting, though it did not, in fact, feature a single panel with any one of the New Avengers in it.

Punisher War Journal joined the list of comic books really didn't need to be World War Hulk crossovers. The end of last issue left me hopeful that Punisher would once again face Jigsaw and instead he's rescuing cats. On a side note, Jigsaw did appear in the Avengerless New Avengers.

The new issue of Spider-Man's "One More Day" arc came out. It suggests that Time Travel will retcon the past. Really? Is that the best idea you guys could come up with? Time Travel?

The big winner this week was New Avengers/Transformers, potentially the most unlikely crossover ever. Issue 4 brought the conclusion of the series, and while it was rediculous and kind of bad, it was a fun read. It was, during its short run, the Snakes on a Plane of comics (except i think there was a SoaP comic book).

But all in all, a lot to read, and that means I had to go the week without food. YAY!
