Dan Slott's final ASM issue was today...end of an error. Pretty pedestrian story told from the POV of a civilian. This is something a hundred stories have told before and they've been better. Slott should have left with Issue 800 if he wanted to end on a high note,. even though that issue had it's problems.
Renew Your Vows was much better...we also got confirmation the Clone Saga, Ben Reily, and MJ's miscarriage is canon to the timeline, making Annie officially Peter and MJ's second child.
Man of Steel is entertaining, but alas Bendis' problematic writing is starting to show, and he demonstrates lack of continuity once again by asserting Hal Jordan is the GL of Earth's sector of space when that's the job of Simon and Jess.
Slott's first issue of Iron Man was decent...very Power Rangery and cartoonish. Use of classic villains like Fing Fang Foom and The Controller. No sign of Mary Jane in the cast at all.

Is it so much Bendis's problem with continuity regarding who GL of Earth is. I mean Scott Snyder straight up ignored poor Simon & Jessica in favor for Hal in his Metal stuff despite the fact they were in the League at that point.

So read Tony Stark: Iron Man & honestly? This has probably been the most enjoyable experience I had with an intro arc for Iron Man in years. It's seems as if Slott is basing his material primarily on the 80's era of Iron Man with making the focus more on Iron Man representing a company than just Tony (Hell he's even back to having a mustache than just looking like RDJ). Also it's just great seeing some actual Iron man villains again after what? 6 years of nothing? Also just happy to see Jocasta up & about too. Looking forward to how all this plays out & see if we finally have a consistent Iron man story that'll last more than a year.

I've read the 275th issue of Sonic The Comic (the unofficially official fan continuation), aside from finally settling the storylines of the last five years or so, it also gave us a flash forward story called "Exit: Sonic" from one of the original Fleetway writers Nigel Kitching, which reveals that Sonic ends being a godfather to Amy's child Johny (named after Johnny Litefoot the rabbit, who was killed near the end of the original comic), but Jonny has two mommies as Amy is actually raising him with her best friend Tekno the Canary. Amy is never outright stated as being gay so it's ambiguous.

So Rogal Zarr has planeted a bomb at the Earth's core and Jon is the one who decided to go with Jor-El. Lois does'nt want him to go, and Clark is undecided...I've a feeling he lets Jon go, Lois gets mad at him and there's the new drama in their marriage.
