They Avengered it out of me!

Left to Right
Black Widow, Mockingbird, Spider-Woman
Hawkeye 9 was pretty good, continuing the events from the last issue the tree ex-lovers of Clint Barton, Black Widow, Mockingbird, and Spider-Woman all go about finding Hawkguy and finishing what seems to be an awful Valentine's day for him. Good old Kate, with her Lolita movie poster on her bedroom wall is confronted by the trio. It's at this point that it may seem that Matt Fraction wants us to believe Kate and Clint might have a thing. Even if it's one-sided. Considering her a fourth in the "affairs" of Hawkeye. Mockingbird and Hawkeye's marriage is finally put out to sea, as he finalizes the divorce papers, and some bro's get beaten up. Then some guy comes up and shoots a fan-favorite of the book in the head, Oh no... Oh da.

Why is Bruce Wayne pointing a gun at Jim Gordon on the cover of Batman 19? Better yet, why is he robbing a bank. Oh it's Clayface. That's dumb. I was hoping it was Hush, or Bruce finally lost his marbles after Damian's recent death. Nope just Clayface, and he's "evolved". Seriously this book is starting to go down the pooper. It was really good, and one of the best at the start of the whole New 52, but it seems like Snyder has gotten lazy with his recent acclaim and is pumping out slop monthly with the title. That slop just happens to look like Clayface, sigh...

Poink!
I like how Bendis is essentially writing a weekly X-men books even if it has two titles. After the events in All New X-men where Cyclops comes to the Jean Grey school, and offers the students an alternative. We see that the Stepford Cuckoo's are a dominant telepath over Emma now, and Cyclops gets Goldballed. Also past Angel joins present-time's Cyclop's team. Where does the story go from now? Magik is having troubles controlling her powers now, just like Cyke and Emma.

More stuff to come this weekend. Hope you enjoyed this. Also, Apple is dumb, and stupid.
