Este comic lo seleccioné basándome solamente en la portada. Entiendo que utilicen múltiples inyecciones, un bisturí y hasta un cuchillo casi de carnicero. Pero el detalle de la motosierra está buenísimo! La descripción de la historia me recuerda a las películas de lethal weapon, donde no faltaba nunca la escena de tortura del personaje de Mel Gibson (Riggs).

WOLVERINE: THE BEST THERE IS #4
Written by Charlie Huston
Penciled by Juan Jose Ryp
Cover by Bryan Hitch
It’s been a long night for Logan. Tortured by a sadist with three-thousand years experience in the art, his life force consumed and his soul flayed, it’s all enough to make Wolverine kind of, well, grumpy. But the worst is yet to come…as Logan discovers Contagion’s master plan. It’s a doozy and it will change the way you look at Wolverine.

Otra portada rara. Esta es de la serie que comenzó su publicación utilizando una cuenta regresiva desde el 899 (el 900 fue un paquín de aniversario en el 2009). Deadpool vs Galactus! Ni los geekos habían pensado en este vergsus. Lástima que esta serie se cancela con este número (que conste que no la estaba leyendo, así que carguen a otro con este muerto).

The country is in the middle of an economic meltdown and everyone is feeling the burn, especially your favorite Merc with a Mouth. Deadpool realizes that there’s no government bailout for super-powered mercenaries and when clients stop paying up, he’s forced to do the unthinkable… Look for a job. Luckily, Galactus has a position open in the Herald department. Don’t miss the face-melting final issue of the series that shook the comic book world to it’s very core.

Aquí inicia un mini evento entre los títulos mutantes. Recuerda a la era de apocalypse, pero sin el cambio drástico de modificar los nombres de cada serie. Lástima que la portada no dice mucho. Las siluetas parecen ser de hulk (verde o rojo), spider woman, ironman y … quiénes serán los otros dos?

AGE OF X UNIVERSE #1 (of 2)
Written by SIMON SPURRIER
Penciled by KHOI PHAM
Cover by SIMONE BIANCHI
And there came an Age Of X, an age unlike any other, where there were no X-Men…mutants were hated and feared. In that age, the remaining mutants created a stronghold, a last bastion for their dying race: Fortress X. And in that Age Of X, when humanity vowed to see Fortress X destroyed, a team of heroes and heroines found themselves united against this terrible mutant threat. This is their epoch!

Esta mini serie suena interesante. En este caso parece un elseworlds, donde toman a 5 héroes, los ‘recrean’ y los ubican en Japón feudal. Y seleccionamos la portada de psylocke para ilustrar el post.
