So the new saga begins.
As mentioned last issue, our boy Wade is having some issues with a certain retired FBI agent who
wants him dead because she got caught in his line of fire when she was undercover.
So she goes so far as to resurrect T-Ray and Slayback. Talk about a party.We see they’re no match for a simulated Wade, and have a lot more training ahead of them.

Meanwhile Deadpool stumbles onto Taskmaster. After a good old fashioned, shoot first – talk later. We find out that Wade isn’t after Tasky because he sold him out, he needs a job.After a bit of talking Taskmaster ‘gives’ Wade some info.

This week in comics: What's New :

Lord of the Jungle #1

Writer : Arvid Nelson

Artist : Roberto Castro

Review : Anubhav Das Gupta

I thought I’d give some #1’s a try this week. So, here goes.

I love Tarzan. Everyone does. But only a few have actually read Edgar Rice Burroughs’ amazing novels. And these novels, they are very different from any of the movies or the TV shows. The comicbooks, however, were always pretty close to the source material.  And this one stays close too.

Lord of the Jungle, infact, stays very close to the book. It’s primarily a comicbook adaptation of the first chapter of the book. But is it a good adaptation? 

This week in comics : What's New

GREEN LANTERN  #5

Writer: Goeff Johns

Artist: Doug Mahnke

I would go ahead and call this the strongest issue of the current volume if this hadn’t involved a cliffhanger

 everyone knew the conclusion to last issue. So yes, rings made by Sinestro can’t attack him, which is why the new GL recruits in the form of the residents of Korugar can’t attack Sinestro. The issue follows the path you would have expected it to follow last issue, with Sinestro inducing moustache-twirling awesomeness to free his home planet with the help of Hal Jordan, only to subsequently have him sent off the planet nevertheless.

 The difference made is in the amazing work on character with both Sinestro and Hal, as well as some kick-ass artwork by the dependable Doug Mahnke (though I would still have preferred Ivan Reis on this title). The issue ends as you would expect any Geoff Johns GL story to end : with the Guardians hatching up a sinister plan.

Score : 8.2/10
