Books of the Week - 080818

1. Quicksilver: No Surrender #4 (Marvel)
Writer: Saladin Ahmed / Art: Eric Nguyen / Colors: Rico Renzi
Great series! The penultimate book hits all the right notes and shows a side of Pietro we rarely see as well as one we see all too often. Looking forward to the conclusion next month.

2. Fantastic Four #1 (Marvel)
Writer: Dan Slott / Art: Sara Pichelli, Simone Bianchi & Skottie Young with Elizabetta D’Amico / Colors: Marte Gracia, Simone Bianchi, Marco Russo & Jeremy Treece
Sure it has its flaws (the publishing schedule being the biggest), but the main story delivers all the feels, with just the right amount of cheese. I could have done without the Doom story though. Hopefully that won’t continue. Skottie Young rules!

3. Daredevil #606 (Marvel)
Writer: Charles Soule / Art: Phil Noto / Colors: Phil Noto
Solid read that continues to build on the tense, gritty storytelling that kicked off with the Mayor Fisk storyline back in DD #595

4. Domino #5 (Marvel)
Writer: Gail Simone / Art: Michael Shelfer & David Baldeon / Colors: Jesus Aburtov
Entertaining read. Spot on dialog. Guest artist Michael Shelfer (filling in for the excellent David Baldeon) does a fine job.
