New Comic Wednesday: Holo-Awkward

Happy be-lated Thanksgiving, comic collectors! Did everyone catch the new Star Wars Trailer? Did anyone else think you were getting pranked in the first few seconds. I did. It's not racist... I just saw a meme before I watched the trailer. So I thought it was fake. Thankfully it wasn't. Anyone who hates the lightsaber needs to watch the Colbert Report. Also, the Millennium Falcon is as beautiful as ever. 

Time for another installment of CJ's fave comic hotties! That's a long title... anyway, if you don't know what that means it is the week with both Grayson and Legendary Star-Lord! Grayson has been doing his job as a spyral spy and we know that Grayson's face is basically altered, so no one can tell the former boy wonder and dark heir is alive. Convenient isn't it? I wonder if the bat family could even see him. Maybe I see that in Grayson's future? 
In this issue Grayson goes through the desert holding a baby. For days with limited food and water, Grayson carries a baby with an important body part the organization is after. But Grayson won't let them hurt the baby, will he? He will save the baby from the desert and spyral. The lady was wrong... Grayson is not just a man!
I want an explanation for the organs. Are organs transferable through birth? There are so many things I do not understand. Also, I can't wait till the annual comes out because I am dying to know who Helena is. 

Now, time for Star-Lord's date. Kinda... I think it's kind of awkward how Kitty is on a holo-date... she even wore skates even when she wasn't really skating... and how do you go to second base with a hologram? Weird. Anyway, I love the suit. I mean who doesn't... it's very Dumb and Dumber. But even with the efforts of Star-Lord trying to keep the Holo-date work free, but not awkward free, he still gets captured by the Slaughter Squad. Le sigh. Now, its Kitty to the rescue... my least favorite X-men. 
Now, who didn't see the identity of Mister Knife coming? I saw it. It's depressing really... when things seem obvious. 
Also out this week, Angela: Asgard's Assassin. Now, I will admit that I didn't read the last part of Original Sin: Thor and Loki, so I might be a little lost at first, but I'm sure I will catch up. Stay tuned for more stuff.

New Comic Wednesday: Team Robin is robin' my heart!

I don't know if I talked about this yet, but there was news running around my Facebook feed that Gotham might show the FLYING GRAYSONS! Though I wonder how old they would be... They would technically have to be a little older than Bruce? But after reading another article that explained there will be no Harley Quinn this season (because she will probably be the same age as Poison Ivy and actothing like the harley fans love) they explained that there will be a pre-natal Dick Grayson! Yay!
 

It seems every batman title is going up against a major villain! Everyone already knows that Darksied had to show eventually. Its his hellish world afterall. No one cares about Kalibak. Anyway, if anyone reads the previews book they pretty much revealed that Robin will live again, but with powers! This will be significant because he will be the first Robin with superpowers in Earth Prime! Crazy, I know. 
Anyway,  I like how they make Barbara look super useless in this comic. Like she isn't really there for a reason. That is just how it looks in this comic so far. No love for barbara I guess. They found Damien, but now they have to fight a big threat. Four people with no superpowers and one with a special suit. Oh, and a dog. Not counting cyborg because he currently became useless. 
My guess is in the next issue Robin somehow comes back to life and kicks some Darksied butt by himself. Just a thought. 
Also, out is Loki Agent of... Axis not Asgard #8! I don't have time to talk about it right now, but I will later~! 
Also, the next part of Multiversity is out! Pax Americana! Should be crazy like the rest I am sure.

Nightwing is back and ready to ...hypnotize you!?

This week the new DC title comes out: Grayson! And who else but the biggest Richard Grayson fanatic wants to have her first post on the newly unmasked and secretly alive hero.   
The Grayson hair fiasco is now over as stated in DC Women Kicking Ass and Bleeding cool. Yes they changed the cover for whatever reason, but now that the issue is out we know what Grayson still has beautiful dark locks in a combover (but I'm not gonna lie, I was gonna be mad if his hair was blonde- thank god, it's a wig).

I was skeptical about this comic at first only because I still love Kyle Higgins and want him as the writer, but I guess we can give Seely a shot. So far, he hasn't done bad with this first issue. Cause I'm definitely interested. Don't want to spoil it too much, but DC is finally doing something great with Grayson and giving him a major role (well Batman gave it to him in Forever Evil #7). If you read the last issue of Nightwing and Forever Evil you'll already know that this organization that Grayson is a part of is dangerous and knows identities of heroes such as the Bat Family. But what is Richard's role in it exactly? The last words I have though are, I wish I could use Hypnos to make Dick Grayson my best friend. Wink wink.

Also in stores this week is Spiderman 2099. Why Marvel is pushing more Spiderman books especially when the first round of 2099 series didn't really do so well, I don't know. I guess Marvel's Batman is Spiderman and Deadpool. Anyway, if you're lost on who this Spiderman 2099 is Lyla, his holographic assistant, is there to help you on the first page because a man from the year 2099 is in the year 2014... What?! I think it would be more of a shock if it was still the 90's. All I can say is: I still love how some comics have their cheesy side... Really Apartment 2099? Did he kill the occupant just for that apartment? Maybe... Sorry Afro for your child, really. Also... Bitches are scary when they want to be. Lastly, I wanted to mention that one of the funniest guys I know, Justin Jordan released his new comic through Image called Spread. Not for the faint hearted. Really. If you do not know Justin Jordan you will probably recognize the titles he has worked on like DC comic's Superboy (another favorite of mine) and Green Lantern New Guardians. I do not know how he keeps up with this work load. I'm barely writing my own book!
