Jan 29, 2009 The Weekly Pile
This week’s pile of 5 comics were entertaining from top to bottom. A couple of issues surprised me by regaining my attention after it had started to wain with previous issues while another book continued its stellar run with its latest offering. I can’t remember the last time I enjoyed a pile of comics as much as I did with this week’s releases.

Favourite 5 #3: Wildstorm Series
Jan 28, 2009 Favourite 5
I have decided to list my 5 favourite Wildstorm series for today’s entry. Wildstorm universe comics have always been favourites of mine because of the way they toe the line between being standard DC universe books and Vertigo universe books with their content. Anything goes when it comes to Wildstorm and I appreciate the wide range of creations they have in their catalog. As with most all things, there have definitely been misses along the way for this DC imprint, but that is not what we are looking into today. This entry is all about the hits that have come from Wildstorm.
Here’s how this will work; I am going to list the series in descending order and will include paricular favourite trade paperback collections as well as bullet points regarding aspects I enjoyed about the series. The bullet points will be very similar to the ”Quick bits I liked about the issue” method used in the Weekly Pile reviews.
Please contiune on to see if your favourites made the list.
