Fan Panel Pick From Last Week – Spider- Gwen: Ghost Spider #1 – The Reveal
KAT
5. X-Men Black: Emma Frost #1 – Hail to Your New Dark King
This was such an Emma Frost moment!
4. West Coast Avengers #3 – Kate Hawk
3. Heroes in Crisis #2 – Go Fish
2. Heroes in Crisis #2 – Boop
1. Fence #11 – I’m Proud of You
Nicholas has worked so hard to get to this moment, and I just love the facial expression here.
BRANT
Honorable Mention – Heroes In Crisis #2 – Classic Harley
I had to include this panel for the visual of Harley Quinn back in her original costume alone. That was such a cool and fun thing to see.
5. Nightwing/Magilla Gorilla Special #1 – GRAPE APE!
I kept saying I just want to see Grape Ape in one of these, and here we got him! A bit brash, and cockier than I would care for, but I don’t even care because I got to see him!
4. X-Men Black: Emma Frost #1 – MallMart
This was just a funny scene, having Emma Frost have to meet the X-Men at their equivalent of a Wal-Mart was priceless.
3. Nancy Drew #5 – I Know
Sure, Bess stole Han Solo’s line, but I just loved it anyway. This relationship has been one of the highlights of the book for me.
2. Old Man Hawkeye #10 – Total Eclipse of the Heart
First, Moonstone’s appearance, man, that rock has not been good to her. But the exchange between Kate and Clint was funny and a classic Hawkeye moment.
1. Heroes in Crisis #2 – Bat Feelings/I’m Sorry/They All Die
The great thing about this series so far is the deep emotion involved. And while most of my picks are lighthearted, I had to go with this one because this is Bruce Freaking Wayne breaking down about the lives lost at his own hands. It was deep, it was emotional, and it was Bats being real. Loved it.
CHRIS
5. The Terrifics Annual #1 – Luke-A-Like
….But it’s my son.
4. Spider-Force #1 – Friendly Neighborhood P.S.A.!
Spider-Kid!!!!
3. Justice League/Aquaman: Drowned Earth #1 – You Had This Much Power….
Aquaman loses his powers.
2. Heroes In Crisis #2 – Bat Feelings/I’m Sorry/They All Die
I train partners and watch them all die.
1. Heroes In Crisis #2 – Then Which One Was I?
Who is Superman?
JAY
Honorary Mention – Heroes In Crisis #2 – Bat Feelings/I’m Sorry/They All Die
Such a powerful scene and maybe the most powerful is just seeing Batman say the words “I’m sorry”, it just brings it home.
5. West Coast Avengers #3 – I Refuse To Answer That….
4. Fence #11 – Because They, You Know….
3. Spider-Force #1 – Friendly Neighborhood P.S.A.!
2. Heroes In Crisis #2 – Bite My Lip….
1. Heroes In Crisis #2 – Then Which One Was I?
My absolute favorite scene of the issue, seeing Clark expose himself, to be this vulnerable and FINALLY someone was able to make a good case of Clark being a mask. This makes me want to see how Tom King would write Superman monthly even more than the Wal-Mart Giant does.
MIKE SPIDER-SLAYER
5. West Coast Avengers #3 – Lets Talk About This
Kate trying to reason with Tigra on getting some coffee was a fun moment! Love this book, don’t care what anyone says.
4. Avengers Halloween Special #1 – Pulling A Negan
This overall book was very well done all the stories felt like this was an indy book. Here, Matt Murdock pulls out his brand new eyes as he was hallucinating, but just as he does that Kingpin is going to pull a Negan on him.
3. Spider-Force #1 – Roll Call, Please
Spider-Kid calling all the Spider-people super-friends had me cracking up. Come on Spider-Kid, don’t you know Marvel from DC?
2. Heroes In Crisis #2 – Bat Feelings/I’m Sorry/They All Die
1. Avengers Halloween Special #1 – Monster Movie Action
This is so fitting for the week of Halloween. This scene reminds me of the movie The Thing – a Monster like Captain America is literally eating Deadpool and Tony Stark walks in on that crazy mess.
