Fan Panel Pick From Last Week – West Coast Avengers #9 – Jeff is Jawesome!/Humanizing Quentin?
KAT
Honorable Mention – Batgirl #33 – Scars
I love the mention of “family stuff” as we get a good view of the scar Babs’ gave James during the Gail Simone’s run.
5. Fantastic Four #8 – Don’t Underestimate INVISIBLE Woman/Transparency!
Sue is a bad ass, and don’t you forget it!
4. Detective Comics #1000 – Cheese/Bat-Family!
Didn’t expect Batman to be the type of guy to say cheese, but what a great double page spread of the Bat Family for this landmark issue.
3. Detective Comics #1000 – Family
2. Batgirl #33 – Kill Me
I really feel like Babs’ contemplated for a moment killing her brother. I love how the creative team plays with her mask in this scene. Is James the only person who knows the true Barbara Gordon?
1. Snotgirl #13 – Everybody Knows
A pretty big moment as all of Lottie’s secrets are starting to unravel to the public. Lottie can’t continue to hide behind her perfect social media image.
BRANT
Honorable Mention – Dial H for Hero #1 – Uncle Brant
5. Superior Spider-Man #4 – Now Go Be a Hero…
Anna-Maria lays it out for Doc Ock and puts him in his place. Gotta love it!
4. Heroes in Crisis #7 – One Punch!/Bang!
Blue Beetle dug his own grave there, so to speak, and Batgirl is just like “Huh.” Haha, love this scene!
3. Heroes in Crisis #7 – Not Good at Superheroing
This whole exchange, from the fight to this scene, was fantastic. It went through a whole range of emotions and was preceded by the previous scene. But this part, where Harley stops and collapses beside Booster and they both admit they suck at this was just a perfect ending for their confrontation.
2. Avengers: No Road Home #7 – Realization
Don’t you just love it when something starts to sink in for someone and you watch as the light bulbs brighten and realization falls across their face? That’s not easy to do in static form like a comic page, but here it was pulled off just right!
1. Detective Comics #1000 – Cheese/Bat-Family!
The build up of this story was brilliant, and culminating in this group photo was priceless. Call me a softy, I loved it!
JAY
5. The Lollipop Kids #4 – Helluva Lot Scarier!
We all know that a parent can be a helluva lot scarier than anything out there LOL
4. Fantastic Four #8 – Transparency!/Don’t Underestimate INVISIBLE Woman
I loved this! Sue is so much more powerful than anyone gives her credit for and she knows sometimes it isn’t a physical punch that hurts the most, sometimes it is the psychological one!
3. Heroes in Crisis #7 – One Punch!/Bang!
I LOVE the one punch scene ever since Ted said it when Batman knocked Guy Gardner out and this one is one of the best! I love how casual she does it too, this was just an awesome scene!
2. Heroes in Crisis #7 – Hickory Dickory Dock…
1. Detective Comics #1000 – Cheese/Bat-Family!
I love seeing the Bat-Family here even where everyone is positioned, this is just a Batacular panel!
MIKE SPIDER-SLAYER
5. Avengers No Road Home #7 – Some Kind of Steel Devil
Poor Vision, the dude just can’t catch a break. He is already dying as it is, Conan’s blow to the side of his face does not help.
4. Superior Spider-Man #4 – I’m Sup…Yes, I’m Spider-Man
Finally, Superior trying not to be an ass, and being more like Spider-Man was a good scene. Here in the next panel he had to tell the little boy his mother died.
3. Shazam #4 – Robo Cop
Eugene calling the referees Robo Cop in Gameland for some reason had me laughing.
2. Dial H For Hero #1 – Monster Truck
Monster Truck!! OMG WOW, DC are you poking fun at Marvel and Rob Liefeld here?
1. Heroes in Crisis #7 – One Punch!/Bang!
One of the best scenes of the series for me in this issue. Barbara punching out Blue Beetle so Harley could get the upper hand was so funny. Come on Blue Beetle! Don’t give away your secret, Barbara didn’t even have to try.
