Many comics, but little time, so no spoilers this week...

52, Week Forty-Seven - Things are happening all over the place, as we are five weeks from the end. One key plotline is still missing, but what we see moves things along well. Too bad the art, by someone I never heard of before, is so poor.

Gargoyles 3 - At last, totally new canon! Good stuff, but perhaps more exposition about the supporting cast than we need.

Fables 59 - Wherein Willingham answers readers' questions about events from the first five years of the series. Lots of cute little short short stories, but no real content. That's three issues in a row that were not up to this book's lofty standards. Hopefully, with the start of a new arc and the return of Buckingham next issue, things will be back to normal.

Connor Hawke: Dragon's Blood - Connor vs. the dragon. Lots of action, but little else. Hopefully Dixon will tie things together in the last issue.

Batman 664 - What a mess. Half the story is irrelevant, half is incoherent. Morrison is often a great writer, but his work on this book has grown less and less readable. No reason to stick with this when Dini'd Detective is brilliant and Morrison's work on All-Star Superman (however poorly scheduled) is so much better as well.

The USPS, in its never ending effort to sell more stamps, is conducting an online poll to help select which Star Wars character or item should be on a stamp.

Once again, we must ask "what about Lando Calrissian?" And for that matter, how can Luke, Leia or Han be on a stamp since none of them are dead? (Or do we assume this was really along time ago and that all must be deceazed?)

I bet that Darth Vader wins. He usually does.

Looks like everyone in the government loves Star Wars today. First the Post Office, and now JPL. Not to say that this isn't cool. Or that it not's real science. But do we really need images from Star Wars to go with the story?
