Waddup famsquad, it's paneltime!
Last week's poll was won by Kill or be Killed #18, in a shocking turn of events that surprised everyone.
This week's notable releases include the beginning of Black Science's new storyline, as well as a new one for Gravedigger's Union. Then Scales & Scoundrels is doing a more-or-less one-shot issue this week about lonely mermaids, and Stray Bullets seems to promise a particularly trippy issue this time...
New this week is the premiere of Death or Glory, drawn by French superstar illustrator Bengal and written by some dude called Rick Remender? Always nice to see newcomers in comics!
It's a heist/crime/car/motorcycle/chase story set in the West of America, a cross-county race of sorts. Bound to look stylin' of course, and it's debuting at a double-sized pagecount to boot!

New Remender Book Day. Ah, I remember that exciting feeling.
That said..
East of West #37. And congrats to Hickman and Dragotta and company on the Amazon TV show announcement.

I was impressed by Death or Glory. Black Science didn’t do as much for me, I’ll stick with it until the end but I’m glad they’re finally starting to wind it down (sounds like two arcs left).
Those were the only two for me. Would’ve given East of West, Sex Criminals, and Gravediggers a shot if I were caught up.

I voted for East of West, the only one I got this week.
I use to mostly have a look at the trades of Remender's books when they come out. I got tired of Black Science after a few arcs - I was pretty enthusiastic at first.Last edited by Abe; 05-05-2018 at 12:51 AM.

I'm the same way with Black Science. I don't know what happened specifically, it just lost me.

Voted Stray Bullets for its usual insanely can't-believe-it moments, conveyed with excellent moments of dialogue and usual flawless graphics--scariest comic book around. Death or Glory's weak opening soured me until midway where it really begins to get engaging. It was an okay first issue, but Bullets grabbed me.

I decided today to pick up Death or Glory #1 since there were still a good amount of issues on the shelf. I'm glad I did. It was really good. With Descender, Kill or Be Killed, and East of West all coming to a close, I'll be adding this to my pull list.
Not good enough to change my vote from East of West though. I'll miss that book once it's over.

I realise I'm a bit behind but I picked up Death or Glory #1 at my LCS this week. Really liked it so I think I'll be adding it to my pull list.

I picked it up a week after it's release and felt the same way about it. Glad I decided to pick it up and glad there were extra copies hanging around at my LCS Originally Posted by FluffySheep
