I don’t remember Dazzler being involved in the Mutant Massacre? She’s only in one main issue of it, where Malice takes control of her and then the X-Men who show up to help. Her & Longshot join up with the team a few issues later; the Massacre is over but they’re tending to the survivors on Muir Island. The omnibus starts with the Massacre but also has plenty of the aftermath from X-Men & X-Factor. It’s a wonderfully packed volume; has a few issues of Thor, Power Pack and even the Daredevil issue where he fights Sabretooth and throws in the X-Men vs Fantastic 4/Avengers miniseries for good measure. I was really tempted to buy that. And I rarely get omnibus. Mostly cause I am rarely reading in an area that works well for something that large. Then remembered that I got most of it in issue form. And for me that storyline was when my interest in the X titles started to fade. Last week at Ollies got Wetworks Vol 2 Book 2. Read two issues out of it so far and fairly impressed. Wetworks is one of those Image titles where I have a pile of issues from vol 1 . Never read a single issue. Like seeing how Portacio's art changed over the years,he does the first issue in the trade. Mike Carey's writing is decent. But oddly seems this trade is missing 2 issues. It has 7,8,9. Then 12 thru 16 I think. Feels odd after what 30 years since it debuted I am finally reading Wetworks.

Wonder Woman#7 is gold this week. It's been a long time since Clark and Diana get some quality time together in the main comics, King is always at his best with comfy issues.

King seems to be indicating Diana will get back with Steve in his run, and Clark is married to Lois still.

I love when writers make Clark and Diana (and Bruce!) genuine friends and put time and effort into showing that. I thought it was really cute in this issue.

Disney has announced their next batch of people to be inducted as Disney Legends and one of them is Steve Ditko. Fully deserved, is he the third Marvel Creator to get in, behind the obvious Big two?

Something about Scout Comics came up on my FB feed, saying it's closing and mentioning 'recent troubles'. Does anyone here know the story, and can they provide the Cliff Notes version?

Seems Scout wasn't paying the talent and ghosted a pile of them.
Pretty standard indie comic stuff.

Wetworks Vol 2 TPB 2 (Issues 6-9&13-15) Wetworks is an oddity for me. I got a good chunk of vol 1. Never read any besides the sourcebook. Grabbed this revamping,guessing this was published in the late 90s?,not that long ago cheap. Saw it had Whlice Portacio art aand it was 2 bucks. Dane is rebuilding the Wetworks team,a military unit that has golden liquid skin and fights vampires and werewolves. Way way more military drama and political drama than I expected. With a big twist near the end of the secoond batch of issues feeling like a Jackie Brown style triple cross. Now sadly Whlice only does 1 full issue then a pile of covers. The other artists are good. Just with Wetworks I want that Whlice art. Wetworks vol 2 TPB 2 gets a C.

Had to run my mother to a doctor's appointment earlier. Thanks to the internet being off in town it was slow. Read the entire tpb while waiting. Yes I know Ellis did some stuff years back. And seems like he is trying to change and make amends. Great metafictional story. Which works even better if you know not only Moore's run on Supreme but the pre-Moore Supreme stuff. Amazing art. Which has some gorgeous double page spreads. No clue how this will read to anyone not well versed in Supreme. A-
