I think this is going to be a great issue so Id say Yes. Its going to be interesting to see what happens as this is mid-story and mid-crossover so its certainly in medias res. (maybe the best and/or worst time to hop-on)

The premise of the ultimates team was to be a proactive team shutting down bad stuff before they get out of hand. With the CWII story they might just have the ultimate way to do just that but at what moral cost.

Throw in thanos and a team full of powerful interesting characters in a tense situation and this should be superhero comic magic!

(I havent read anything with Blue Marvel before and those parts are a new to me but it works anyway)

Week of August 18th I grabbed
Aliens Defiance #3 (Dark Horse) - I'm liking this series.
Black Hammer #2 (Dark Horse) - Enjoying this series also.
Briggs Land #1 (Dark Horse) - Good first issue, I will give this a couple more.
Star Trek #60 (Idw) - Good issue. Been a good series and I will continue reading the reboot.
Tales From The Darkside #3 (Idw) - Excellent mini series by Joe Hill.
Demonic #1 (Image) - So so issue. May not be back for issue 2.
Horizon #2 (Image) - Haven't read this one yet.
The Hunt #2 (Image) - Liked the first issue, this one not as much.
Manifest Destiny #22 (Image) - Very good series.
Throwaways #2 (Image) - Haven't read this one yet.
Red Team Double Tap #2 (Dynamite) - Still on the "to read" pile.
Miraculous #4 (Action Lab) - See above.
Ultraman GN #5 (Viz) - I'm an Ultraman fan from way back and this is a good story.

For 8/23:

Detective Comics #939r--eally liking this Bat-Fam book
Hellblazer #1--giving it a shot, re-birth was okay
Lucifer #9--not sure why I still pick this up, it's really confusing
International Iron Man #6--a good Tony story
Darkwing Duck #4--exactly like the 90's TV show

Finally a light week! might need to get a tpb to fill out the shopping bag

Detective Comics #393 Kinda like this, dont like the early crossover with bat and grayson but since im getting those theyre in luck
Titans #2 never read titans before, seems to be a good place to find a selfcontained story with lesser known dc heroes
Wonder Woman #5 isnt caught up with issues 3-4, time to figure out if its a keeper
Captain Marvel #8
Extraordinary Xmen #13
New Avengers #15 as i understand they will change this to usavengers and thats too bad, its been fun having sunspot in the spotlight
Star Wars #22

Week of August 25th. Seriously gotta make some cuts. This is ridiculous.

Victor, I may have to check out the Darkwing Duck series.

I really am wanting a new DuckTales book though. I read an old Scrooge story with Magica De Spell's first appearance, and it was a lot of fun.

That is a lot of books man - how do you read that much in a week

By staying up late when I should be sleeping and spending my work breaks and lunch reading. I'm making cuts this week. The thing is, as much as I love comics, I have other hobbies and things of interest as well. Need to maintain a little better balance than I have been. There are so many good books, but a hobby is suppose to enhance your life, not be a burden. We may have slightly crossed into burden territory. Need a slight course correction.
