It’s about time the Taskmaster received his own mini-series, wouldn’t you say. Seems his former associates are not to happy that he is now working for Steve Rogers, so they but a billion-dollar bounty on his dead. I guess it will only be a matter of time before Deadpool pops up in this story.

Justice League of America #48

James Robinson (w), Mark Bagley, Rob Hunter, Norm Rapmund (a)

The finale of the JLA/JSA team-up as the greatest threat might not be Alan Scott (I mean, he is old) but another of the team members (my money is on Cyborg, he is so not human anymore).

One of two Curse of the Mutants crossovers this week (other Blade #1) as Storm & Gambit team up to take on vamps in downtown San Francisco. I don’t know why they just don’t contact Buffy to take care of this problem, she has an entire army of slayers and everything.

Secret Invasion HC

Brian Michael Bendis (w), Leinil Francis Yu (a)
