Young Avengers #1 Preview. Kate and Noh-Varr (I shall dub them "Kano")
Jamie McKelvie posted some preview pages of Young Avengers #1 showing Kate and Noh-Varr (I shall dub them "Kano." And yes, I know that is the name of a villain in Mortal Kombat. That you could make that a portmanteau couple name is amusing to me.)

Little clippings and then a serious bit at the end.
2 of my favourite panels from books that I picked up this week. The first is from the ( Jamie McKelvie drawn back up to Invincible Iron Man #33 ) ( and from Power Girl ) ( and the serious edit, which deals with sexual assault )

Awesome New Female Character: Abigail Brand
Ornery, unyielding, quick-tempered, terribly busy, and the best damn person to lead the planet's first line of defense, Abigail Brand is my candidate for Awesome New Female Characters Week!

( Let me tell you a few things about Abigail Brand. )
And if you're thinking of complaining about how Beast looks, really, we've heard it all before.

Loki lays down the law.
Greetings True Believers!
Loki is many things. God, mischief-maker, warlock, string-puller, liar, cheater, shape-shifter, politican. But people shouldn't forget that Loki is an Asgardian. Spoilers and enjoy!

Seige: Loki Preview
The God of Mischief lives up to his name. IGN has the preview. So far it looks like a well written take on the character. Two separate pages from the preview behind the cut.

A little Lockheed Love.
Without a doubt Lockheed is my favorite dragon, and quite possibly my favorite Marvel character ever. Please enjoy some of Lockheed's scenes from S.W.O.R.D #1 and #3:

Phonogram - The Singles Club #4

Spending the evening in the DJ's booth tonight, with Seth Bingo and the Silent Girl.
( Konichiwa Bitches )
Phonogram - The Singles Club #3
If you've read Rue Britannia, tonight's cast may be more familiar to you.
Our host for the evening is Emily Aster, who "snipped away the bits [of herself] she didn't like and traded them for power."

Phonogram - The Singles Club #2
Memories are funny things. You'll never know what'll trigger them until it's too late.
Music is no exception. I'm sure many of us have cursed songs, I can tell you to this day what I was listening to when I got the news that my little brother died. No matter what kind of mood they intended to inspire, any time they come the memory'll crawl down your stomach and start kicking you from the inside.
But how much worse would it be for a phonomancer, when the emotional becomes the literal?
This is Marc's story.

Phonogram - The Singles Club #1
*No Magic
Meant to do this yesterday, but my internet's been giving me trouble.
The second series of Phonogram ended last month, and in that time I've absolutely fallen in love with it, so I figured I'd share. I'll try to showcase an issue each day, as the internet'll allow me.
So let's take it from the beginning.
( Pull Shapes )
And then the twister comes. Here comes the twister.
So, I started a Twitter recently to hash out my feelings on my comics each week, and one of the creators I ended up following is Kieron Gillen, who you may know for taking over the reigns from JMS on Thor, or writing the absolutely delightful and unfortunately to-be-cancelled S.W.O.R.D. Anyway, he'd been talking about his Image mini-series Phonogram: The Singles Club, which ended this week, so I decided to give issue 7 a shot.
I'm sharing with you today the last story, because they warmed my Talking Heads-loving heart.
( Two pages and a back cover under the cut. )
Also, while we're talking about music, I just wanted to share a final reminder to anyone hoping to participate in the Scans_Daily Boom De Yada Project, you have until midnight EST on Sunday to record your submissions! I actually have almost all the verse-lines I need, but there were still a few people who wanted to contribute that I haven't heard back from yet!
I do have a dire shortage of laaaand-liiiieefeelds recorded though, so if anyone can spare a few minutes and help me with those, I'd really appreciate it.
So if you're interested and want to chip in, go check this post to see how you can help!
And remember, midnight tomorrow!

I may have sold the soul of my firstborn for these...
One page from Phonogram #6, by Kieron Gillen and Jamie McKekvie that I felt HAD to be shared. I have FINALLY gotten my gubbey hands on all six issues of this story, and this needs sharing because in a work that is FILLED with awesomeness, this is one of the most beautiful pages that I could ever show that wouldn't give things away.
