'We all have to do what Ed [Brubaker] says now. He dresses like one of those old-time Mafia dons from Godfather 2 these days, and talks about "dipping his beak" a lot. If I were to create new characters, he would say "this is not the act of a friend" and the next morning I'd wake up with my kid's horse's head in my bed. So, yes, I'm still using the Shadow Council. But it amuses me to fold some old Marvel history in there too. I just hope Ed doesn't notice.' - Warren Ellis

"She's Superman but also a telepathic bad bitch. Lately she also has a delicious red candy apple form with terrifying claws. It's complicated, you'll figure it out. Don't worry about it."
-- CerebroCast on Monet St. Croix

There's another X-book to add to the Reign of X titles and it's one X-Men fans have been anticipating for a while: motherflippin' X-Corp.

In case you didn't know already, "the Pizza Dog issue" of Hawkeye (#11) won an Eisner for Best Single Issue(as well as Aja repeating his Best Cover Artist award from 2013).

Hopefully, "the Signing issue", out this week, will be considered during award season next year.

First off, if you're going to buy the book ( you'll need this )

But, before that, you should realise that ( it's great )

Paste: But do you feel constrained by “no killing” rules when you’re writing a character whose only power is a bow and arrow?

Fraction: No, I like it. Comics are too dark. They’re too grim. Dark and grim are fine, but when it’s the standard operating procedure, it bums me out after a while. It’s the challenge of getting back to the Stephen J. Cannell-ness of it all.

Remember, like many issue of the series, this issue is told in non-chronological order.

Also, Kate is still awesome. God, they need to make a Young Avengers show, just to how the rest of the world how awesome she is.

Anyway, Hawkeye has proven to be the best thing Marvel has right now, with possible exception to Winter Soldier, Daredevil, and a small handful of other titles. But, the one problem I, and many othes had was Clint sleeping with Cherry, despite him being in a relationship with Jessica Drew at the time.

And in this issue, she apparently confronts him about it.

( Six Days in the Life of Hawkeye )

And how does Hawkeye celebrate such a day as this?

Well, by getting caught in the middle of a very strange love pentagon between the woman Bendis put him with, the woman Fraction's put him with, the woman Whedon sort of-but not quite hinted he was with, and the woman he used to be with and still has strong feelings for of course!

I waited far too long to post his preview, but here, Hawkeye celebrates Christmas the old fashioned way: By getting Concussions on his concussions, pretending he’s a character in a side scrolling beat-em-up game, and avoiding getting the finale of Cop Dogs being spoilt.

Ever since the end of Children's Crusade, Kate has been away from the super hero community. But apparently not that far since she's hanging out with Clint Barton during his off-hours.
