Each week we take a look at the other Best Stuff you might have missed...this week.
There may be some teeny tiny spoilers below.
ART OPS #1
Best Right Hook
This is a pretty amazing book. Without getting too much into it here, Reggie got a…special arm after an incident. He keeps in bandaged up. When he unwraps in, he unleashes quite a bit. Check out his punch.
HOWLING COMMANDOS OF S.H.I.E.L.D. #1
Best Reason not to Trust a Zombie with a Rocket Launcher
There’s a new team of Howling Commandos. One of the members is Zombie Jasper Sitwell. While on their latest mission, for some reason, Jasper ended up with a rocket launcher. Not the best idea they had.
BATGIRL #45
Best Reason Not to Shush Batgirl
Barbara is about to be in her friend's wedding. Dick Grayson shows up and they talk. He does the one thing you should never do, puts his finger to her mouth and tries shushing her.
NEW AVENGERS #2
Best Use of a Robot and Best Use of Ten Minutes after a Victory
What do you do if you just won a battle and have robots at your command? How about a ten-minute dance party and champagne for everyone?
JUSTICE LEAGUE: DARKSEID WAR: BATMAN #1
Best Reminder That Batman is Someone to Fear
Criminals are a superstitious cowardly lot, right? Batman wants to remind the lowest scum around about this.
I won't lie, that made me think of "I'm Your Boogie Man" by KC and the Sunshine Band.
CAPTAIN AMERICA: SAM WILSON #2
Best Use of a Telepathic Rapport with Birds
Sam needs to get a little head start against Steve Rogers and S.H.I.E.L.D. That's where the birds come in to provide a great distraction.
GRAYSON #13
Best Reason to Be Thankful Your Job Respects Your Privacy and Integrity (or Best Reason That Mole Removed Before Becoming a Super-spy)
It's understandable that if you're going to work for a super-secret spy organization, you can expect to be fully searched for any listening or recording devices when you return to the home base. But you would think an organization like Spyral would have better ways to check with all their insanely advanced technology. So just be happy you don't have to go through this sort of thing with your job.
HOUSE OF M #4
Best Reason Not to Fight Magneto with a Metal Trident
Poor Namor. What were you thinking? In his defense, Magneto did sort of lose his powers. How would he know Magneto would get them back at the perfect moment?
PREZ #5
Best Quote About Making Peace
We've heard about peace talks and all that. If you want to make peace, talking to friends isn't going to solve the problem. This is something that Mosche Dayon, an Israeli military leader and politician, was quoted to say, back the late 70s.
Best Thought for the Motivated Negotiator
Have you ever had to sit through negotiations? When it comes to money and what you believe you're worth, a good point is brought up here. It might be a bit extreme but it is something to think about.
UNBEATABLE SQUIRREL GIRL #1
Best Away to Avoid Legal Movie Rights Problems
When Squirrel Girl's mom visits, a good question is brought up about Doreen's origin. Is she a mutant? If she is, we know that means she can't be in any Marvel Studios projects. But it turns out they have a way around that, thanks to their doctor.
TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES #51
Most Unfortunate Thing About Being a Turtle-Shaped Hero
Heroes and vigilantes don't fight evil for the praise or adoration, for the most part. Some appreciation would be nice though. You can imagine what the average person would think when saved by a giant walking and talking turtle.
WHAT IF? INFINITY - DARK REIGN #1
Best Reminder that Norman Osborn is a Big Jerk
We all know Norman Osborn is a big evil jerk. Now imagine him with the Infinity Gauntlet. Of course he'll use the power for personal reasons like torturing Spider-Man by making him relive a horrific moment over and over in a loop.
DEADPOOL VS THANOS #4
Worst New Names After Becoming Avatars for Death
Deadpool and Thanos both have a thing for Death. When they become avatars for her, Deadpool comes up with some new names for them. It's as bad as you'd think.
Biggest Revelation About Eternity
Throughout this crazy adventure, we also discover a shocking truth about the omnipotent entity Eternity.
BLACK MAGICK #1
Best Reason to Turn Off Your Cell Phone Ringer
Okay, slight warning, this next one is a little "Mature."
By now, people should know, when you're in public or at a special gathering, the last thing you want is for your cell phone to go off.
SUPERMAN #45
Best Way to Spend Your Last $20
Superman's been going through some tough times. His secret identity has been exposed, he's lost some of his powers, and he has no source of income after getting fired from the Daily Planet. What's a guy to do with his last twenty bucks? Buy tacos, of course.
DEADPOOL & CABLE: SPLIT SECOND INFINITE COMIC #1
Best Reminder That Too Many Tacos May Not be a Good Thing
Even Deadpool, with his crazy healing factor, can't handle too many tacos. There's always a price to be paid.
That's it this week. Let us know in the comments below what other Best Stuff you dug this past week. Thanks to @FearTheLiving and @Jawshco for their suggestions! If you want to participate or felt we missed some other Best Stuff, don't complain, especially if you didn't offer any suggestions. Each week you can @reply me on Twitter a @GManFromHeck by Saturdays using the hashtag #BestStuffInComics. We'll give you a shout out and I'll think you're pretty groovy.
Be sure to always look for the best stuff and always be sure to look above you at the ceilings to make sure no one is crawling around and also try to make sure to remember moderation when it comes to tacos. No good will come from eating too many.
