Happy SatansDay!!!

So, I apologize for being such a suck-ass about reviewing lately -- I keep running out of time with stuff that HAS to get done (this week: setting up the Jun06 subs...), and reviews fall by the side.... so Lester does all of the heavy lifting, then I feel bad about it. But, this week is painfully small in shipping size, so I'm pretty darn sure that sometime this week I'll write a "proper" Savage Critic, where I cover (most) every comic that came out this week, howzabout that?

Here's some of what you can look forward to commentary on (Well, not all of it -- I'll be arsed if I will review MARVEL SPOTLIGHT):

Oh, and since Rj WILL ask, my ASSHAT OF THE WEEK is, hey! Robert Kirkman (yet again) for being insanely late on WALKING DEAD and INVINCIBLE, *and* shipping them both the same week...
