Top Five Fridays 11/2/07
Some of you may have noticed on the sidebar, we have our “Top Five of the Moment” listed. These are the five books that are most clicking with each Pants writer. It may or may not represent the best books we’ve read all month, year, or just what we’re digging that week. We generally try to update it with books from that week, but there are no hard and fast rules. Inspired by an email from one of our readers, we’re going to post every Friday with the most recent Top Five from each member of the Panteon, and hope for your comments on our lists, or maybe even your own “Top Five of the Moment.”
Also, just as the Wednesday Number Ones feature is generally our spot for folks to talk about the comics of the week, we hope that Top Five Fridays is where you’ll come to talk about what’s going on in comics in general. News in the comics world, thoughts on comics you’ve recently read, talk about comic-related movies that release this weekend and more are welcome in the comments thread for Top Five Fridays.

QuoteAmerican Virgin is so much better when the messed-up family is focus of the story. The last 5 issue arc slowly detailing Adam getting his head of his prissy little arse was vaguely interesting but it didn’t make me feel bad when the final issue was solicited. After this week’s issue, I’m gonna miss this title…

QuoteDont’s have a five, but I noticed that the Daredevil Annual made on a lot of folks lists. I thought it was OK, but I got annoyed by Brubaker’s interpretation of Black Tarantula. Defalco’s Black Tarantula was this urbane and sophisticated Brazilian crime lord, Bru’s is some street talking Cholo, nevermind the guy’s is supposed to be Brazilian. So he goes from a interesting villain to a walking stereotype. Oh yea.
