cliffhanger of the week #2

counting down the best (i.e., the ones i read) cliffhangers of the week.
hey, we got six this week! yeah i know, i never learned how to choose.

#6
Wonder Woman #16
Gail Simone/Terry Dodson/Rachel Dodson

is this the real Hippolyta? so we got superNazis overrunning Paradise Island, the Circle planning to kill Wonder Woman, and we have Hippolyta down. we need next month's issue bad, if only because we also need more Dodson art.

#5
Black Adam #6
Peter Tomasi/Doug Mahnke/Christian Alamy/Rodney Ramos

yes, yes, i know this series concludes with this issue. but who wants to find out what happens when Black Adam finds that Faust really one-upped him and stole his girl? be honest, raise your hands. thought so.

#4
Death of the New Gods #5
Jim Starlin/Matt Banning/Art Thibert

so its come to this: the three main characters duking it out (well, that's the cliffhanger ...) and we have Darkseid anxiously awaiting the results. wait, did we find out who was killing the New Gods? oh yeah, that stupid ball of light ...

#3
Mighty Avengers #8
Brian Michael Bendis/Mark Bagley/Danny Miki

this tense exchange aside, Tony finds out the Venom virus that hit NYC originated from Latveria. so i expect him personally to kick Dr. Doom's ass, even just to blow some steam off (he got taken over by Ultron, everyone hates him for Cap's death among other things, he has a new movie coming out, etc). next question: is Doom a Skrull?

#2
The Sword #4
The Luna Brothers

have you ever been in a situation where you had chopped up dead bodies all around you, you're surrounded by cops, and you're holding a huge sword dripping with blood? i'm guessing a having multiple root canal sounds a whole lot better.

#1
Captain America #34
Ed Brubaker/Steve Epting/Butch Guice

well, duh.
