Thanks for the review Greg, I appreciate it.

''Why this issue of Jack of Fables is the greatest issue ever!!!! A tiger eats Toto. No, not that Toto (although how cool would that have been?). The other Toto. Isn’t he the most annoying thing in the movie? Don’t you wish the Cowardly Lion had eaten him at some point?''

I'm guessing Toto is one of the two Fables killed... Not sure about the second, but the Bagman sneaking up on Jack on the last page is shown a few pages before trampling a bunch of tiny people after crossing a stream (ironic if they were the same ones who were telling the ''damned munchkin giants'' to watch were they stepped earlier). Maybe Revise meant one of them.

Morrison did the first arc on the title, and it featured Ne-Bu-Loh, who shows up partially because the two teams featured (JLA and the Ultramarines) both feature seven members, so they feared THEY were the Seven Soldiers.

My trades mention nothing of this!
(and I really hate the way they've done the trades by the way - in order of release! They don't trust us to pick where the stories meet?)

Guardian Rules!

Besides, McGuinness' art is sure pretty compared to Bianchi's progessively worse Shining Knight and definitely Mister Miracle's "art" job.

Or better yet, you could’ve reread all the minis (plus JLA Classified 1-3) prior to the release of Seven Soldiers #1.

Bah, that would include FORESIGHT!!

And should I really break out JLA Classified, too?

I'm too young to even know what "cornporn" is.

I especially loved that every word out of her mouth wasn't phonetic cornporn Southern dialect approximation attempts. When did they stop that? 'Bout time.

Nextwave: I'm pretty sure "The Homosexuality" was the name of the team and not another unseen character other than the Apollo, Northstar, Midnighter and Renee Montoya jokes.

Planetary: Yep, there's one more issue. I believe Ellis mentioned a while ago that issue #26 would resolve the main conflict and that #27 would be the epilogue that closed the series. (probably Ambrose's revival, I'm guessing.)

Wetworks: I actually liked this issue a bit more than the first one, although the only sequence that I particularly thought interesting was the Ab-Death fight in the deadworld. At least it made me think that Carey may be doing something more than the Cyborgs with chainguns material that comprised the first series. I was on the fence after the first issue, but I'm sticking with this for another month for now

X-Men: I'm by far enjoying this series the most of any X-title running right now. Though not necessarily the flashiest cast, it's an interesting enough collection of characters for the team, and I think Carey's got a great handle on the personalities of the team members. It's nothing particularly amazing yet, but it just works for me, and I can see a lot of potential for this series in the long term if Carey sticks with it.

I forgot about The Prisoner reference, which I've seen before in regard to DP. Sigh. Ellis ripping off the same source as Morrison is doubly bad, because neither one of them is being original!!!!

You'll totally kill Wolverine off-panel. He'll forget to use the crosswalk and get creamed by a bus - a mutant bus that cancels his healing factor.

Not quite true. Both Ellis and Morrison are making separate references to The Prisoner. Hell, if you read The Invisibles, you'll know that Morrison drops a Prisoner reference about every three panels.
