Raven #1 is another number one of a limited series we checked out this week. It goes deep into DC continuity, but it's a book that two thirds of us feel good about recommending. On stands this week, Cable #1 is a Messiah Complex spin-off. Cable is traveling somewhere in time with an X-Baby trying to keep it safe from harm. It's a good book and well worth picking up.

It felt like the characters were a bit removed from their environment. Comic Book Comics deals with the history of comic books in the form of a comic. It truly represents what a comic is all about and we think it's really well done and a great read for beginners.

Atom Eve is back and although this book is short on story, we still recommending picking it up. Justice League of America #18 is a follow-up on the story line where the villains were sent to prison on another planet. It's a decent issue but we think it serves as filler and hope there's better stuff coming. Then in Superman Confidential #12, Jimmy Olsen's still causing trouble. The book feels a lot like the Superman animated series and the art by Phil Hester is really top-notch. In the speed round, we picked five books that we highly recommend. Check out Seventy Six #2, X-Factor #28, Wolverine #62, The Walking Dead #46 and The Punisher: Force of Nature. Then in the Mailbag we talk about our favorite "one-shot" comics.
