The tech-gone-wrong thriller series continues in Terrorbytes #5. Though weaker than preceding issues, Russell's story is very clever in how it buries the lead for what is really going on.

Jed MacKay's excellent (and, by current Marvel standards, very long running) Moon Knight epic continues with the new Marc Spector: Moon Knight #1. This intense first issue kicks off a new arc and is perfect for readers old and new.

Batgirl #16 wraps up the Nyssa Al Ghul arc with a little betrayal and, more importantly, a lot more Cass introspection. The series gets back to what it does best after a few muddled issues.

Amazing Spider-Man 21's plot is of little consequence. It's probably better that the goblin slayers fade to the background actually, because it lets the much more impressive Norman Osborn character exploration shine.

Fraction and Jiménez deliver great character oriented scenes in Batman #6, from the aftermath of Bruce and Annika's sort-of-date to an announcement by Tim, and even a little villain humanizing. One of the young series' best.

Technically it's turning 31 now. But once you start talking about Age of Apocalypse, it's hard to stop. It's the last two first issues today, Factor X and X-Man. And that means back guys and whining!

X-Factor 69 was the last issue prior to Peter David taking over as the series' writer and the penultimate issue in the Muir Island Saga. The crossover saw the end of Chris Claremont's original Uncanny run. This issue is a little uneven but fun.
