I cover a lot of different titles, with some particular attention to the previous runs of "Spider-Man 2099" and "Nova." Welcome back, Richard! Until next time, Miguel.

Venom #35 (HERE BE SPOILERS!)
I'm torn where to go with this series at this point. Unusually, Bunn wraps up this arc in a way that it would be pretty easy to leave the title now and feel satisfied. Eddie agrees to allow Flash to try to live a normal life and hopefully Flash will do exactly that. Sure, he'll have some challenges to overcome, but at some point he'll hopefully settle into his role as a teacher, maybe meet a girl, and live a regular ol' superhero life. The problem is that this series rarely allows Flash that sort of chance and I'm just not sure I want to be here as Flash continues to get broken more and more. Moreover, I'm not a huge fan of Bunn's. For example, Eddie's sudden decision to allow Flash off the hook was as convenient as Flash and Eddie miraculously defeating the techno-creatures, who seemed nigh unstoppable last issue. It just felt like Bunn decided that he wanted to be done with both stories, rather than them coming to their natural conclusion. Decisions, decisions.
