“SIX HOURS TO KILL, PART 2: FIELD DAY”
W.C. Fields once mused that he’d rather be dead than play Philadelphia. Well, if you cross paths with Frank Castle, you’ll be able to have it both ways. Castle has been injected with a slow-acting poison that will kill him in less than hours—but don’t think he’s going to spend them moping around. As long as blood is still pumping through his rock-hard veins, the Punisher plans on killing as many dirtbags as possible. But the Philadelphia underworld isn’t going to roll over so easily. Neither is the top-secret black bag ops unit that dosed Frank. And don’t forget the Mayor of Philadelphia, who only sees one way of saving his already-shaky political career: killing Frank way before his six hours are up.

And while Cyclops thinks he’s finally removed the only threat to the Cable and the mutant messiah child out in the timestream, he couldn’t be more wrong. He’s only made it worse.

Picking up where we left off from the last post, here are some more peeks at The Last Defenders #1, Mighty Avengers #10, New Exiles #3, Nova #11, and Thunderbolts #119. If there’s anything here you’d like to talk about, stop by the Marvel Noise forum and let your voice be heard!

The Last Defenders #1

Mighty Avengers #10

New Exiles #3

Nova #11
By Dan Abnett & Andy Lanning (writers), Paul Pelletier (pencils), and Rick Magyar (inks)

Thunderbolts #119
By Warren Ellis (writer) and Mike Deodato, Jr. (art)

Initial thoughts:

The Last Defenders is off to a great start. I’m along for this ride. If more comics were presented the way Mighty Avengers #10 is presented it would be a much better world. I was giddy when I saw Tom Orzechowski’s name as the letterer of a Chris Claremont-written comic. And the team of Grummett and Hanna isn’t anything to sneeze at. Nova continues to kick ass, and I’m glad Pelletier and Magyar are working on a book I enjoy. Thunderbolts is still just outside my grasp, but something I plan on reading one of these days.
