Astonishing X-Men #51Northstar and Kyle Jinadu tie the knot in "Astonishing X-Men" #51 and it's quite unlike other superhero weddings. At least for a little while.

Annihilators: Earthfall #4The Magus has control of a third of the minds in the US. How do you stop a being like that? The Avengers sure don’t know and the Annihilators may have to save the day again.

Annihilators: Earthfall #2The Annihilators have arrived on Earth and find that the Avengers aren’t so welcoming. I guess recruiting Ronan the Accuser doesn’t seem so smart now.

Avengers Academy #17"Avengers Academy" is hitting a turning point for its character, and it's not a pleasant one at that.

Defenders: From the Marvel Vault #1The original non-team team pulls back together in this issue. It's a nifty little one-shot featuring the Hulk, Dr. Strange, Silver Surfer, and Namor.

Avengers Academy #5A guest artist plus a spotlight on the least interesting member of "Avengers Academy" results in a good, not great issue.

The Thanos Imperative: Ignition #1Readers of Marvel's cosmic space books will find a lot to love here, but new readers might take extra time to fully get on board.

Avengers: The Initiative #35The Initiative closes up shop, making way for Christos Gage's "Avengers Academy" in a few weeks. That's another review for another time. This review is for one of the last chapters of "Siege."

Guardians of the Galaxy #25"Guardians of the Galaxy" comes to a conclusion not with a bang, but more of a quiet thud. Or is that a really loud blink?

She-Hulk Sensational #1A 30th anniversary "She-Hulk" special is a nice idea, but two of the three entries ignore that word "special."

Wolverine Origins #46Wolverine is about to take on Romulus (completely different meaning for those of us living the metro-Detroit area) and needs to lay some old ghosts to rest.

Avengers: The Initiative #34A solid tie-in that repeats a little too much of “Siege” #3 for its own good. It loses sight of what separates it from the other books involved in the event.

Hulk: Let the Battle Begin #1This book isn't part of the current "Hulk" stories by a long shot, but if you get past that it's entertaining enough.

Mighty Avengers #34The Avengers know that Loki is posing as the Scarlet Witch and aim to do something about it, but Loki’s presence is required elsewhere (“Siege”), so don’t expect a satisfying resolution to that plot.

Guardians of the Galaxy #21Conflict with the Luminals over an alien lifeform leads to beaurocracy, pregnancy (sort of), and a whole lot of headaches. Great comic.

Realm of Kings: Inhumans #1"Realm of Kings: Inhumans" is giving the political intrigue I was hoping for; with any luck, it won't devolve into fight scenes.

X-Factor Special: Layla Miller #1This second "X-Factor Special" takes a break from the regular title's narrative, but in such a way that will make the comic's fans not care about spending an extra dollar.

Iron Man: Director of S.H.I.E.L.D. #32This Iron Man title seems out of step with the character. It's a slow story that doesn't move the football a yard down the field.

X-Men: Legacy #210"X-Men: Legacy" emerges as perhaps the most focused of the post-Messiah Complex X-titles. Greg Land occupies the guest-art slot as Carey wraps up the redefinition of the title as a Professor Xavier solo-title.
