Sup ‘net! We’re heading down the final stretch of Secret Wars tie-ins. And they wrap up, we’re seeing some serious disappointing endings and outings. (The disappointment of the week will surprise you. Especially coming from me!) But there is also a particularly green title that turned out to be different than what it originally seemed! One of my favorite comic creative teams takes 2 of the top spots. The #1 pick this week doesn’t fight fair in the least. And I’ll tell you about the best Image title you’re not checking out. PRESS PLAY!

Hey Comic Impact! This week you’ll get the top 5 but I’m sorry I won’t be diving into any of the issues in too much detail. This weekend was a busy one with my father visiting us from New York and also I had some personal things to deal with, and I’m not going to lie, I’ve been trying to watch a lot of Arrested Development. So instead this week I’m going to talk briefly about each issue and why I picked it but if you want to more detailed and deeper discussion on these books please check out the Pick of the Week podcast for May 22, 2013.

Hey Comic Impact! Sorry for the delay this week. I had gotten my comics read pretty fast last week but didn’t have time to write up anything about them because I spent the weekend visiting friends and family back in New York. I’m still a little tired but wanted to get this out to you guys as soon as I could. I’m not going to go into too much detail this week but make sure to listen to the Pick of the Week Podcast this week as Simon, Sheldon, and I go more in depth on last week’s comics.

1. Scarlet #6 by Brian Michael Bendis and Alex Maleev [Icon] Though this was my number one pick of the week I decided to write about it last because of a very personal connection I have to this book. I just wanted to put that out there and I also want to say that comic books, like any other medium are suppose to make you feel something, something besides enjoyment. I feel connected with characters, especially the ones that I really love that’s why I love Batman and Spider-Man so much. Anyway I’m going to talk about the comic first and what happens in the issue and then I’ll talk about my connection and why it means so much to me and why I felt the way I did. When Bendis launched this book last year with Alex Maleev I was excited because this book was very different from what Bendis was doing on his Marvel work at the time, and when this launched it was a breath of fresh air in his writing, not to say that he lost anything, I have and always will be a Bendis fan.

Oh, man! Finally, it’s time for another POW, Pick Of the Week Podcast! I know you couldn’t hold your anticipation much longer, and you’re a real trooper for toughing it out. Good job! Ian has the pick this week and he went with Amazing Spider-Man #655. Unfortunately, Simon, Ken and Sheldon couldn’t disagree more. The podcast reaches riotous proportions as the group lets Ian know what a dumbass he is for such an irresponsible pick. He may be fired. Simon also starts to realize that he’s more of a fan of 1990’s comics than he thought, Sheldon is going to follow Bucky to Russia to help him fight bears and Ken can’t find his cat. It’s a show for the ages, my friend! Don’t listen at your own risk!
