This column is pretty easy to figure out what it’s about. I will obviously be doing a top 5 countdown every week based on my stack of comics that I buy. I’ve been doing this since March of 2012 on my tumblr account ReadWatchedandSeen.tumblr.com and I enjoy doing it. With moving the column here to Comic Impact I hope to get more discussion going about comics and highlighting comics that I really like. So on tothis week’s top 5.

When I first heard that this comic was happening and that the creative team behind it would be Brian Bendis and Stuart Immonen my first thought was “FUCK YES!” There was absolutely no doubt in my mind that this comic was going to be awesome and that this creative was going to kill on this book. Bendis was written X-Men characters before in Avengers and the yearly crossover events that Marvel has done but he hasn’t written an X-Men book in the Marvel Universe before so I was excited to see where he would take these characters.
