Comic Book Moments of the Week for 12/01/10

Alright, it's time for some Moments of The Week! The big winner this time around is Secret Six, where I had to restrain myself from just posting the whole comic. We also have some big moments from the Shadowland finale, Action Comics Annual, and the big twist at the end of Heroes for Hire. Hit the jump to see them.

Action Comics Annual #13

Don't let the hair fool you, that's Lex Luthor there making a grand exit from Apokolips.

Ant-Man & Wasp #2

Hank Pym and Eric O'Grady enter the mindscape dimension, using an armor formed from their subconscious thoughts. He's the irredeemable Ant-Man for a reason. Also, I'm pretty sure that's Finesse from the Avengers Academy in that second panel, isn't it?

Brightest Day #15

Ah, Goriest Day, my old friend, we meet again!

Generation Hope #2

Gillen addresses the homage/parody to Akira in the last issue. As Hope says, this is just Kenji's favorite fantasy.

Giant monsters. Why'd have to be giant monsters?

Heroes for Hire #1

Misty Knight is shown to be assembling heroes throughout the issue, but the final pages reveal that she is being controlled by none other than the Puppet Master. He always looks creepy, but Brad Walker delivered a truly unnerving image.

Secret Six #28

Friendship as defined by the Secret Six.

And love as well. This was a really good scene between Bane and Scandal Savage.

Lady Vic gets one in the knees. Did she kill someone close to Deadshot? I forgot why there is such animosity between the two of them.

King Shark confirmed for joining the Secret Six? I am OK with this.

The best part of this whole issue was the three page epilogue, with Giganta avenging Ryan Choi (The Atom). Gail Simone was his co-creator, and she was pretty upset when they killed him, so this is her way of addressing it.

Shadowland #5

Alright, what the heck is going on here? Last time someone stole the Ghost Rider's powers, reality was almost destroyed. Just exactly what has gotten into Daredevil?

For all of Shadowland's faults, this was a pretty clever idea. Iron Fist uses his healing power to help Daredevil fight back against the infection that is corrupting his soul.

Daredevil/Matt Murdock commits psychological seppuku.

The extended cast of Shadowland deals with the aftermath. I think most readers will take the same route as Master Izo and just drink this storyline away.

Wolverine: The Best There Is #1

Odd haircuts and people dancing at clubs? I think this calls for a crossover with Phonogram!
