While I have waited to dig into Allred and Matt Fraction's Fantastic Four in a collected edition, I couldn't resist jumping in to cruise the spaceways with Norrin Radd.

Hawkeye Volume 1: My Life as a Weapon, from Marvel Comics, written by Matt Fraction, with art by David Aja and Javier Pulido    Well, who are we to argue with the Angouleme Official Committee?
