A whooping 16 new comics this week: 2 X of Swords books, a new Werewolf series, 
and a few team ups. Plus a retro review.

_Notes: _X of Swords reading order for this week: Excalibur, X-Men…Iron Man guest
stars in Aero…Amazing Spider-Man sets up the next arc of the Kindred’s storyline
and it brings in other Spider-Characters…Juggernaut, working for Damage Control,
takes on the Hulk in Juggernaut #2…Guardians of the Galaxy deals with the cosmic
fallout of Empyre…A new Werewolf is introduced in Werewolf by Night…

**Best of Last Week:**
**Cable #5:** Any of these X of Swords titles are interchangeable
at the top of the week. Cable deals with the SWORD station being overrun with a 
disease. Interesting stuff setting up Cable as a combatant with his Space Knight
sword.**Hellions #5:** Hellions might be one of the most dysfunctional books written
today and I love it. Empath and John Greycrow have an interesting dynamic.**New 
Mutants #13:** A very Cypher heavy book as he comes to terms with his powerset and
being selected for the tournament. A great character piece.**Avengers #37:** The
end of the Age of Khonshu, and really, I’m disappointed with the story as a whole.
There was so much potential and it just fizzled out without a real explanation. 
It’s just setting up the next Phoenix arc.**X of Swords Handbook #1**: Solid sourcebook,
but little new information here. More for collectors or new readers.

I missed Captain America #24, Captain Marvel #22, and Star Wars: Darth Vader #6 
last week; I’ll be catching up on them before the next issue comes out.

**Retro Review: Return of the Living Deadpool** – Starting up after the _Night of
the Living Deadpool_, this takes place with a possible Wade Wilson (not clear in
the story, but I’m guessing not) trying to stop zombies and Deadpools. In the previous
book, Deadpool sacraficed himself to cure the zombie apocalypse. But when the zombies
eat Deadpool, they become Deadpools. A hivemind of Deadpools actually. So humans
are now hunted by the zombies and Deadpools. One Deadpool rejected the hivemind 
and tries to help some humans find the safe zone.

Like a lot of Deadpool stories, this is made stronger with the supporting cast. 
Liz, a teenaged human looking for her family, teams up with our Deadpool to help
people. While they don’t have much time to get into her character, she’s a good 
focal point for Deadpool’s attention and his moral compass.

Cullen Bunn knows how to write alternate takes on Deadpool. The dialogue is what
you expect from a Deadpool story. And much like the other book, it’s a quick, concise
read.

**Don’t forget, the [Krakoa Mutant Tracker](https://www.nyrdcast.com/2020/09/whos-on-krakoa-a-look-at-mutants-in-the-marvel-universe/)
is updated weekly as new books come to Marvel Unlimited (although it needs to be
updated right now).**
