X-Factor #8 - The other Civil War tie-in I got this week guest-starred Quicksilver as well as Spider-Man, both of whom had pretty small roles. The next issue seems to be pretty Quicksilver-heavy, if the end of this issue is any indicator, but this particular issue was kind of dull, mostly having each character discuss their stance on Civil War.

Nextwave: Agents of H.A.T.E. #6 - This issue was pretty much just a series of wacky events and villains - plenty of action, but little of those cool moments and flashbacks that make the series a stand-out. C-

Ultimate Spider-Man #96 - I don't know if it was just me, but this issue seemed a little rushed and sloppy. As Patrick indicated, it was a lot of running around, screaming about vampires. Not much really happens to move the story forward, but it's a pretty action-packed issue. C
Runaways #17 - On the opposite side of the spectrum from Ultimate Spider-Man, the new issue of Runaways had a helluvalot going on. One more issue to go in the "Parental Guidance" arc, and...wait...did one of the runaways die at the end of this issue? Why does the next issue's cover say "One of these Runaways is about to die"? Was this a psyche-out? It looked like a death to me. It was who I thought would die...I guess we'll have to see if this runaway can dodge a bullet or not... B+
