Comic Books Comic Books Should Be Pretty.

Hot damn! Look at these!
- Via Comics Alliance.
Those are gorgeous—and it's a good bet that the stuff inside won't be too shabby, either. I've only read the first trade of Matt Fraction's Invincible Iron Man so far, but if that arc is a fair representation of the series' quality—and reports indicate that it is—then it's likely one of the best superhero books on the shelves right now. My favorite thing about what Fraction's done with Tony Stark is that he's kept the mai—sorry, I can't even stay on topic. Look at those covers!
In less aesthetically pleasing comics news, Comic-Con 2010 is already starting to sell out. Fellow comic book geeks, feel free to commence your gnashing of teeth, your cursing of Twilighters, etc.
