Re: Book of the Month - December 2017
I thought Quantum and Woody #1 was great. I'll need to reread though before #2.
Bloodshot Salvation #4 was much deeper than I expected. Loved this as a standalone Rampage origin issue.
Ninja-k #2 was also very good. the art is superb and I'm really into the story.
My votes:
1) Bloodshot Salvation #4
2) Quantum and Woody #1
3) Ninja-K #2
Didn't read the others but will get XO and Eternity in trade.

Crap, I am seriously behind on my reading - I have only read Bloodshot #4 from last month! Time to get caught up.
Thanks for taking over the reigns on this tradition, jeremycoe - and big thanks to Keith for doing it for so long beforehand!

1] Ninja-K #2 - surprisingly picking this as my favourite (Ninjak is cool but not usually my fav. character). Really well written all-around with top notch art.
2] Bloodshot Salvation #4 - great art & story, just a tad too much time spent on a background story keeps it out of top spot for me.
3] Eternity #3 - continuing the craziness of the unknown cosmic entities in the Valiant U.
4] XO #10 - another big backstory issue. Good, but didn't feel entirely necessary.
5] Quantum & Woody #1 - not generally into these characters or their humour, but this book seems off to a good start (again).
6] Faith Winter Wonderland #1 - usual Faith story fair.

Re: Book of the Month - December 2017
This month's books were tough to choose between, but I chose Ninja-K #2 & Quantum & Woody #1. I enjoyed all the other books as well. HW II #0 will be a part of the poll for January, partly because I forgot and partly because the earliest many members could even get it was January.
