This week's pick puts the "comic" in comic book. Avenging Spider-Man #13 is flippin' hilarious. One word (hyphenated): Hypno-Hustler! Additionally, this issue is a continuation of a team-up between Spidey and Deadpool. Deadpool is funny enough, but the addition of a C-list supervillain that hasn't been seen since the disco era is a formula for laugh out loud hilarity. This issue puts the funny back in funny books. One of the best scenes in the comic has Spidey trying to figure out the trigger word to keep Deadpool from killing him: Ryan Reynolds. Just classic.
After a serious year of reading all the Avengers vs. X-Men and various tie-ins, it was really nice to read a comic and smile. Pick up a copy of Avenging Spider-Man #13 at your local comic book shop or digitally at www.comixology.com.
