Gettin' some mainstream lovin': The Washington Times' Joseph Szadkowski previews Swamp Thing #1 (misidentified as an Antarctic Press book) and The Black Forest graphic novel, and sings the praises of a scene from The Ultimates #12:

"In Marvel Comics, Ultimates No. 12, a bloodstained battle between Captain America and the extraterrestrial Nazi named Kleiser culminates when the alien demands that the hero surrender, and a battered but furious Cap screamingly replies: 'You think this letter on my head stands for France?'

"Yep, makes me remember why I love the current age of comic books."
