Pete Kilmer has been in the comics retail industry for ten years as a member of Downtown Comics in Indianapolis. Downtown Comics is one of the Midwest's largest comic retailers with over four locations in Indianapolis. All opinions are his own, and they cannot be bought with free swag. Beer and a walk on role on Burn Notice to steal Fiona from Michael Weston and I'm a bought man.
X-Men First Class hits theaters this weekend, and early critical response is quite positive. Time will tell if this origin story can match what the original films did. New comic books this week include Superman Infestation, Fathom Primer, and several Flashpoint books from DC (Green Lantern, Batman, Secret Seven and more).
