Angel: Revelations #2, Avengers Fairy Tales #3, Secret Invasion: Runaways / Young Avengers #1, Thunderbolts #121 and X-Men: First Class #13 weren't so fondly reviewed this week. Okay, one of them was. But the other four, not so much.

In this very special episode of Dread Media, Brother D from Mail Order Zombie joins Desmond Reddick to run through their top five best, worst and most desired remakes in the horror genre.

In "Never Fear" Batman nearly murders the newly redesigned Scarecrow, and Superman has the chance to wed a queen in "Warrior Queen" -- but neither man pulls the trigger, so to speak. The Joker is duped in "Joker's Millions," leading to his attempted suicide. "Apokolips... Now!" sees the shocking death of a major character. And Robin comes to realize that the good guys can't always win in "Growing Pains."
