Yeah, that damn holiday delayed shipments a day. So, what'd ya get?

I'll type my list up later..

Next week's books will be delayed also.

Not much for me this week. Justice #9, Ultimate Fantastic Four, Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe and a couple other things that I can't recall. Once again I leafed through 52, and while it's looking better now that the "mad scientists on the island" story has disappeared, it still feels very disjointed. Especially the Luthor / Clark Kent scene, which came out of nowhere.

haven't read any yet, so there won't be any spoilers...

wolfskin #2 - One reason, and one reason only that i'm getting this book - Juan Jose Ryp.

cyberforce/x-men #1 - No expectations for this. Heck, I don't even remember who the hell's in Cyberforce.

winter soldier: winter kills #1 - Same team as Cap. Can't believe they actually brought Bucky back and made it work. Should be good.

what if? featuring x-men: deadly genesis - Generally like "What If...?" books. Not so sure about this.

justice #9 - One of the best drawn books that i'm buying, but not reading.

astonishing x-men #19 - ANYTHING'S got to be an improvement over last issue. ...right?

batman #661 - Haven't read this since Morrison/Lee's last issue, but there's been overwhelming praise here for this arc, so it should be good.

detective comics #827 - Love these covers. Dini's been okay..

flash #7 - Was I spoiled by Johns? I think so. This has been terrible so far.

jsa classified #20 - Haven't read the other 19. One of these days i'm going to have to find 'em and read 'em.

what if? featuring x-men: age of apocalypse - See "What If?" comments above...

uncle sam and the freedom fighters #6 - I've liked this book. Like the art too.

heroes for hire #5 - I was ready to drop this book once Tucci left, but i'm still liking the art and Misty is damn sexy.

x-men #194 - I swear. If Rogue wasn't in this book... Ah, who'm I kidding.

wolverine origins #9 - I like Dillon, but Way seems to try his damnedest to be Garth Ennis and I wasn't pleased with some of the things he did with Wolvie.

superman/batman #31 - Haven't been reading this arc, but Van Sciver's covers look great. Wish they could have one artist per arc.

supergirl + powerboy! #13 - Wish they could have at least one storyline that makes sense.

jla #5 - Not really sure how I feel about Grundy being the main bad guy, but i'm liking the book so far.

52 #34 - Brian Bolland doing Zatanna!

Got the Marvel Zombies Hardback Graphic Novel.

Did Savage Dragon Archives V1 get released this week?

I was going to order it off Amazon but it's still showing as a preorder for the 28th, so I don't know what's up with it.

justice #9 - One of the best drawn books that i'm buying, but not reading.

Just curious. Are you not reading this because you don't want to or are you just waiting for the last issue to come?

At the LCS, yes.

I'm not sure about the online sites though.

Amazon often lists street dates a few weeks after they show up in the LCS. Sometimes they come in stock a little before that date, but not that much earlier.

Dang, I wish I'd read this thread before starting a new one on Savage Dragon.

There's always the "delete" option.


I just find it odd that Instocktrades.com doesn't have it, they always seem to have new trades the week they come out.

Yeah, but we have the subforum so why not use it?

I got the Don Rosa Life of Scrooge McDuck as a gift. Looking forward to it.

Haven't had a chance to read much, but here is what I picked up yesterday. . .

100 BULLETS VOL 10 DECAYED TP - 1 of only 2 on-going series that I only read in trade format. As good as any comic ever published.

52 WEEK #34 - Unlike everyone else, I'm still diggin' this book every single week.

ASTONISHING X-MEN #19 - I agree w/ Rogue, thought last issue sucked. In fact, this entire series is dreadfully overrated IMO.

BATMAN #661

BATMAN AND THE MAD MONK #5 - Man, when the movie came out it seemed like everyone & their mother was the biggest Batman fan. Now one of the best Batman renditions EVER with these two mini-series & nobody seems to be checking it out.

BLACK PANTHER #23 - After really hating this series when it first started, I've actually liked the book since the marriage. I'm just so sick of all this CW crap though, I want all these books to get back to their own damn stories.

BOYS #6 - Damn this books is so many different kinds of awesome.

CROSSING MIDNIGHT #2 - Thought the first issue was pretty solid, great last page. Love books like this that are just unlike anything else out there.

DAREDEVIL #92 - Best superhero book Marvel publishes. Brubaker is my idol.

DETECTIVE COMICS #827

FLASH THE FASTEST MAN ALIVE #7

HAWKGIRL #59

HEROES FOR HIRE #5 - A guilty pleasure book, I'm sure it will be cancelled soon anyway.

IMMORTAL IRON FIST #2 - Will probably finish out the story-arc, but the first issue wasn't that great.

JACK OF FABLES #6 - Haven't even had a chance to read a single issue yet, but I'm sure it will be great.

JSA CLASSIFIED #20

JUSTICE LEAGUE OF AMERICA #5 -Been diggin' every single panel of the relaunch.

KABUKI REFLECTIONS #7

LOVELESS #14 - Everyone go & check out the trade, such an underrated book.

NEXTWAVE AGENTS OF HATE #11

STAR WARS KNIGHTS OF THE OLD REPUBLIC #11

SUPERGIRL #13

SUPERGIRL AND THE LEGION OF SUPER HEROES #25

SUPERMAN BATMAN #31

USAGI YOJIMBO #99 - Best comic book EVER & I swear I'm the only person in the world that reads this series. Can't wait for the big 100

WINTER SOLDIER WINTER KILLS ONE SHOT - Can't wait to read this.

WOLVERINE ORIGINS #9 - I actually have been really diggin' this book.

X-MEN #194

I mentioned in a while back in the monthly comics thread, but no one seemed to take notice so I'll say it again.

No one does Batman better than Matt Wagner!

Loved his Batman/Grendel crossovers.
