I ordered the second Bendis/Maleev Daredevil Omnibus and the first Brubaker/Lark Omnibus.  I also preordered the Inferno Crossovers Hardcover.  Sure I was disappointed, but not exactly surprised by the cancellations.  I would say that while the $25 is not necessary as such, I don't feel guilty about it given the size and wealth of Amazon.  However, I would chime in with the ...

JUst read this and it soes make for a great pick.  What stood out for me was the mystery.  I loved watching the dynamic duo actually investigate this, with Alfie's help.  It feels like the pieces will fit together and make for a satisfying whole, and I love the idea of all these descendants actually being Bruce himself.  Now that's comics!

Y'know, I have this feeling that Striker was the name of a comic strip about a football (soccer) player which they had in one of the tabloids here in the UK.  First they bought Miracleman, now.....

Not a week that's got anything out of the ordinary, but it's nice to see Daytripper and Ex Machina.  Not at all on board for another Superman crossover or the Justice League One shot.  Pick of the week could be quite tough. BQ: Absolutely without doubt Up In The Air.  A grown up comedy drama, incredibly well acted and written, with something to say not just about the recession ...

The quotes from JMS, especially about Superman, do sound kind of like the same thing we always hear at times like these.  I'm one who's grown to like the Robinson Superman, especially all the different characters he uses, along with the very nice Bernard Chang art lately.  I like Mon-El too.  And while I dropped Action early on, it was budgetary rather than because I hated it.&nb...

Saw this in previews and was sorely tempted.  It's the art that almost sold me as I looove me some Chaykin.  But I'm not a big enough Joe fan to take the leap.  I bought the Cobra TPB on the strength of all the buzz and wasn't disappointed, but I'd rather wait for the reaction and wait for the collection again.  Definitely looks promising tho'.

I hera that the reasoning behind the renumbering is down to the fact that you can't have a book that's five or more years old but still call it "New" Avengers.  However, I wonder if this kind of literal reasoning means they ought to call it New New Avengers or something.  Still, I don't really care as, with Immonen and Jessica, I-AM-THERE!

Girl Comics and Amazing Spiderman were my personal favourites.  I liked the design of Cinderella, but I'm not over keen on the painter's actual style.

I always think that the pick will be something at least on my radar...then I remember it's Ron who has the pick and, obviously, it ends up being a surprise.  Still, at least he always provides something different and unexpected.  Not finished my stack yet, but the stuff I've read so far has been a bit lacklustre (or downright grim i.e. Cry For Justice).  Thought N. was kind of in...

Saw Moving Pictures in the new Previews.  Looks gorgeous, with an interesting story to boot.
