    BQ: WILDCARD BITCHES!!!!!!

  18. BQ: Last man standing. But then my suitcase with a busted lock that’s full of cash would fall off the luggage cart, spilling its contents rather spectacularly. All because some lady’s little dog got loose on the tarmac.

  19. Looking forward to:
    Aquaman
    Batman, Inc.
    Justice League books
    Green Lantern books
    The Flash
    … and Comic Shop News #1353. I’ve been reading this free gem since it was in double digits. Why aren’t you?

    BQ: Driver. Because I’m that good.

    • I always grab a copy of Comic Shop News, even if most of it (due to sites like this :)) isn’t new anymore. Double digits, I don’t remember, but I believe it was triple digits in the 90s . . .

    • I used to read Comic Shop News every week but stopped in 2000 when they were just reprinting material that I had already read on Newsarama the week before. I don’t think I’ve even seen it in a comic book shop since then.

    • I had a friend, his Mom was from Ireland. You’d call looking for said friend, and she’d reply, “Paul’s working, why aren’t you?” Just a nostalgia trip……

  20. AQUAMAN #20
    STAR WARS LEGACY #3
    BATMAN THE DARK KNIGHT #20
    JUSTICE LEAGUE #20
    TALON #8 (looking forward to Sepulveda on art!)
    GI JOE COBRA FILES #2
    DAREDEVIL #26
    FANTASTIC FOUR #8
    IRON MAN #258.3

    BQ: Lookout….whatever gives me the least accountability….cause that’s just the kind of guy I am.

  21. Just Batman Inc.

    BQ: I’d be that asian guy who could make his way through laser alarms and kick some ass too.

  22. ALL-STAR WESTERN #20
    AQUAMAN #20
    AVENGERS #12
    BATMAN, INCORPORATED #11
    DEADPOOL #10
    FIVE GHOSTS: THE HAUNTING OF FABIAN GRAY #3
    GREEN LANTERN #20
    GREEN LANTERN: NEW GUARDIANS #20
    JUSTICE LEAGUE #20
    NOWHERE MEN #5
    THE SIXTH GUN #31

    BQ: The planner. Because I LOVE IT WHEN A PLAN COMES TOGETHER!

  23. Justice League
    Green Lantern
    Aquaman

    BQ: I’d be the guy who suggests we watch Jaws instead.

    Flash #20
    Green Lantern #20
    Green Team #1

    Mind Mgmt #11
    Young Avengers #8

    BQ: The guy that double crosses everyone. BWA HA HA

  25. Decent week for me, all great books, but I’m really excited for the double-size Daredevil.

    Daredevil: I’ll gladly fork over the extra buck for more pages from Waid and Samnee.
    F4: the annual Ben Grimm issue should be fun.
    The Massive: Wood has kept me engaged the whole time, conclusion to an arc should be interesting.
    Young Avengers: So glad I gave this a shot due to Ron’s glowing review, it has been fantastic.
    The Unwritten: Another conclusion to an arc, and the return of a forgotten baddie.

    My biggest problem will be deciding what to read first (Love having that problem).

    BQ: I’d be the one who find the least risky–but vital–role in the whole thing, like causing a scene so the security is distracted, or something equally as weenie level.

  26. Avatar photo ochsavidare (@ochsavidare) says:

    Really light week for me, just Avengers and Nowhere men.

    BQ: I would be the guy cracking under pressure when we’re caught, spilling the beans on the gang.

  27. Damsels #7
    Daredevil #26
    Fantastic Four #8
    Iron Man #258.3
    The Bounce #8
    Superior Spider-Man #10

    I would be the John Dortmunder of the group, no doubt (and anyone who gets that reference is automatically awesome)

  28. Superior Spider-man #10
    Scarlet Spider #17

    BQ: The distraction or the guy who dies/gets caught during the heist.

  29. It’s a good thing that next week is an “extra” week, as I’ll be spending my budget for both weeks this Wednesday . . .

    Most excited for Mind MGMT, Young Avengers, Nowhere Men & Unwritten.

    Also getting Sex, Masks (there’s a combo :)), Justice League, Justice League Dark, Batman Inc, Aquaman, Journey into Mystery & Daredevil. I will pick up part two of Booster Gold in All Star Western, but not this week . . .

    BQ: the guy who tries to keep the rest of the gang calm when things start snafuing . . .

  30. Aquaman #20, Batman Inc. #11, Green Lantern #20, Justice League #20 & The Bounce #1.

    BQ: The safe cracker.

  31. – Uncanny X-Men
    – Uncanny Avengers
    – Avengers
    – Young Avengers
    – Green Lantern
    – Green Lantern: New Guardians

  32. Aquaman
    Avengers
    Batman Incorporated
    Daredevil
    Deadpool
    Iron Man #258.3
    Justice League

    BQ: Not to make people hate me for referencing Dane Cook…..But I would be the guy who totally doesn’t have his shit together and the people in the gang know it. But they still bring me to the heist and eventually I snap and make everything worse.

  33. Man, it’s gonna be a tough week for me. Only three books, but all three are usually strong POTW contenders for me.

    ALL-STAR WESTERN #20
    DAREDEVIL #26
    YOUNG AVENGERS #5

    BQ: The cool customer/con man. Not the guy who puts the plan together mind you, but the buddy who keeps everyone together until the job is done.

    P.S. Was I the only one who read Iron Man #10 last week? Because seriously, Howard Stark can pull together a hell of a heist gang!

  34. Uncanny Avengers 8.1 UA
    Fearless Defenders UA
    Batman Inc
    DD
    Superior Spiderman
    Nowhere Men
    Revival
    SEX
    Bounce
    Lobster Johnson
    JLDark
    Young Avengers
    Scarlet Spider
    Five Ghosts
    Masks

    So much for a light week but Lobsters a one-shot, cpl are minis that are almost over, cpl are series I’m dropping soon, 1 is only there as a tie in, 1 is new and I’m giving Scarlet Spider a chance again after talking to Stegman this weekend (who showed me an awesome upcoming cover for it in blk n white I wish he had for sale) here at the Motor City Comic-Con, and I already love Venom, getting into Superior Spiderman since #6 AU tie-in , so I’d like to have the Spider world back.

    BQ: Sniper (lookout) or ninja.

  35. Big week for me but most looking forward to Journey Into Mystery, Nowhere Men and the Massive. Three great books.
    BQ; The guy who fucks everything up.

  36. I’d distract people with my beauty.

  37. Trekker returns in Dark Horse Presents…and that is all the people need to know.

  38. Just Justice League and Superior Spider-Man, this week!

  39. Daredevil #26 and Avengers #12 for me this week.

    BQ: I’ll give the modivational speech to remind everyone what we are after.

  40. After a couple of slow weeks here’s a big one for me:
    Aquaman
    Batman TDK
    GL
    GL New Guardians
    Masks
    Red Lanterns
    Scarlet Spider
    The Flash
    Uncanny Avengers AU
    and Uncanny X-Men
    Can’t wait for work to be over Aaaaaarrgghhh!!!!!

    B.Q. You wouldn’t want me on any heist team…get that light in my face and I’m telling on everyone.
