Looking forward to the conclusion to Night of the Owls the most I think. But really excited for all of these books. I am loving the storyline right now in Batman and Robin (been a really good series), Minutemen has Darwyn Cook(book), Lord of Nightmares has DRACULA!, I’ve been waiting an extended week on Swamp Thing and Punk Rock Jesus has me intrigued. So yeah… I’m excited!
BQ- wish I could go
Huge week with 12 books for me.
I’m most excited for:
Lil’ Depressed Boy
Batman
Planetoid
Uncanny X-Force.
I’ll give The Massive a second go around this week but am close to dropping it. It didn’t live up to the hype last month.
BQ: Waiting for this site to snag some Remender, Hickman and Synder interviews!
Batman!!
BQ getting ready for a Video show. We will have one or two i hope. Gee i miss those. Why not choose a classic show from the past each week, take turns and put that on the Video pod cast slot.
Batman, The Shade, Minutemen, Uncanny X-Force and Bloodshot. BQ: nothing, unless you count preparing not being able to make it or preparing to be bummed out I’m missing it?
7 is a big week for me (There have been a lot of those lately)
Batgirl #11
Batman #11
Swamp Thing #11
Walking Dead #100
Fantastic Four Annual #33 (maybe)
Spider-Men #3
Uncanny X-Force #27 (Loving this)
BQ: In preparation I’ll be checking iFanboy every hour cause I live in South-Africa and won’t be able to make it. I really am dying to find out more about what’s to come from Marvel Now! I’m counting on you guys! (And you never do let me down.)
Might leave some of this until next week or the week after, since I’m picking up nothing then, but…
Ant-Man: Season One (HC)
Batgirl: The Darkest Reflection (HC)
Demon Knights: Seven Against the Dark (TP)
Fantastic Four by Hickman – Volume 5 (HC)
Parker: The Score (HC)
BQ: Constantly checking iFanboy, I guess. π
We have issue #100 for TWD and believe it or not it seems like it is going to give us something different for the first time in a long time, I for one am excited to read this issue! Of course this week I also get Suicide Squad, in my feeling this is the best title out there and is very underated; if your not reading it or you are looking for a good title to read this is the one, you will not be disappointed. I would suggest picking up the back issues first or the trade or both to get caught up because, this is just a great comic book. we also have Batman and Robin which has also been underated and Damian is about to head down the path I thought he would take and once he does I do not think there will be a return. The conclusion of the Court of Owls in Batman should be very good as well!! Just a fine week!!
