Comments
12 books again for me. All of this good writing is killing me :P
BQ: I'd go for the DCU, even with the zombies running around. The other option being Tolkien's universe, I loves me some fantasy.
Posted by jstump on 09/08/09 at 02:24 PMI would live in the Top Ten universe. It would be crazy and hectic and amazing.
Plus, it'd be cool to see a drunken 100 foot monster wobble his way across the city, just as long as he didn't step on my apartment building!

BQ: Wonderland.
Posted by kwisdumb on 09/08/09 at 02:32 PMHuge week, 13 books. Looking forward to BPRD and Adventure Comics most
BQ: DCU Opal City, or living in the Scott Pilgrim universe
Posted by RandoCalrissian on 09/08/09 at 02:32 PM@PaulMontgomery : Is that the universe with Witches or large men who answer to the name "Bubba".
Posted by AmirCat on 09/08/09 at 02:32 PMman this is a great great week, GLC, ASM and ultimate avengers plus red robin and a slew of other stuff
BQ: Star Trek - the new continuity or the Marvel Universe
Posted by RoiVampire on 09/08/09 at 02:32 PMBQ: Star Trek; good god put me on the bridge of a starship.
Posted by hbkhumanity on 09/08/09 at 02:34 PMJust got five comics this week. For me, that's a lot.
BQ: The original Godzilla universe. I'd hang out with Godzilla Junior.
Posted by JeffR on 09/08/09 at 02:38 PMI will believe that Kick Ass is out this week when I am holding it in my hands. I'm pretty excited for the Ultimate Avengers book though!
BQ: Star Trek. Really anything set in the future where I can live on a colony in space.
Posted by Avenger117 on 09/08/09 at 02:43 PMBQ: the paul dni dc animated universe
Posted by oldmanlogan88 on 09/08/09 at 02:43 PMI just love that Wednesday Comics is coming out on a Thursday.

Green Lantern Corps #40
Hellboy the Wild Hunt #6
Incredible Hercules #134
Punisher: Frank Castle MAX #74
W....Thursday Comics #10
Special Guests: Marvel 1602 HC and Mystic Comics 70th Anniversary (maybe, like Craig Ferguson it could be pushed off until later)
BQ: I second for the Simpsons Universe
Posted by TheNextChampion on 09/08/09 at 02:50 PMBQ: Star Wars. Because most natural laws of physics don't apply.
Posted by vadamowens on 09/08/09 at 02:52 PMAAAArrrrggg!!! I wont be able to get my comics till friday! stupid labor day! The comics I'm most excited for are Adventure Comics(can't wait), Wednesday Comics, DMZ, Blackest Night: Batman, Muppet Robin Hood, Unwritten and Superman W.O.N.K.
BQ: Mid-World/Dark Tower-verse. That way i could visit all universes(if i could get to that damned tower). That or Imagination Land
Posted by WinTheWonderboy on 09/08/09 at 02:56 PM13 books and a hardcover - lots to read this week.
BQ - Since we each define our own realities, I think that many people of the comic-reading persuasion already DO live in their preferred universe. Oh, and I'll second Rando Calrissian - I did live in the Scott Pilgrim universe in my early twenties. Scarily so sometimes.
Posted by Crippler on 09/08/09 at 02:58 PM8 books for me, which is too many for my poor wallet. Looking forward to Bprd, hellboy, the list, kickass, marvels project, and ultimate avengers. Gonna give Nomad a shot, the previews looked interesting enough.
BQ: I'm gonna say Y: the last man universe for reasons I will tell you when your older.
Posted by shenanigans on 09/08/09 at 03:00 PMBQ: The Pokemon universe. People don't seem to have to carry real jobs there, all they do is play with pokemon. And there's no real conflict other than pokemon conflict.

Posted by muddi900 on 09/08/09 at 03:13 PM@shenanigans excuse me if i'm wrong in thinking you were born with testicles, and that you are of the male sex, but if you were in the Y universe wouldn't you be dead.
@jag2004-Fuck yeah. Nice choice, Pokemon kick ass.
Looking forward to World of New Krypton and Secret Six. Also plan on picking up the latest Gotham Central hardcover later on this month. Might check out Ultimate Avengers, give it another shot perhaps.
BQ: The Twitterverse
Posted by drakedangerz on 09/08/09 at 03:20 PMNice, medium-size week with some promising books - Blackest Night, Avengers The List, Ultimates (yes, I called it Ultimates), Marvels Project, KICK_ASS, Amazing Spider-Man with that DICK Chameleon, Punisher Max (this Bayou stoy has been great, fun Punisher), Unwritten. Lots of good reads.
BQ: Extras, because you know that Big Brother rant at the end would be the biggest YouTube sensation ever.
Posted by Dan on 09/08/09 at 03:24 PMBQ: The Doctor Who universe, because I could seriously use a TARDIS right about now.
Posted by WonderAli on 09/08/09 at 03:32 PM11 books! I'm really looking forward to ASM, Kick-Ass (if it comes out), and Green Lantern Corps.
BQ: the Futurama universe. Where else would I find a cure from my crippling bone-itis?
Posted by fleaman on 09/08/09 at 03:35 PMAmazing Spider-Man, Superman: WoNK, Unwritten, and Wednesday Comics for me.
BQ: Definitely Star Trek. Preferrably during the original series, but I'd settle for the Wrath of Khan era.
Posted by BrianBaer on 09/08/09 at 03:51 PMPretty steady week for me. I haven't had any huge ones and really no slow weeks for me. Something always catches my eye.
BQ: I'd say the Star Wars universe. I want to be a freaking Jedi!
Posted by SteenAR on 09/08/09 at 04:18 PM8 comics and 1 Hardcover Gotham Central book. This is gonna be a great week!
BQ:Star Trek
Posted by Dez on 09/08/09 at 04:36 PMBQ - I shall continue with the love for Star Trek. But with my luck and to paraphrase McCoy "I'll get a freighter."
Posted by DarthDuck on 09/08/09 at 04:39 PMBig week for me , most looking forward to BPRD, Marvels Project and War Of Kings
BQ: Oooh, tough one...I would plump for either the world of a 60s spy movie or Tony Harris's deco Opal City.
Posted by odare77 on 09/08/09 at 04:41 PM17 books ffffffffffffffffffffff
Posted by skeets on 09/08/09 at 04:50 PMBQ: I've thought about this for years and I still can't decide, I think maybe Futurama just to get that sandwhich with the worms that made Fry craxy buff and smart or in Eureka.
Maybe just the DCU.
Posted by Heroville on 09/08/09 at 05:04 PMModels Inc. #1 from Marvel was left off the list. It's supposed to be in stores Thurs.
Posted by KickAss on 09/08/09 at 05:11 PMBQ: college.
Posted by Bedhead on 09/08/09 at 05:15 PMlooking forward to the conclusion of Utopia, The List Avengers one shot, Marvels Project, and Max Punisher
BQ: Criminal, because all the women are babes
Posted by ABirdseysView on 09/08/09 at 05:28 PMOh man, 11 books. This whole "only buy $25 worth of comics a week" deal that I worked out with my wife is getting harder. Something needs to start sucking...and soon. I'm looking forward to the Hellboy-verse books, Doom Patrol, GLC, Realm of Kings, and Adventure Comics. This should be a pretty great week.
BQ: Earth 36? Which one was that again?
Posted by Neb on 09/08/09 at 05:40 PMYou forgot about MAYHEM
Posted by jisrael on 09/08/09 at 05:43 PMGreen Lantern Corps
Blackest Night: Batman
Amazing Spider-Man
Red Robin
Adventure Comics
and perhaps, The List: Avengers
BQ: me three for The Simpsons
Posted by crazychris on 09/08/09 at 05:47 PM12 books all dc or marvel , thats unusual actually
havent got the unwritten on my pull list this week as i was going to drop it but going to go back and read the first 4, might decide to keep going with it we shall see, i like it but not crazy about it, i have high standards
i think jessica fletcher in murder she wrote is the universe for me, anywhere a charming mystery writer is taken into the confidence of law enforcement around the world is my kind of town

Posted by markfg on 09/08/09 at 05:54 PMMODELS INC. isn't on Diamond's list for this week which is where our list comes from. Sometimes they make mistakes and leave things off. We'll look into it.
Posted by conor on 09/08/09 at 05:59 PMAnother small week for me. Still excited about the Blackest Night titles, and I"m hoping Adventure Comics stays awesome. I'm also still looking forward to X-Men Forever, but please don't tell anyone but Ron about that.
BQ: The universe inside that autistic boy's head. You know, TV land.
Posted by akamuu on 09/08/09 at 06:37 PMSecret Six, Red Robin, Advedture Comics, Wednesday Comics, Booster Gold for sure and
a few others I plan on checking out at the shop
(like the Hulk one shot and the Shield thanks to Kwisdumb, I like JSA Vs KOBRA).
BQ I would live on LOST, even though it would be hard at times,
if I were to die I would not be dead, second chances rule.
Speaking of undead, it would be cool to live in ZombieNation,
as a zombie killer not as a zombie.
Posted by Reform on 09/08/09 at 06:42 PMBQ: the harry potter universe. hogwartz is still the school i wanted to go to, if not i agree with@wonderali i agree i could really need a tardis too
Posted by cyberauron on 09/08/09 at 07:58 PMWhy are all the books I like $4, all of a sudden? Oh, God, I'm turning into that person.
BQ: I've always wanted to live in the world where Cameron Crowe's movies take place. Well, not Vanilla Sky, but the others. People are fun and just a little bit nicer than reality and have good taste in music.
Posted by ohcaroline on 09/08/09 at 08:01 PMJust Wednesday Comics and Soulfire 0 for me this week.
BQ: I think it'd be cool to live in the Dune universe. Not to live on Arrakis specifically (I'm not a fan of hot weather), but because I'd want to be Bene Gesserit. Or the Doctor Whoniverse, but only if I got to be the companion.
Posted by jessidee on 09/08/09 at 08:37 PMI've been catching up with DMZ in trades.I'm liking it a lot.I might go crazy and buy some recent back issues to catch up with reading it monthly.
BQ: Not sure why Paul would like to spend time in a brutal prison but I guess I'll go for Oz too, maybe as a warden so I can try to keep him from getting shivved.He meant what? oh....
Posted by Fugmo on 09/08/09 at 09:04 PMMost excited for everything on my freakin' pull list, even Thunderbolts.
BQ: Star Trek: TNG. I cannot think of a better utopia to live in. :)
Posted by Diabhol on 09/08/09 at 09:51 PM
Only 7 books. Thank God. Most looking forward to Amazing Spider-Man!
BQ: I want to live in whatever world Pixar movies take place in.
Posted by JohnVFerrigno on 09/08/09 at 11:45 PMamazing spiderman, marvels project, kick ass, utopia x men/dark avengers conclusion, blackest night batman, the list avengers, and secret six!!! 7 books most i had in awhile....Looking forward to kick ass!!!
Posted by hellblazer101 on 09/08/09 at 11:57 PM@adickhead Ya but the question was where would you live, hence I would be alive ha. actually I didn't think about when I wrote it. But I still want it the Y universe, I could be a clone.
Posted by shenanigans on 09/09/09 at 12:02 AMSecret Six #13, Wednesday Comics #10, Models Inc #1 (if it ships), Vampirella: Second Coming #1 (Suydam cover), Love & Rockets: New Stories #2 and James Robinson's Complete WildCATs TPB for me.
BQ: Ummm... I don't know. Maybe the Oafiverse from Ed Luce's Wuvable Oaf comic. Because then I would be cute, sexy, funny and totally adorable.
Posted by kenkneisel on 09/09/09 at 12:35 AMDid somebody say hell boy?
BQ: I would love to live in the DiC cartoon Universe.
Posted by ato220 on 09/09/09 at 07:54 AMAdventure Comics #2

Dark Reign List Avengers One Shot
Green Lantern Corps #40
Red Robin #4
Ultimate Comics Avengers #2
War Of Kings Who Will Rule One-Shot
Wednesday Comics #10 (OF 12)
BQ: Star Trek would probably be the most beneficial but I'd go with Heroes. The show sucks now but the idea of super powers emerging in the real world setting is still awesome.
Marvels project, ultimate avengers, hellboy, an adventure comics.
Bq: the Johnny quest world. Or a world where Jurassic park didn't go all wonky and the dinosaurs ate a bunch of people.
BQ: I just thought of another one. What about the Truman Show universe? If you knew what it was, you could really fuck shit up.
Posted by crazychris on 09/09/09 at 11:59 AMAstro City. For sure.
Posted by StarSapphire on 09/09/09 at 01:23 PMASM 604, War of Kings One Shot, Dark Avengers Xmen Utopia Exodus, Blackest Night Batman 2, Green Lantern Corps, Unwritten 5, and possibly Adventure Comics 1 and 2. This is a nice week for me. I won't be overwhelmed with books. I am trying to limit myself to books I enjoy the most. Basically, if I kept leaving a book at the bottom of my stack I knew I wasn't enjoying it anymore.
BQ: I'd love to live @ Hogwards just to say "wingardium leviosa!"
Posted by RocketRacoon on 09/09/09 at 02:30 PMMODEL'S INC #1 has been added to the comics page.

Posted by conor on 09/09/09 at 02:59 PMHmm. Looks like it will be an okay week of books.
finally Kick-ass #7 came out. I forgot about that book
Posted by Bryce31 on 09/09/09 at 05:15 PMI'd kind of like to live in the Tick's city. Higher chance of amusement, lower chance of death. I'd just be sure not to live on a top floor.
Posted by Aalbatr0ss on 09/10/09 at 08:42 AMDamn, it's Ron's week and I forgot that X-Men: Forever comes out this week. I shutter to think what the pick might be :P
Posted by drakedangerz on 09/10/09 at 02:52 PMI was about to say what the pool is on it being an X-book this week.
Posted by redlibertyx on 09/11/09 at 01:13 AM


Just a Green Lantern Corps for me.
BQ: I would live in the Simpson's Universe
Posted by Simmons on 09/08/09 at 02:19 PM
