JUSTICE LEAGUE #12
WOLVERINE AND THE X-MEN #15
STAR TREK: THE NEXT GENERATION / DOCTOR WHO: ASSIMILATION2 #4
I hope they have the Aquaman #12 Variant.
BQ: Muenster!!!!
Piave, no question.
Light week for me. Finishing the Diablo mini and Deadworld mini, TMNT, and X-O. Looking forward to X-O probably the most.
I also love a good Fontinella and Baita Friuli
X-O has been amazing so far, Valiant Is killing it right now
I forgot a couple! And the bittersweet ending to Valen! I think this is one of the biggest travesties in comics of recent memory, the general comic-reading audience got it wrong on this book. A shame.
DEBRIS #2
GI JOE / TRANSFORMERS TP VOL 01
GI JOE FIELD MANUAL SC VOL 01
MUDMAN #5
VALEN OUTCAST #8
X-O has really been enjoyable. I actually went and sliced a piece of Piave because of this post. Well done iFanboy!
Some great stuff this week
X-O MANOWAR #4
JUSTICE LEAGUE #12
GREEN LANTERN ANNUAL #1
AQUAMAN #12
BQ-brie cause I’m classy like that
BQ: For sandwiches it’s gotta be pepper jack, but for just munching on with crackers i like pretty much anything
Justice League #12
Flash Annual #1
In ABC order…
AQUAMAN #12
AVENGING SPIDER-MAN #11
AXE COP: PRESIDENT OF THE WORLD #2
BEFORE WATCHMEN: MINUTEMEN #3
GREEN LANTERN ANNUAL #1
JUSTICE LEAGUE #12
JUSTICE LEAGUE INTERNATIONAL ANNUAL #1
LOCKE & KEY: GRINDHOUSE
THE FLASH ANNUAL #1
Don’t know how I can make a pick of the week decision with both Axe Cop and Locke & Key in the same week.
Looks like quite an eventful week…that new Gambit book is out, after all! (All kidding aside, that book’s 1st issue was pretty enjoyable).
BQ: WOW. WHAT a loaded question. Do you mean spreadable cheese? Table cheese? Cheese for sandwiches? Cheese to just snack on?? I feel I have way too many sub categories for a favorite cheese. But yeah, if I were FORCED to pick one…it would probably be a smoked variety of cheddar or gouda. Feta cheese is also great to munch on, and is even better when you bake it a little.
Going to go with an aged gouda, as old as possible, but I’ll take pretty much anything. Had a wine and cheese party this weekend and snacked on tons of glorious cheese!
B.Q. Oka.
Quebec represent!
Did not think anyone would know that!
Most certainly annoyed that Manhattan Projects has been put back a month, not good signs!
But other than that got FF, Green Lantern annual & American Vampire out.
BQ-Camembert!
And Secret… Where the hell is Secret #3?
I’ve given up on that coming out this year, I rather be pleasantly surprised on that one!
Just Detective Comics Annual #1 for me.
BQ: Pepper Jack by far.
Pretty medium week this week.
BQ: Gotta go with Mozzarella, just the many ways you can use it.
BQ: I’d say Goat Gouda by a pretty far margin.
drool.
that’s a good one.
Good week. Looking forward to JL, W&TXM, and UXF.
BQ: Pepper Jack or Provolone.
….that’s a different picture for this post. MY WORLD IS IN UPHEAVAL!
Lame week for me. Just TMNT: April. I’m actually thinking about dropping the TMNT. It’s just not that enjoyable. Thinking about picking up Lil’ Homer. Simpsons books are usually pretty entertaining.
BQ: Yellow American. One of my favorite foods in the world is a grilled cheese, gotta be yellow american.
Annuals make this one expensive week (for me anyway)!!
AMERICAN VAMPIRE #30
AQUAMAN #12
BEFORE WATCHMEN: MINUTEMEN #3
GREEN LANTERN ANNUAL #1
GRIM LEAPER #4
JUSTICE LEAGUE #12
SUPERMAN ANNUAL #1
BQ: Fresh mozzarella
A lot of good stuff for me this week. I’m giving Gambit one more shot to wow me, I was a little underwhelmed by the first issue and the art was not my cup of tea.
American Vampire- So far so good with the Blacklist storyline, Pearl and Skinner really are the best.
BPRD- New storyline, and a new “Year of the Monsters” variant by Mignola, Yay!
BW: Minutemen- First two issues were amazing, Darwyn can do no wrong.
Gambit- On a tight leash, but I want to like it, so we’ll see.
Popeye- This has been a real treat since issue #1, this round is all Landridge, and I’m excited.
Spaceman- Finally get to read this, I’ve been stashing the issues since #5 to read all at once. I just couldn’t pass up those Dave Johnson covers, and I wanted to support Vertigo, Azz, and Risso for doing something cool and different.
Winter Soldier- This has been an awesome book, love Bucky and Natasha, love SHIELD covert ops, I’ll miss Bru when he leaves, but the characters will keep me around.
BQ: That’s a tough one, I love cheese. I’ll cheat and go top three, in no particular order: Iberico(Spain), Comte(France), and Dubliner(Guess).
Edit**
Calling myself out, Popeye #4 is not all LanDridge, but LANGRIDGE, and it is awesome.
American Mutha Truckers!!!!!
Oh yea, here’s my pull list. I got distracted by my cheese battle cry.
THE SIXTH GUN #24
AVENGING SPIDER-MAN #11
THE NEW DEADWARDIANS #6
PHANTOM LADY #1
JUSTICE LEAGUE INTERNATIONAL ANNUAL #1
JUSTICE LEAGUE #12
THE FLASH ANNUAL #1
GREEN LANTERN ANNUAL #1
DETECTIVE COMICS ANNUAL #1
AQUAMAN #12
AMERICAN VAMPIRE #30
Also of note, I’ve decided that I’m clicking the “pull” button whether I’m getting the print, the digital or waiting for the trade. If I support a book and the artists working on it with my bucks, then the format doesn’t matter to me. American Vampire I’ve been reading the hard covers and I love it. Deadwardians and Sixth Gun has been digital for me. I actually read all the Sixth Gun back issues on my iPad and I’m sticking with that format for the title. And everyone should be ready Deadwardians!
Only 6 books this week. As always, super excited for some more BPRD and Prophet. Also figured I’d give Locke & Key: Grindhouse a shot, even though I read Locke & Key in trade and I’m 2 trades behind.
BQ: The kind that doesn’t smell like bad feet.
Dang you DC with your Annuals that actually matter! I would much rather have a Marvel Annual thats a one-shot I can ignore lol
Remender, Hickman, Brubaker, and Aaron with a side of X-O Manowar and Prophet. Its going to be a good week. Slightly excited for the 3 DC books I’m pulling too,

Bit of a Geoff Johns-fest, this week. Justice League is the title that’s “wobbling” . . . waiting to see if the kickstart to Trinity War grabs me.
Was one of the few who really enjoyed Freedom Fighters, so am looking forward to read what Gray & Palmiotti have cooked up, with this new Phantom Lady treatment.
BQ : Saga, a rich, creamy, soft Danish blue. Along with being the name of my fave comic of this year. . . . . . probably.
The Sixth Gun’s #24. New arc start.
Plus X-O and lotsa Marvel.
BQ: Italian Montasio. Fresh or aged, you just can’t go wrong.
Not much this week.
Minutemen #3
New Deadwardians #6
maybe Axe Cop #2
I’ll take an extra sharp cheddar.

BQ: I do not like cheese. I like ham though.
Light week 🙁 Dominique Laveau: Voodoo Child #6 and Godzilla #4.
Justice league
Aquaman
Green lantern annual
BQ: Canadian mature cheddar for me.
Just e Flash annual, JLI Annual and FF for me. Dropped Justice League, as I felt the Super Friends cartoon had better depth of characterization than the current justice league comic.
BQ: the big red cheese, Captain Marvel!!!
Ok, actually mozzarella.
Is the diamond previews catalogue coming out this week?
https://ifanboy.com/comics/previews-september-2012-288/
Nice week for me. Expensive, but nice.
Comic. $AUD
Uncanny X-Force #30 $8.00
Wolverine and the X-Men #15 $8.00
Detective Comics Annual #1. $10.00
Gambit #2 $6.00
Interesting. Is the exchange rate more favorable on digital comics?
Oh, much. With the exchange rate, I can get books digitally for less than the US cover price. I’m stubborn about getting the books I really want from my LCS, though.
I don’t want to come off a complete nutter, so I’d better explain a bit!
It’s important to me that I support the shop, it’s the only one in my town and is a great labour of love. I also absolutely love having and collecting the physical issues of books. I do. That said, I’m delving into digital, getting a couple Marvel titles digitally with the app. The free digital copies sold me on it, frankly.
No, that’s not nutty at all. While I find myself liking digital comics more and more and disliking the growing collection of paper in my guest bedroom closet, I have an awesome LCS in my neighborhood that I like supporting. I redeem the Marvel digital codes that come in the books (my store says they get some type of incentive when those codes are redeemed) and I love the Comixology 99 cent sales. The Bundles on the Dark Horse App are also a pretty good deal.
Always looking forward to more Prophet, but am terribly displeased with the price hike. It is worth it, though.
BQ: Nutty, sharp, aged cheddar. I’m also a sucker for smelly, moldy blue cheese.
This is a big week for me…
AQUAMAN #12
AVX: VS. #5
