NEW COMICS WEDNESDAY - FEBRUARY 1st

Well DC 52 enters its 6 month and still going strong.
The 2nd issue of Fatale ships along with a much needed 2nd print for the
first issue,maybe we'll see a little more of the horror side of this title
this time around.
Magic the Gathering is riding a new wave of popularity lately, so of
course its time to spin off into comic adventures...again.
2 more Warlord of Mars #1's this week. You think they'd catch on by now
that over-saturating the market kills the franchise every time.
Speaking of which...Marvel gives us another Captain America book as Bucky
starts his own title, the Winter Soldier.

FREE SHIRTS

Hey did you know that there is a new Ghost Rider movie coming out?  Well I do now, because I have a whole box of promotional t-shirts for Ghost Rider Spirit of Vengeance here in the store.
There's a couple different designs and 2 different colours.
Sizes are mostly smaller(NO XXL for instance).
Anyone who spends more than $10.00 gets to pick out one for FREE!
Quantities are limited of course.

NEW COMICS WEDNESDAY JANUARY 25th

See, now here's Justice League #5. I can't believe how many people got
upset at a 1 week delay. On the other hand, it shows how important keeping
a regular monthly schedule is.
I'm kinda surprised that the only first issues coming in are relatively
minor books. The Infestation crossover last year was different, but I
haven't had a lot of interest in the sequel.
Deadpool #49.1 is an odd numbering, maybe to stretch out the story before
the big 50th issue.

NEW COMICS WEDNESDAY JANUARY 18th

Lets see if this damn thing will post THIS week. I posted last weeks 5 times and it still wouldnt stay up. And it looks like I'll be leaving out any cover shots until I can figure out HOW IN HELL Blogger thinks this is a better system.

Good week, with something missing... it looks like we have the first casualty in the DC NEW 52 delivery schedule, and NO surprise, It's Justice League. Well 4 issues on time was more than most of us bet on, lets hope its not tooo delayed.
We get Batman and Wonder Woman though, so it should still be a busy Wednesday.
Steed and Mrs. Peel seems like an odd way to name your book, but I guess THE AVENGERS might have been a little confusing. I'm positive I've seen this cover art before, but all the preview text makes this sound like a new comic. Stiil its Grant Morrison and Ian Gibson, so it'll sell quick even if you arent a fan of the old t.v. show.
Lord of the Jungle is another odd title, but I guess they had problems with the TARZAN name for some reason. It's only a buck for the first issue, so cheap enough to try it out.

NEW COMICS WEDNESDAY - JANUARY 11th

Quite a few Marvel comics to mention as they attempt to overtake DC in the ratings.
HEY! An issue of Captain America...it's about time, I can't remember the last time they shipped an issue of Captain America.
Scarlet Spider #1 ships, bringing us back the days of the Spider-clones,that everybody liked but Marvel thought we didn't so they killed them all off.
Speaking of Spider-Man, #677 starts a crossover with Daredevil.
Wolverine #300 ships, I'm still not sure where Marvel is getting their numbers from, but they are sure screwing with the last of the collectors out there. (didn't they do a Wolverine #1000 last year?)
Luna brothers fans(Girls, Sword), may want to pick up Whispers, even though it seems to be one Luna short on the creative team. Definitely a different art style.

NEW COMICS WEDNESDAY JANUARY 4th

First shipment of 2012 looks pretty average.
The only NEW title to check out is Fatale. Brubaker gives us another crime comic...with a twist. Take a look at the alternate cover to see what I mean.
Marvel gives us a real blast from the past as they reprint the first issue of Strikeforce Moruturi, for a buck. Hoping to entice some people into picking up the paperback collection the week after. Not a bad strategy actually...IF they spaced it farther apart so we had some time to talk up the buck book.
The Avengers Annual continues the story from the New Avengers Annual, with Wonder Man going all crazy on his ex-team-mates.
Wolverine and the X-Men is only 2 months old and already has a spin-off mini-series!!! Alpha and Omega will give us a little more on Kid Omega. I'm guessing stuff that was too important to put in the main series.
Uncanny X-Force #19.1 starts off the return of Age of X.

DC Presents The Dark, reprints the first issues of some of the Vertigo style NEW 52 titles.

NEW COMICS WEDNESDAY - DECEMBER 28th

Pretty average for the last week of 2011, but thats probably for the best as most of you will
be broke from Boxing Day sales anyway. While you are enjoying your newfurniture and flat screens, heres what will be on the shelves here.

REMINDER... the books will arrive late on WEDNESDAY DECEMBER 28th, so
don't expect to get your fix before 2:00 p.m
.



Yes, Marvel, in their infinite wisdom thinks sending 3 Capt. America comics on THE SAME DAY, is a good idea. In my experience most people are just going to think they are the same book with different covers.
While the DC PRESENTS books are usually just nice reprints, the ELSEWORLDS issue arriving this week is basically NEW stuff. Its the comic that DC decided NOT to publish years ago due to the Kyle Baker Superbaby story where they show a baby in a microwave. I'm sure this story was the
inspiration for the babysitter piece in the Incredibles movie.
The 2nd part of the Archie meets Kiss story is in, the first issue moved slow up until this week when I suddenly got a ton of people looking for it.
