Shopping List: 7/11/07

[torippu]

It's a slow day at work so I've spent the better part of the afternoon thinking about what few books I am going to buy on Wednesday...

DARK HORSE COMICS
BPRD GARDEN OF SOULS #5 (OF 5) $2.99 - Self-trading works! Now I can finally read this story in one sitting.
STAR WARS LEGACY #14 $2.99 - still need to read #13

DC COMICS
GREEN LANTERN #21 $2.99 - According to the DC website, the variant cover is by Andy Kubert - think I'll pass in favor of the Ivan Reis standard one.

MARVEL COMICS
NEW AVENGERS #32 $2.99 - First book I read this week.
OMEGA FLIGHT #4 CWI (OF 5) $2.99 - greatly enjoying this mini.

Waiting for Trade
100 BULLETS

Gets ye ol' flip test in the store
STEPHEN COLBERTS TEK JANSEN #1 (OF 5) (MR) $3.99

Trip

DC COMICS - Bill Willingham week for me
Fables #63, $2.99
Shadowpact #15, $2.99

IMAGE COMICS
Freshmen Vol 2 #6, $3.99

MARVEL COMICS
Deadpool GLI Summer Fun Spectacular, $3.99
Exiles #96, $2.99 - find myself not enjoying Claremont's run on this as much - I know he loves Psylocke, but the book quickly turned into PSYLOCKE AND THE EXILES - was the book selling that bad that a complete change was needed?
New Avengers #32, $2.99
New Excalibur #21, $2.99 - same lack of Claremont momentum for me as Exiles - I like Pete Wisdom - Nocturne was interesting until her stroke - I still do not understand why that storypoint was introduced
Nova #4, $2.99
Punisher War Journal #9 CWI, $2.99 - Olivetti's photo realistic art just not doing it for me on this book - might be better suited to a more lighter toned book
Sub-Mariner #2 CWI (of 6), $2.99 - 1st issue was OK - worth at least picking up the 2nd issue
X-Factor #21, $2.99

[De Carabas]

Clubbing--I could pretend this for Patricia, but I'd be lying.
Elric: Making of a Sorcerer TP--Never read a single Elric story/comic, but this seemed a good place to start.
Hellblazer: The Red Right Hand TP--Wasn't crazy about Mina's first arc...
Showcase Presents Batgirl vol. 1 TP--Because I believe in making my wife happy
Superman #664--I'm loving the Busiek & Pacheco issues


True Story, Swear to God vol. 1 TP--This is for the first six Image issues, right? Is there going to be a trade for the last batch of issues before the switch to Image?

Deadpool/GLI Summer Fun Spectacular--There was absolutely no way on Earth I could resist this.
Hulk Visionaries: Peter David vol. 4 TP--Woot! The more of these they release, the fewer back issues I need to keep!

Fallen Angel Premiere Edition HC--Got it at a nice discount, but this may be the one "buyer's remorse" item from this week's list.

Sadhu vol. 1 TP--Hope it is good, but I'm not as excited for it as I should be.

Wait for Trade
--------------
Blade of the Immortal--Got to read the last two!
BPRD: Garden of Souls
100 Bullets--Since I didn't read vol. 9 and 10, and now everything is fuzzy in my head, I have decided to re-read everything from the beginning.
DMZ--I need to get vol. 4 when it comes out.
Fables--Going to start vol. 9 tonight.
Amazing Spider-Girl
Annihilation Conquest: Wraith
Dark Tower: Gunslinger Born--because Jae Lee's art is...wow.
New Avengers--I may switch to monthly because it is proving to be in-freaking-possible to stay spoiler-free while waiting between trades. :mad:
Nova
Spider-Man Loves Mary Jane
X-Factor


Nextwave: I Kick Your Face HC is on the release list, but it isn't listed in my shipped items. Hope it shows up next week because I am dying to read it.

And I just had to mention that twelve or so years ago, I would have been so excited for the Martha Washington Dies one shot.

That's it for the past two weeks' shipment:

I also wanted "Spider-Man Fairy Tales #2", but there were none left. I'll get it elsewhere.

Can't remember all I got, and I didn't pick up my stuff from last week; things I recall at the moment:

Detective Comics
Devil Dinosaur Omnibus Volume 1
B.P.R.D. #5 (digging this series)
Punisher War Journal
Grifter/Midnighter #5 (promising start to this mini, but has quickly disappointed)
DMZ (lovin' it)
Hellboy: Darkness Calls #3

My LCD didn't order me my Elric: Making of a Sorcerer. I will riot when it is convenient.

[Augie De Blieck Jr.]

Picked up NEXUS #99 and NEW AVENGERS #32. That is all.
