DC COMICS
Booster Gold #2, $2.99 - I liked the 1st issue. Good, fun comic that has possibilities. I keep going back to this is what I thought DC wanted to move to after Infinite Crisis.

I think I'm getting more books this week than the last two weeks combined. Unfortunatly, I haven't read all of them from last week, so I've got a lot to read this weekend.

Dark Horse
Fear Agent The Last Goodbye #3: bringing back my love for the series. Really enjoyed the last two.
Star Wars Legacy #16: Hopefully some explanation on last issues reveal for those of us who don't read every single Star Wars comic and novel.

DC/Vertigo
Black Adam the Dark Age #2: Pleasantly suprised by #1. Great art.
DMZ #23: I think this is the start of a new arc. Great series.
Fables #65: Needs to pick up the pace a bit, but should be back to "The Good Prince" and pray it's back to Buckingham art. Did not enjoy the fill in artist last month.
Green Lantern #23: More Sinestro Corps fun. Loving every bit of it so far.
Jack of Fables #14: Another great series. Kind of wish they would go back to not shipping the same day as Fables, just to spread out the fun.
JSA #9: "Thy Kingdom Come" starts. Curious to see what they do with this, could go good or bad.

Image
Casanova #9: Last issue was awesome. This is the good Matt Fraction.

Marvel
Ghost Rider #15: Still pretty much enjoying this, but I think I'll drop it, maybe go month to month or wait for the trade.
Loners #5: Fun mini. Enjoying Moline's art.
Moon Knight #12: Officially dropped with this issue, unless I hear an exciting creative team or positive reviews. Too damn confusing.
New Avengers #34: More Skrull/Hood fun. See if we get good Yu or rushed Yu.
Ultimate Power #7: I'm having fun with this mini. Good action/fighting. Horn's art doesn't bother me.
Punisher War Journal #11: I'm dropping this one as well, although may check out the new artist. Can't remember who was announced but I remember kind of enjoying them. Switching to trades.
Ultimate Spider-man #113: Good as always.
X-factor #23: Also good as always. Better not mess this up with the whole Disassembled thing.

Oni
Maintenence #5: need to track down #3, but read 4. Funny stuff.

Yet another small week, but my list of Wait for Trade is unreal. :eek:

Groo 25th Anniversary Special--Absolutely no way I wasn't getting this. :D
Hellboy vol. 7: The Troll, Witch, & Others TP--Volume 6 is still very sharp in my mind, so I may just jump right into this one immediately.

Superman #667--I hope this is Busiek & Pacheco. The fill-ins are really bugging the crap outta me.

Casanova #9--Yikes! I need to read #8.

Daredevil #100--This is the first thing I'm going to read!
Ultimate Spider-Man #113--The sadness is fading and I'm ready to accept Immonen and give a talented artist his chance.

Potter's Field--It's Waid. I buy.

Wait for Trade
--------------
Blade of the Immortal--I plan on going back through this series soon, and then reading the last two. Maybe revive the book club threads if a second read through sparks something.
BPRD--Another series I need to catch up on.
Fear Agent: Last Goodbye--Hope this gets collected soon
100 Bullets--Only on #85!?! Damn.
Booster Gold--I may get this, if it gets collected.
DMZ--Need to order vol. 3
Fables--Currently making my way thorugh vol. 9
Green Lantern--I liked the last HC more than I thought I would and the Sinestro Corps really has grabbed my interest.
Jack of Fables--Eager for vol. 2
Stormwatch PHD--I liked vol. 1 alot, but losing Mahnke will hurt.
Noble Causes--Always.
Amazing spider-Girl--I am soooo far behind on this, I don't even know why I'm sticking with it any more.
Moon Knight--Liked the first volume enough to wait for vol. 2
New Avengers--I listen to John & Brian's podcasts, and the wait between trades becomes that much more unbearable.
Nova--Because Annihilation ruled!
X-Factor--Another series that I hate waiting for.
X-Men: Emporer Vulcan--Who writes this?

Crap. That is a long list.

I didn't pre-order Nightly News, but I might still pick it up at some point.

Fear Agent: Last Goodbye--Hope this gets collected soon
I think that the Dark Horse solicits for Dec 2007 (http://www.comicbookresources.com/news/newsitem.cgi?id=11834) will make you a happy boy. Of course, I'm sure that it is advanced solicited so it probably means that it will show up in March 2008! :D

THE LAST GOODBYE is solicited for February 6th. Not too far off there, Trip! ;-)

Ooh, as is INDIANA JONES OMNIBUS VOLUME 1.

And IT ATE BILLY ON CHRISTMAS (!!!).

And there's a Dorkin story in PREDATOR OMNIBUS VOLUME 2.

I'll shut up now.

Very happy to see the Fear Agent trade, indeed. But one thing just made me shout "YES!!!" from my desk at work. Yes, the Grendel: Devil's Quest HC.

This story originally saw print in as short back up stories in the various Grendel Tales series. They were then all collected a year or so later because they serve as the prelude to Batman/Grendel II. I never bought it because, "Hey! I already own the issues! Humper dimper doo, I'm an idiot!"

Thing is the Grendel Tales minis were by other creators playing in the Grendel pool, and while they were my primary introduction to Grendel, I no longer feel the urge to keep them all. But finding this collection became a quest of its own, and one I sadly had given up as hopeless. So, WOOT!

Hopefully this means that Devil's Reign and God and the Devil will eventaully be collected.
