The only book I think I am getting this week is Brave and the Bold #7

[goman]

Dark Horse
Umbrella Academy #2: Suprised by how much I enjoyed the first issue. Adding to the pull list.

DC/Vertigo
Checkmate #19: Last issue was great, hope this continues.
DMZ #24: Should be another great issue.
Fables #66: Ditto.
Justice League of America #14: This gets a question mark next to it. Kind of enjoyed the last few issues, but I'm not a big fan of JLA and this really isnt doing anything for me, it's just money down the drain.

Image
Suburban Glamour #1: Another question mark. Enjoyed McKelvie's work on Phonogram, worried this may not be as good. I'll flip though it.

Marvel
Mighty Avengers #5: Finally. What happened in the last issue? How many months till issue 6 comes out?
Powers #26: You now you're doing bad when multiple issues of Powers come out before your next issue does. I'm looking at you Mighty Avengers.

Oni
Whightout: Melt Definitive Edition: Didn't order this but need to see if the store has a copy. Hopefully they do. Have a copy of the first volume and loved it, want to read the sequel.

DC COMICS
Birds Of Prey #111, $2.99
Brave And The Bold #7, $2.99
Checkmate #19, $2.99
Death Of The New Gods #1 (of 8), $3.50 - flip test. Starlin's recent Mystery in Space did not do it for me. Plus the price point for the "floppy" is enough that if the story is good, I will "trade" it.
Fables #66, $2.99 :D
Justice League Of America #14, $2.99
Shadowpact #18, $2.99 - My interest in this title is similar to the Griffins' vacation in Purgatory. Not bad, but not good.

IMAGE COMICS
Suburban Glamour #1 (of 4), $3.50 - Phonogram did not grab me. I will give this a flip test. Potential trade from there.

MARVEL COMICS
Captain America #31 CWI, $2.99 - I need something positive to happen to the heroes. I could see my faith in Brubaker wane some more if a hint of the good guys winning does not occur soon.
Mighty Avengers #5 CWI, $2.99 - I'm with everybody. NO reason for this to be THIS late.
Powers #26, $3.95
Wolverine Origins #18, $2.99

Every week I miss something when I write my list and every week Augie reminds me of something on the podcast.

Marvel
The Dark Tower: Gunslinger Born HC: No familiarity with the novels, but people seemed to enjoy it and I love me some Jae Lee art, so I'll check it out.

I think that I read the first couple of novels in the series. Don't remember a thing about it and also had no real interest in this release. The Jae Lee art did look nice though. Do you know if he is the working on anything Marvel Universe related right now?

[goman]

I'd imagine he's working on the next Dark Tower series (I think they're doing another one.) I could be wrong on this though. And even though it's on Diamonds list, my store didn't get the book this week, hopefully next week though.

This week I finally got my books from the two weeks before:

I also bought some mangas (http://img89.imageshack.us/img89/6194/20071019mangatv5.jpg) (but you can only have 4 pics in a post).

My feelings exactly. I ordered a second for my brother-in-law, becasue he's a huge Dark Tower fan, but my interest is mainly in Lee's art. If I like the story too, then bonus.
