This is going to be a light week for me as far as DC books are concerned. The only two I'm picking up for sure are Manhunter and Teen Titans, two of my favorites. This is the second part of the post-IC Doctor Light story arc in Titans, and I'm looking forward to it. For that matter, Manhunter is sort of an IC follow-up as well, with the trial of the Shadow Thief continuing. I *always* look forward to this title. If you haven't been picking it up, rectify this mistake at once!

If the first issue of The Human Race does indeed ship this week, I may give this a look. The four preview pages (see link) certainly look interesting. Has anyone heard anything about this book? What kind of a writer is Raab?

My lack of DC titles is more than made up for by the Marvel titles I'll be picking up. Would you believe I only pick up 5 Marvel titles/month and *four* of them are shipping this week?! (New Avengers, Young Avengers, Captain America, Hulk. And who can guess the other Marvel title I buy that isn't shipping this week. ;))

[Deathstroke]

I'm picking up Birds of Prey, Manhunter, Space Ghost, and Teen Titans.

[noodleboy]

Here's what it's looking like for me:


BIRDS OF PREY #80
EX MACHINA #9
MANHUNTER #8
TEEN TITANS #22

Also, like you Jim I only pick up a handful of Marvel's and this week most of them come out as well.

Captain America, Black Panther, Young Avengers & New Avengers...The only other one I get is Runaways...which I will guess as Jim's final Marvel book.

[Adem]

Just Teen Titans #22 for me this week. Oh almost forgot also getting JLA #112 this week.

[Ilash]

Only Ex Machina, Teen Titans and JLA for me this week from DC but I do have Ultimate Spidey and the Hulk to even things out for me.

I just picked up issue 1-3 of Manhunter yesterday and it is a really great series. The first issue seemed very bare bones and I still need some explanation as to how she came about her costume (is that staff an old Manhunter's, and if so, why is it in the evidence room?), but the second and third issues made up for that. She's not just a female Daredevil. I like the fact that she has a kid and isn't a perfect mother. She's a believable character and I hope this series makes it through. I have a feeling that this and Breach may stick around for at least a couple years because of the DC connections in them and in-house backing. Hopefully, that is.

Nope. I have heard good things about it though; I should probably check it out. And it turns out that New Avengers has been delayed again.

[Captain Jim]

The Human Race is confirmed for this week.

Also, add the Question and Wonder Woman to the list (see links on original post).

[chicainery]

DC-wise, Birds of Prey #80 is it for me this week.

[Deathstroke]

You can add The Question and Wonder Woman to my list.

Sorry to break it to you Fever, but he already knew that. <wink, wink>

[GremlinClr]

For me this week:

JLA #112
Manhunter #8

Normal week for me. And looking forward to all three.

[Brian R]

He clearly used his mod-powers to edit his own post without it appearing that way, because I swear that wasnt written there before!

Oh, and :p to you too, smartass! :D

[Mon-el]

My Picks are the same as Deathstrokes:

Birds of Prey #80
Manhunter #8
Question #5
Space Ghost #5
Teen Titans #22
Wonder Woman #214

As to Jim's Mystery Marvel Comic. I think I have got it narrowed down to Captain America & Falcon, New Thunderbolts, Daredevil, The Pulse, New X-men Mutant Academy...so which to choose....which to choose... Ok I'll make the guess of Captain America & Falcon.

Outside DCU Titles but still DCU:

Adventures of Superman
Catwoman
JLA

[Forsaken_One]

What the hell, I'll play. I bought:

Manhunter #8 (fine! I bought it! Happy now?)
Invincible #21
Ex Machina #9
Birds of Prey #80
the Question #5
Young Avengers #2

And when I get out of work I'll remember to buy:

Teen Titans #22

Stupid short lunch breaks.
