[Tony Bang]

Invincible #26
Battle Pope #3

[Michael P]

Invincible is a dick.

[David Bedlam]

Is it me or was no new issue of Walking Dead and Savage Dragon solicited?

I noticed that as well. For a moment I thought I might have gone blind.

I'm sure there's a reason for it though.

At least we get Invincible and Battle Pope.

[Christopher Burton]

Wow. I love the new comics solicitations. Here's what looks good to me.

[Sharcque]

New stuff that I thought looked or sounded interesting:

Ant #1 (never tried it before, but I think I will now)
Wings Of Anansi GN
The Necromancer

[Kep!]

Pick up SHADOWHAWK #4 folks. It's worth the Washingtons!

[Gavin Higginbotham, BotF]

I noticed that as well. For a moment I thought I might have gone blind.

I'm sure there's a reason for it though.

There is. Both books are playing catch-up. The Walking Dead will be caught up by then, it's just giving the creators the chance to get on a better schedule for themselves. Robert Kirkman has said that there will still be an issue that month, it'll just be the one from the previous month's solicitation, or something like that.

As for Savage Dragon, there's currently four books that have already been solicited (122-125) that have yet to show. Rather than keep soliciting new books that will then be late, Erik is trying to get caught up. On the plus side, this has allowed him to also prepare more trades for release, hence the inclusion of the volume 11 trade. (I love using the word 'hence').

Wings of Anansi - Looks good in a 100 Bullets kind of way.
Bone Rest #2 - I am on a European kick lately and this looks good.
Girls #4 - I am really looking forward to this series.
Strange Girl #3 - I like the artwork and te story doesn't look half bad.

Waiting for the Trade
Invincible
Sea of Red

[Gavin Higginbotham, BotF]

Pick up SHADOWHAWK #4 folks. It's worth the Washingtons!

Heh, well, you would say that!

[Kep!]

Heh, well, you would say that!

I'd be a fool not too. ;)

[Mario Gully]

I thank all of you that might give ANT a try. It would be a good investment. The last series trippled in value in less then a month. You can check it out in Wizard's price guide. I'm sure this new series will follow suit.





:p

[Gavin Higginbotham, BotF]

Oh, I'll be picking up ANT alright. Gotta get all those Savage Dragon appearances...

[HartyPotter]

Invincible #26 for me

[Ron Zoso]

New books I'll be preordering:
Dusty Star #1 -Rick Remender's been pimping the shit out of this and talked me into trying it.
Ferro City #1 -Preview looks good, I'll give it a shot.
The Faceless: A Terry Sharp Story GN -This looks fantastic. No way am I passing this up.
Wings of Anansi GN -Like what little I've seen of this.
