What am I missing?

[Loren]

Where can I find the full solicitation list online?

[Emerald Ghost]

Where can I find the full solicitation list online?

Not sure. I got this from MailOrderComics.com but I think you have to register to see the previews book.

[Corsair]

Where can I find the full solicitation list online?Diamond has it here (http://previews.diamondcomics.com/default.asp?t=1&m=1&c=23&s=140&ai=11426) on their website. That one's just a list.

Mailordercomics has text files with the full solicitation text in the monthly tools (http://www.mailordercomics.com/monthlytools.asp) section of the website.

Personally, I prefer to wait for the actual catalog to arrive with my monthly order. It just isn't the same browsing a text file.

[Loren]

Ah, here we are (http://previews.diamondcomics.com/support/previews_docs/orderforms/cof.txt). (And upon editing, I see Corsair beat me to it.) My November looks to include:

Already on the pull list
EX MACHINA #17 (MR) SRP: $2.99
GOTHAM CENTRAL #37 SRP: $2.50
JSA #79 SRP: $2.50
JSA CLASSIFIED #5 SRP: $2.50

Will probably end up buying
ALL STAR SUPERMAN #1 SRP: $2.99
PLASTIC MAN #19 SRP: $2.99 (this is currently on my pull list, but the last few issues have been awfully disappointing)
SHOWCASE PRESENTS JONAH HEX VOL 1 TP SRP: $16.99

Might buy, might not
INFINITE CRISIS #2 (Of 7) SRP: $3.99 (I'm not committing to any crossover until I know what the darn thing is about)
JONAH HEX #1 SRP: $2.50

[Emerald Ghost]

SPOILERS If you enjoy DC, you should get IC. It's the catalyst for everything that leads up to the one year jump, from what has been told to us.

When is 52 coming out??

The Thing #1

SPOILERS If you enjoy DC, you should get IC. It's the catalyst for everything that leads up to the one year jump, from what has been told to us.

But that only tells me what 'Infinite Crisis' *does*. It tells me nothing about its content, about the story that I'm paying $4 to read. All I have so far is hype (e.g. "What happens next will destroy friendships and lives, dictating the direction of the universe for the next generation!").

I can compare it to Zero Hour. That crossover was sometimes hyped as a sequel to Crisis, and a means of straightening up DC continuity. But that didn't offer a clue as to what the series was actually going to be about.

I'm waiting to decide on IC because I want to make the choice based on whether the story inside interests me. 'Cause the general editorial direction and the stories that have been building up to it sure haven't (as evidenced by how my DC pull list has dwindled to the handful listed above).

I would hazard to guess the beginning of next year.

Will IC be weekly or monthly? I remember hearing that the one year jump will happen between issues four and five, so if the first issue is out this month that's be about right.

[Corsair]

Ah, procrastination is good. With the deadline coming up this weekend, I finally got my order in. Now I only have to worry for a week about how I'm going to make rent after spending too much on comics, instead of stressing for the whole month. :D

Here we are (with selected commentary!):

SEP050301 ABC A-Z GREYSHIRT AND COBWEB 50% $1.99 1 $1.99
I'm a little fuzzy on what exactly is in here. Is it a secret files type thing, or more like those awful JLA-Z they did a couple of years ago? If the latter, I'll probably be sorry I ordered it.

I'd have picked this up based solely on the title. The low price is nice too, but dang, that title just conjures up images of cool inside my brain.

Peter David is pretty hit or miss with me. His original X-Factor run was a hit. The Madrox mini was a big hit. If this is anything like Madrox, I'll be ecstatic.
