    As always I have no plan regarding which single issues grab my interest - I will listen to what the internet recommends and get the occassional issue the digital way.

    That HARLAN ELLISON’S® 7 AGAINST CHAOS HC looks tempting however.
    The BEFORE WATCHMEN HCs are very tempting.
    ANIMAL MAN OMNIBUS HC = me want, me want, me want.......
    (note to self - buy lottery ticket)

    Glad to see that even though Superman Family Adventures was cancelled that DC is still going to put out trades. I'll definitely be ordering this one.

    Looks like all the Green Lantern creative teams are leaving their books, will be interesting to see who takes over.

    The wake looks really interesting. I'm curious to see the Murphy art and with Snyder writing the story can't be bad.

    The Crisis On Multiple Earths trade is the one I'm most interested in. I was taken aback when my vendor informed me that the previous listing had been cancelled; I see now that it's been resolicited. I note that the new solicitation mentions the JLA/JSA crossover with All-Star Squadron; I had wondered about that when the previous listing omitted it.

    I cant wait for a non-Johns Green Lantern book. What I used to love about GL was the Sci-Fi galaxy-spanning awesomeness of all the alien lifeforms. For the last few years GL has been nothing but a soap opera of internal Green Lantern machinations.

    I'll be getting THE WAKE #1

    Other than the usual suspects, the only things that I see wanting are the Batgirl/Robin Year 1 book and (if I can donate a third kidney) that Bombsell Supergirl statue.

    Batgirl / Robin Year One is a really good idea, but I already own the Batgirl Year One collection and don't want to double dip just for the Robin series.

    Chuckles, I don't have the Batgirl Year One miniseries but own the Robin miniseries instead.

    Even unconscious, Catwoman finds the strength to unzip her outfit. No doubt an attempt to distract Shaggy.

    just freakin rediculous

    Indeed. Judging by the placement of the ring, she’s unzipped almost to her navel. Hawkman's head seems to have disappeared, too. Or is that it sitting where his right shoulder should be, colored the same as Shaggy Man?

    That Batgirl Year 1 story is amazingly fun, and has awesome Marcos Martin art.. such a buy if you dont have the issues.

    Quoted for truth! Martin should have won the Eisner for Best Cover Artist for that series, but he wasn’t even nominated—such a shame.

    Never read either of the books (Batgirl/Robin) so it's definitely a trade I'll want.

    As to the image, my guess is, as Catwoman fell to the ground she heard preliminary sales figures were not good on the book, so she's doing what she can to help boost attention. :)

    I can only hope that when I'm knocked unconscious, my pants unzip as much as Catwoman's.

    I've already got the original individual trades of these two series, so it's not going on my list. But I will agree with and echo the accolades: if you don't have them, then they are definitely worth the getting, and a two-fer is a good way to go.

    It looks like I'm down to two single DC issues now. Green Arrow and Dial H. The Red Hood TP vol 2 and the Annual will be in my order. The Wake seems interesting but I'll probably wait for a trade if I hear good things.

    I thought Marvel was done with the Premiere HCs? I don't want the X-Force one they're touting but I thought they were done with that particular brand?

    No Fatale AND Saga aww crap!!! Still no news on a new issue of Usagi Yojimbo in over a year over at Dark Horse. Looks like I will be buying trades of Usagi Yojimbo from Dark Horse to fill my indie void.

    Thanks for filling in the Previews info on IDW & Image. It is appreciated greatly.

    Stan put Usagi on hiatus while he’s been working on the 47 Ronin mini-series. He’s nearly finished with it, so Usagi will back back on the schedule in a few months.

    IDW with another great Artist Edition that I'll be grabbing. I'm really getting into pre code horror lately so this should be a gem!
