I will be getting that 2nd Showcase of Jonah Hex & preorder that quick. Superman w/ Ed Benes artwork that is a good thing to look forward to. Both main Batman books are $3.99 ouch. Finally, for the Daytripper holdouts a Daytripper Deluxe Edition will be released in April right after you get those rebate checks.

@mguy1977 thanks for pointing out the Jonah Hex Showcase. I loved the first one, and I think at one point, years ago, they solicited (or maybe not solicited, but only listed on a future slate of books, one of those 'here are all our trades for next year' book catalog things) a volume 2 then cancelled. I will definitely pre-order this one in the hopes that it sees print this time.

@David_D Yeah that Showcase was a go then pulled previously.

A lot of Harley Quinn! Does Paul Dini have pictures of DC big wigs doing something bad?

Well, they do have pictures of him doing Countdown.

Not too much I need this time around, which is good because this month was a killer!

Definitely picking up the Batman 66 collection

Two big thumbs down on making Supergirl a Red Lantern AND making the next Batwoman collection a TP and not Hardcover like the rest of her books...booo DC!

Chuck_Melville

I see DC is experimenting with flip books again, making Green Lantern and Red Lanterns this month a flip comic.

I'm only getting three of the New52; otherwise, I'm just getting non-DC-Continuity books... and not even many of those. I never thought the day would come when, as an old DC fan, I would ever say that.

I'm down to two: Wonder Woman & All-Star Western, neither of which particularly intersect with the DCU proper.

Well, not entirely -- All-Star Western (which is one of the three I'm still getting) has recently had Booster Gold as a guest star, and Hex is now in modern day Gotham where he's been crossing paths with both Batman and Bruce Wayne. And it looks like he'll be there for a while longer, judging from the solicitations. But the book is still a much better read than most of the DCs currently.

Rephrase: They don't usually intersect with the DCU megastory.

That's true, and I'm equally grateful for it.

Finally a second Showcase Presents for Jonah Hex? That's a must get.

And for not really enjoying the new version of Shazam Captain Marvel dammit!, the action figure for the Justice League: War animated movie actually looks pretty cool.

I was interested in checking out that Lois Lane one-shot until I saw the $4.99 price tag. That'll wait until I see it in a dollar bin.

Bump.

Some Marvel titles but not all.

I'd get the Jonah Hex Showcase, but I already have all those issues. I have all the Daytripper issues, but I'm debating as to whether to get the Deluxe HC or not.

New Warriors #1: I'm a big fan of the original New Warriors series and Marcus To is a great artist.

Time to start saving for that Annihilation omnibus.

mwhitt80

Annihilation Omnibus - I have all the issues (all but the heralds issue 1), but I think I would rather have this over the issues.

She Hulk issue 1
Miravle Man 3
Daredevil 36 - I guess it's over.

LibraryBoy

Fantastic Four, She-Hulk, Ms. Marvel, Loki, New Warriors... bunch of interesting-sounding #1s in February.

Torchsong

Lotta new #1s from Marvel I may have to check out...

Mr_Cosmic

Tons of stuff from Marvel.

NEW AVENGERS #15
JONATHAN HICKMAN (W) • SIMONE BIANCHI (A/C)
• Meet the Mapmakers, cartographers of the Apocalypse.
• Doctor Strange sells his soul.
• Reed Richards and the Illuminati rekindle an old relationship.
32 PGS./Rated T+ ...$3.99

I have no idea what that means but it sounds amazing.

mguy1977

Weren't the mapmakers in a issue already, the blue incursion issue, or am I thinking of somebody else?

That will probably be the only #1 I pick up as well. Can't pass on the Javier Pulido artwork.

No Saga dang it. Plus still no NEW Usagi Yojimbo in a long ass time from Dark Horse.
It just means I try out another Marvel Now! title in addition to She-Hulk.

You're going to have to be a tad patient about Usagi for awhile. Not only has Stan Sakai just finished up his samurai mini-series, but he's been uber-distracted with his wife's very serious health issues this year.

Plus, he's working on his Usagi/War Of the Worlds mini-series.
