As tempting as some of those new Marvel books look, I think I'm gonna hold off until they reach trade status. Here's my order as it stands:
The DC Stuff
BATMAN 66 HC VOL 01 - A no-brainer. I bought this in my heart before they ever solicited it. :)
BATWOMAN TP VOL 04 THIS BLOOD IS THICK (N52) - I'm very disappointed there was no Hardcover of this, as that's how I have all the other Batwoman books. Bad move, DC, but it's pretty affordable as a trade.
The Marvel Stuff
Nothing. I'll pick up She-Hulk when it shows up in trade format.
The Indie Stuff
GHOST OMNIBUS TP VOL 05 - Have (and love!) the first four. In for a penny, in for the $15 they're asking on DCBS.
REVIVAL TP VOL 03 A FARAWAY PLACE (MR) - If you're not reading this you're missing out on one of the best books out there right now.
The Manga Stuff
DEADMAN WONDERLAND TP VOL 01 - Have heard great things about this one. So we'll see. It's a 13-volume series, which for some manga is a short-run! :)
MEGATOKYO OMNIBUS TP - This one goes against my moral fiber - I'm against double-dipping. But I'm a big fan of Fred, and there's some new stuff added.
SACRED BLACKSMITH GN VOL 04 - A great book if you're a sword enthusiast. Appendices at the end talk all about the history and what goes into making them. I like a little information with my fanservice! :)
SENRAN KAGURA SKIRTING SHADOWS GN VOL 02 - Natsume (my favorite video game company) is overseeing the American release of the game this manga is based on. If there's a dumber reason to support a comic, I'd like to hear it. :)
TIGER & BUNNY GN VOL 04 - Because it is awesome, and for no other reason than that.
Potentially may pick up that Batgirl Kotobikyua statue...I talked myself out of the Black Widow but Babs is Babs... :) Trying to be good after a very expensive last month!

Comments
Darkhorse
Jeremiah vol 3 - I've got volume 2 and my volume 1 was cancelled due to limited numbers (I guess). I've not heard any news on what happened at Darkhorse with volume 1.
Lone Wolf & Cub Omnibus vol 4 - I think this is the last of the Lone Wolf Omnibuses but I'm not 100% sure.

SHOWCASE PRESENTS JONAH HEX TP VOL 02 - And about damn time, too!
DC COMICS BOMBSHELLS BLACK CANARY STATUE - I don't buy statues (too expensive), and I won't get this one either, but was a statues guy, yeah, I'd want this one a lot.
FANTASTIC FOUR #1 - Curious to see which Robinson we get on this.
MIRACLEMAN #3 - Wow, they're committed to that $4.99 pricetag, huh? May trade wait this after all.
