July Previews - Whatcha Gettin?

Torchsong

The Order as it Stands for this Month

Because 70 cents is great for a book these days even if it's on clearance:
ALL NEW INVADERS #2 *CLEARANCE*
AVENGERS WORLD #1 *CLEARANCE* - seriously DCBS readers - check out their clearance section every now and then. I've yet to get a book in bad condition when I buy them this way. Some are as low as 35 cents!

Because These Books Look Hip as F*ck:
CHIMERA BRIGADE HC VOL 01 - Titan Comics are my new favorite indie company.
PRINCESS UGG TP VOL 01 - Have to make sure Barbrabarian (my webcomic) doesn't veer too close to this. Also it looks cool.
SATOSHI KON OPUS TP - Because the man was a genius and left us too soon.

Because Cheap:
EX CON #1 - 99 cents. Worth a look

Because Not Cheap:
ROY THOMAS PRESENTS SHEENA QUEEN JUNGLE SLIPCASE ED - I hope we only see one or two more of these. They're not cheap but I want a good copy of the collected run on the shelf. Curse my jungle girl love! :)

Because DC Still Puts Out Some Good Stuff:
FAIREST TP VOL 04 OF MEN AND MICE (MR)
GREEN ARROW TP VOL 02 HERE THERE BE DRAGONS - Grell rocks. Got to meet him at PCC this year and got him to sign my Longbow Hunters issues.
SENSATION COMICS FEATURING WONDER WOMAN #2 - This just looks fun.
TEEN TITANS EARTH ONE HC VOL 01 - They brought back Terra. As in Tara Markov Terra. All I needed to hear.
ALL-STAR WESTERN VOL 05

Because George:
GEORGE PEREZ SIRENS #1 MAIN CVRS - George is one of the people who started me absolutely loving comics.

Because Even Grown-Ass Men Cry Sometimes:
LAIKA SC - The first living being to ever fly beyond our atmosphere, Laika was a stray dog used in the Sputnik 2 program. She did not survive the experience, sadly.

Because Manga Still Rocks:
MAGICAL GIRL APOCALYPSE GN VOL 01
NISEKOI FALSE LOVE GN VOL 05
NO GAME NO LIFE GN VOL 01 - Something about this story just appeals. Two veteran gamers get drawn into a virtual world. That's nothing new, but it sounds like the two gamers are real jerkasses.

Because These Books Rule:
QUANTUM & WOODY TP VOL 03 CROOKED PASTS PRESENT TENSE
REVIVAL TP VOL 04 ESCAPE TO WISCONSIN
SOUTHERN BASTARDS TP VOL 01 HERE WAS A MAN (MR)

@Greg how is Umbral going? I read the first three and loved it. So moved to trade. Still to get round to reading it all though.

Added Sabrina #1 based on the preview pages shown on CBR. Was never a *huge* Archie nut but read enough of it in my youth to enjoy what they're doing with him lately (Married, Afterlife, etc.)

@luke52 - I love it. Waiting for each each issue is torture. It's one of the few books that get both in print and digital as I keep finding myself going back to read previous issues while waiting for the new one. Every time Rascal is on the verge of getting caught I get that rush I used to get reading comics in my youth.

Don't forget to check the 'order accessories' section on DCBS. All of the offerings for the psuedo-Free comic book day that is referred to as Halloween Comic Fest are being sold(?) for only .75 cents each. A few choice books worth dropping 3 quarters on if I do say so myself.

Also added "Future Proof" to my order. It's from an independent company called Bliss On Tap. Ordered the color issue from DCBS, but downloaded it first in black & white for free from the company's website here



Nice little time travel conspiracy meets men in black type of book.
