I'm looking forward to the Mars Attacks crossover from IDW that Murd mentioned. I'd like to have got the ongoing. Just couldn't afford another monthly series though. So I'll have to get a couple of these crossovers instead. Ghostbusters will be awesome and I'll probably get Transformers too, although I'm really interested to see how they work in Popeye. I heard they're to play by the rules of the non-Mars Attacks universes. Think Popeye could be a funny one.
Pants! How could you not have taped a quick interview with Uncle Sal for us all! :D
And Shane: I'm not sure if you're talking about the same Shade comics, but I'm 99% sure I just heard about a solicit for the recently completed 12-issue Shade series being collected in a regular trade paperback. Not an Absolute. Not a hardcover. But not an Omnibus either. Just a regular softcover trade. Which is sort of a shame. (I particularly liked the three issues drawn by Frazer Irving.)
