  1. Bah, I only bought Marvel Zombies vs. Army of Darkness for the Ash love. Read Marvel Zombies 2 in the shop, IMHO.

    Otherwise I'll be picking up Countdown (gag me), Brave and the Bold (SQUEE!), and... well, I'm not sure what else. I'm pretty sure there's something else I'm picking up, I just can't remember what.

  3. I may very well snap from Death of the New Gods. Not. A. Happy. Mordicai. I guess this is the new cross company cycle? Marvel: Kill of Kirby creations! Marvel: Bring back Kirby creations! DC: Kill off Kirby creations!

    YOU DUMB JERKS LEAVE IT ALONE.

    Death Of The New Gods makes me want to smash Didio's mailbox. Grrr.

  5. I'll be getting Birds of Prey, Checkmate, Captain America, Death of the New Gods, Justice League and... sigh... Countdown. Yeah. I know. On the bright side the other books should be really, really good.

    Have a good day.

  9. My New Comic Day is a week behind y'alls, so I'll be buying old news.

    Curious though, on your opinion Val: Brave and Bold Wonder Woman and Power Girl: So Good or No Good? Nrama's got some preview pages up that I think looks kinda neato...

  10. If people don't like Countdown, then why buy it??? For the amount of bitching about DC y'all do, you seem more than happy to buy the stuff you bitch about endlessly.

    For me, it's Mighty Avengers, Terror Inc, and Umbrella Academy. New Bendis, Lapham, and Gabriel Ba *all* in the same week??? I must be dreaming!!!
