[JewishHobbit]

END LEAGUE #4 $2.99
X-MEN MANIFEST DESTINY #1 (OF 4) MD $3.99
X-MEN ORIGIN BEAST $3.99

The End League is the only definate here, and most probably Manifest Destiny, but Ill glimpse through it first. I liked the art for Origin of Jean Grey so if it's the same then I'll probably pick up the Beast as well. Man, after this week's huge wallet buster I'm glad next week's is going to be small, as I'll probably have to split the comics up into two weeks to afford them all.


And man, Frontline's the only SI tie in next week, after a billion of them this week. Marvel should really spread these out more.

 

[Specter313]

BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER #18
MS MARVEL ANNUAL #1
STAND CAPTAIN TRIPS #1
X-MEN MANIFEST DESTINY #1
X-MEN RETURN OF MAGIK (if this includes something new and not just a collection of recent stuff)

 

[CaptainCanada]

DC COMICS

FABLES #75 (MR) (NOTE PRICE) $4.99 - Can't wait to see how things go; so far, Fabletown has had it way too easy for my liking (although I understand that's an in-story point).
GREEN LANTERN #34 $2.99 - Honestly, I'm about ready for this story to be over; there's some interesting stuff (and it's been getting better), but, still, over.
MANHUNTER #34 $2.99 - Knowing my shop, this won't come in that week.
SECRET SIX #1 $2.99 - Maybe. I like Simone and I liked the group's appearance in BoP; I'm just not sure if this gets budgeted yet.

MARVEL COMICS

INVINCIBLE IRON MAN #5 $2.99 - Still undecided about continuing with this series after this arc; a bunch of upcoming prospects is going to prompt another pruning soon, I suspect.

Wow, one-sided week.

DARK HORSE COMICS
BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER #18 $2.99

DC COMICS
AUTHORITY #2 $2.99
FABLES #75 (MR) (NOTE PRICE) $4.99 (Noted and dismayed. I hope this isn't a regular thing. I like Fables a lot but I don't know if it's still worth it at $5 a pop.)

X-MEN MANIFEST DESTINY #1 (OF 4) MD $3.99 (Carey + Iceman = awesome. Simple formula, and I'm glad Marvel's getting back to it.)
X-MEN ORIGIN BEAST $3.99 (Maybe. Beast's my favorite X-Man, so I gotta flip through it at the shop, at least.)

COMICS
DAMNED PRODIGAL SONS #3 (OF 3) $3.50 (God, I can't wait for this. Demons + noir + black comedy = win.)

Wow, relatively small week for me, yet it's chock full of a lot of goodness.

 

[Tron Bonne]

[moraldeficiency]

TRINITY #14 $2.99 - I'm back on the bandwagon, the last issue was good and I'm a sucker for the riddler.
INVINCIBLE IRON MAN #5 $2.99 - While I like DoS more, this is still damn good.
SECRET INVASION FRONT LINE #3 (OF 5) SI $2.99
SUB-MARINER DEPTHS #1 (OF 5) $3.99

 

[CaptainCanada]

FABLES #75 (MR) (NOTE PRICE) $4.99 (Noted and dismayed. I hope this isn't a regular thing. I like Fables a lot but I don't know if it's still worth it at $5 a pop.)

[TheCorpulent1]

According to the preview, the issue is 64 pages, so that would account for the price.

Okay, that works for me. $5 isn't bad at all for 64 pages.

[TheCorpulent1]

AUTHORITY #2 $2.99 - (So far, none of these World's End books have done much in way of interesting stories.)

Isn't that kind of unfair criticism for the second issue. The first issue of The Authority was solid and, frankly, I'm just glad we're getting a second issue before we're all old and gray at this point.
