The Diamond List for December 19th, 2012...

ANGEL & FAITH #17
ASTONISHING X-MEN #57
AVENGERS #2
CABLE AND X-FORCE #2
CAPTAIN MARVEL #8
GAMBIT #7
UNCANNY X-FORCE #35
WOLVERINE AND X-MEN #22
X-FACTOR #249
X-MEN LEGACY #3
X-TREME X-MEN #8

Knew I'd get slammed sooner or later with the smaller weeks I've had.

 

HELLBLAZER #298 (2 more issues to go....)
AVENGERS #2
CAPTAIN AMERICA #2
CAPTAIN AMERICA AND BLACK WIDOW #640
DAREDEVIL #21
GAMBIT #7
INDESTRUCTIBLE HULK #2
JOURNEY INTO MYSTERY #647
SCARLET SPIDER #12.1
SECRET AVENGERS #35
THOR GOD OF THUNDER #3
THUNDERBOLTS #2
UNCANNY X-FORCE #35
VENOM #28
WOLVERINE AND X-MEN #22

Maybe:
CABLE AND X-FORCE #2 - I haven't read the first issue yet so I could still bail.


Other than that this is a gigantic week, my pull list looks like freaking Phaed's. It was pretty expected though since Marvel is clearing out everything before X-Mas. The only book they're releasing the week of the 26th is ASM #700. Yeah, it's 8 bucks (unless you pony up for one of the many variants) but I am NOT missing that one. So all in all it's like 2 weeks in one. It is what it is.....

Oh and thanks TMoB!

Well, this will be an interesting week. After adding up my buy list for March's solicitations I realized that I'm up to $115 that month when I try to stick to $80 give or take. So I'll be making a bunch of cuts and I'm not sure what they'll be yet. I'm almost certain that Avengers will be cut because I'm not invested yet, I'll feel like I'm missing part of the story not buying NA, an it'll save me $8 a month, which is a help. Avengers Arena put a bad taste in my mouth but I'll admit to being curious about the series. I've always loved the "survivor of the fittest" theme and this certainly fits that bill. I don't expect this title to last more than 12 issues and I sorta want to see the first couple to see how it plays out. Indestructible Hulk was good but I'm not particularly a Hulk fan so I don't think I'd miss it if I were to drop it... but I did enjoy the first issue a lot. I'll probably keep this but we'll see. When I have to make cuts, that includes titles I like but wouldn't miss. Cable & X-Force sucked but I'm curious about the team and the possible Phalanx plot. I at least want to give it a couple issues to impress me. X-Men Legacy has been bad but with potential to really pick up following last issue. I'll probably keep this one for at least the next couple of issues but if it doesn't improve then I'm not sticking with it.

Other than that, the rest are great.

 

Ahhh... that's why it's such a large week. I didn't think about that.

I won't be buying ASM (or the other SM title, which I think is coming out that week) so there will be no Marvel for me. I'm curious what DC will be coming out and if it'll be worth a trip to the comic shop?

 

I don't expect a Diamond list for that week since TMoB has left until after ASM 700 to avoid spoilers. Someone else will have to post it.
