Wow, around 5 or 6 weeks of being under budget and then a big blowout week here.... that sucks. Still, there's some good signs here. This marks the end of Skaar's mini and of the Immortal Weapon issues of Iron Man 2.0, so those are out of the way. And besides, I've been good... Mrs. Hobbit should be alright with a bigger week after spending so little... right?


Oh, and Daredevil.... WOOOHOOOO!!!!

Small but solid week. Also a cheap week with only one $3.99 book.

What is VENOM FLASHPOINT that Marvel is trying to sell for $5? They trying to cheat confused DC fans? Don't laugh, Marvel has had some titles that bordered on bait-and-switch fraud to sell some comics. Such as using a generic title and a picture of Iron Man from the 2008 film to sell a standard MARVEL ADVENTURES IRON MAN one shot that retailers over ordered. :dry:

I believe it's one of those mini-collections that collect the first couple of issues of the ongoing that Marvel has been doing a lot of lately.

I see.

I did forget about DAREDEVIL. In honesty I was partisan about getting it. I need to start trimming at some point. But, this is a short week, so it's odds are 50/50.

You're 100% getting it... I'm calling it now. You won't be able to resist Martin's art :up:

The fact that I am only getting 4 other comics, and thus this is a "cheap" week, is a larger factor honestly.

Even WITH a $3.99 DAREDEVIL #1, that brings the week's cost tally to about $16, which isn't bad at all.

The last thing I paid for from Marvel that Waid wrote was the debut issue of a DOCTOR STRANGE mini from a year or two back, and while it was above average, I didn't like it enough to commit to $4 an issue for it. It was about Stephen being powerless after Hulk mangled his hands in WWH and thus having to rely on some prodigy magic girl to do stuff, and I thought it was very episode-of-the-week for me. Sure, artwork from Marcos Martin can carry nearly anyone - he's doing the heavy lifting for Stan Lee in some recent Spidey material - but having a slight week where I won't go broke for comics is another factor.

Hence, maybe I would try new things if not for the cost. VENGEANCE #1 I passed because it was an expensive enough week (over $20) and it was $3.99. That really is a poor price point for the debut issue of an ongoing series; the amount of series that have done that and been canceled in under a year likely outnumber the series that have endured by about 10:1, yet Marvel merely is after cynical short term sales and doesn't care about that.
 
Well, the good news is that Daredevil drops to $3 after the overpriced first issue. The fact that it falls on a slow week for you is fantastic (if you're interested enough to give it a shot).

It's falling on a very heavy week for me but I've loved Daredevil too much for too long to give up due to that. I'll just push something else to another week if need be.
