[Tron Bonne]

AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #634 GRIM $3.99 (why the dollar more?)

I believe that's going to be ASM's regular price from that issue on

AZRAEL #9 $2.99
BRIGHTEST DAY #4 $2.99
ULTIMATE COMICS X #3 $3.99
DAREDEVIL BY BENDIS & MALEEV TP ULT COLL BOOK 01 $34.99

For those who weren't lucky with Bendis' Omnibuses on DD, I'd highly recommend getting this Ult collection stuff. It's going to be in 3 books. Which is pretty good ebcause the 2 omnibuses are way too high on price.

 

[Dread]

HAUNT #7
AGE OF HEROES #2
ATLAS #2
OFFICIAL HANDBOOK OF THE MARVEL UNIVERSE A TO Z UPDATE #2

Short but solid week. I don't mind having a few weeks in which 4-5 comics come out, vs. one with 2 and another with 9. We've actually averaged about one Handbook a month considering the A TO Z as well as the themed ones (Deadpool, Iron Manual, Avengers) over the last few months. They're always worth the money.

 

[Phaedrus45]

DARK HORSE COMICS

PREDATORS #2 (OF 4) $2.99 - (I don't know if I'm going to bother with this. With all of the $3.99 comics, I need to drop some; and, this might just be one of them.)

DC COMICS

AZRAEL #9 $2.99 - (I'll let my shop know this is the last comic of this series I get. It's going nowhere.)
BIRDS OF PREY #2 (BRIGHTEST DAY) $2.99
BRIGHTEST DAY #4 $2.99
DC UNIVERSE LEGACIES #2 (OF 10) $3.99 - (Fantastic first issue! It's what First Wave should have been.)
DMZ #54 (MR) $2.99 - (This comic is on the cusp for me. I also feel like it's going nowhere; but, I'm 53 issues invested in it...and, if I don't get it, it won't even be at my shop any longer. I'm the only person buying it.)
DV8 GODS AND MONSTERS #3 (OF 8) $2.99
JOKERS ASYLUM HARLEY QUINN #1 $2.99 - (Great first issue this week! I love this series.)
JOKERS ASYLUM MAD HATTER #1 $2.99
REBELS #17 $2.99
SHIELD #10 $3.99 - (I was going to drop this title...but, this is the last issue, and The Web and Shield will be Mighty Crusaders. I won't be getting that title when it starts up.)
SPIRIT #3 $3.99 - (Gonna drop this after this issue. First Wave sucks!)
SUPERMAN WAR OF THE SUPERMEN DOUBLE FEATURE #1 $4.99 - (What's this??)

IDW PUBLISHING

JURASSIC PARK REDEMPTION #1 $3.99 - (IDW puts out such crap, that I'm not putting this on my list just yet. I'll give the first issue a go...it sounds interesting...and, I love Jurassic Park.)

IMAGE COMICS

FOUR EYES #4 (RES) $3.50 - (I forgot about this title. It's hard to get into a comic when you forget what you last read sooo many months ago.)

[CaptainCanada]

MARVEL COMICS

AGE OF HEROES #2 (OF 4) HA $3.99 - maybe.
BLACK WIDOW #3 HA $2.99 - this series has been a big success so far; probably my biggest surprise so far this year.
NEW MUTANTS #14 XSC $2.99 - crossover continues strongly.
THOR BY JURGENS AND ROMITA JR TP VOL 03 $24.99 - will get this at some point; I've been enjoying the Jurgens Thor collections.

NEW MUTANTS #14

Maybe/Most likely: Spider-Ham is a guilty pleasure of mine...
AGE OF HEROES #2
PETER PORKER TP VOL 01 SPECTACULAR SPIDER-HAM GN

Pretty big week, 2 issues of ASM, Deadpool MWAM has only 1 issue left, NA I'm gonna give the first arc a shot, and New Mutants I'm only reading for Second Coming (which has been a stellar crossover so far...).

I wanted to drop Web a while ago but toughed it out until the new format and I'm glad I did.

 

[StreetWarrior]

Just New Avengers #1... which I'll probably regret.

 

[JewishHobbit]

BRIGHTEST DAY #4 $2.99
INCREDIBLE HULK #610 WWHS $3.99
NEW MUTANTS #14 XSC $2.99

Maybe
NEW AVENGERS #1 HA $3.99

Wow, pretty blah week.

 

[Dark Victory]

AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #634 GRIM $3.99


Only one comic, I'll just wait 'til next week to pick it up.

[Watchman]

DC UNIVERSE LEGACIES #2 (OF 10) $3.99
HELLBLAZER #268 (MR) $2.99-Woot! Shade and Milligan back together
JOKERS ASYLUM MAD HATTER #1 $2.99-Big maybe. If it's Sienkiewicz crazy artwork, like something out of Stray Toasters, than a yes
NEW AVENGERS #1 HA $3.99- Another maybe. I'm going to give each Avenger book a try. So far I haven't been impress. Yes, not even Secret Avengers.

 

[CantThinkOfAName]

DMZ #54 (MR) $2.99
AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #633 $2.99
AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #634 GRIM $3.99 - two in one week??
DARK TOWER GUNSLINGER JOURNEY BEGINS #2 (OF 5) $3.99 - so many subtitles!
NEW AVENGERS #1 HA $3.99
WEB OF SPIDER-MAN #9 $3.99 - maybe, thinking of dropping it

 

[CantThinkOfAName]

I believe that's going to be ASM's regular price from that issue on

They're also going to be 40 pages.

 

[Psykoelf]

LOCKJAW AND PET AVENGERS UNLEASHED #4 (OF 4) $2.99
THOR BY JURGENS AND ROMITA JR TP VOL 03 $24.99 (Not buying this myself since I read it when it was coming out, but people with an interest in Thor and some money to burn should not overlook the Jurgens/Romita run just because it's a few years old. There were some great stories, especially the Dark Gods story right at the beginning and the Thanos/Mangog story that ends in #25. This volume features the whole "Eighth Day" event that ran through various comics and featured some good Juggernaut action.)

COMICS
FARSCAPE ONGOING #8 $3.99

Is Heralds Galactus related?

Probably. First issue didn't feature Galactus but, given the subject matter, he'll probably turn up eventually.

 

[bryanss3]

40 pages from now on? Or just Grim Hunt is all 40 pages?

Grim Hunt and OMIT will be 3.99 then it will most likely revert back after. I think the money grubbers at Marvel know what a turn off a 3.99 book and can't expect them to keep ASM's numbers up if it became 3.99 3 times a month from now on. Grim Hunt has a bunch of back matter, and well OMIT is probably going to be one of the biggest cash grabs for ASM cause it's dealing with OMD, but after that I'd assume it will revert back to 2.99. Don't quote me on that though, and I won't continue buying it if it stays at 3.99 after those arcs.
