Walking Dead

I'll probably get other stuff from other publishers, too.
 
Crap, I did forget some books. Edit, edit, edit...

Wel, Spoons, the only other book I read is Wolfman which is pretty good, almost Invincible level. I may pick up the Brit backissues now that it's ending, but I've only got the one that crossed over with Invincible.

And don't feel so bad about not fulfilling your completist desires. If there's one thing I've come to learn is that someone at a convention somewhere will have more recent issues in a discount bin somewhere. I was able to pick up most of Brand New Day at Boston Comic Con earlier this month (all 50 cents each, which I still felt was overpaying but offset by the fact Marvel doesn't see a dime of the money I dished out on them).
 
BPRD
Fear Agent

Action Comics
Haunted Tank
Sgt. Rock: The Lost Battalion
Supergirl
Superman
Unknown Soldier

G.I. Joe
Star Trek: Assignment Earth

Madman/Atomic Comics

Eh, maybe it'll surprise me. I wasn't expecting to like the Annihilation: Super-Skrull mini, but it wound up being one of my favorites of the Annihilation lead-ins. Maybe something similar will happen here.

still on the fence about Iron Fist,Herc and Iron Man

Uncanny X-Men
Wonder Woman

Current miniseries:

Avengers/Invaders (decided I might as well finish this out)

Upcoming miniseries:

Dark Reign: Fantastic Four (since it'll be a good indicator of Hickman's FF run, and only 2.99, might as well)

My pull list should be droppin down to almost nothin.

I was collecting tons of stuff, but it dwindled down. Now I've dropped MA (Slott's first two issues were fails, plus I HATE Jocasta AND Pym).

NA I stayed with WAY too long. 49 was good, 50 was crap (How has Bendis not realized that putting a bunch of street level avengers against an army of villains that out-class them is ******ed, let alone then having them cracking jokes the whole time).

USM is swithing to an artist I absolutely hate

Buffy has slayers as no longer a secret and a Vampire as being a tv star? What the heck!?!?


It's like all the comic writers simultaneously just gave up.

I'm still doing Cap A and Thor trades, but other than that I don't know what the heck I'm gona collect, if anything.
 
From now going into May this will be my Pull. I think anyway.
