MAY051743 NEW X-MEN #16
MAY051808 NEW X-MEN HELLIONS #3
MAY051800 X-MEN #173

I don't know why I'm reading Hellions. The only reason I got New X-Men in the first place is because it has some of the old New Mutants in it. Hellions doesn't have that going for it. Yet I'm reading it anyway.

Dammitall, Marvel.com said Ultimate Iron Man #3 was coming out this week.

Xcandescent · 07-27-2005, 07:43 PM

JSA: Classified #1 is allegedly "sold out" at the source -- which means DC probably shorted the run so they could brag about yet another IC tie-in "selling out". Bastards.

(Me, I'm just curious about Power Girl. AFAIK, they never did nail down her origin ...)

Random Encounter #4: I missed issues 2 and 3, which sucks because this is a fun read.

Superman/Batman #21: Batzarro am not awesome!

Flash #224: Next to last chapter of Rogue War, wherein the new Reverse Flash proves he's just as much of a bastard as the old one -- in case the point hadn't been driven home yet.

Outsiders #26: First of a two-part Batman + Outsiders reunion/flashback.

Wonder Woman #219: The big conclusion to Sacrifice. Probably the must-get issue of the week. Leads into:

The OMAC Project #4 (of yeah right): You could completely ignore the first 3 issues of OMAC, read Sacrifice, start OMAC here -- and not miss anything. That's how badly the first 3 issues sucked. Fortunately, Sacrifice fixed that, and things are finally moving. I find the premise of OMAC about as unlikely as the premise behind Identity Crisis -- but OMAC thinks bigger, which is good.

JLA: Classified #10: Warren Ellis' 6-part "New Maps of Hell" begins here. The other must-get issue of the week.

Kinetic (trade paperback): It's $10, and I figured I'd try something different.

Nadda for me.

Though I see Ultimate Spiderman Vol 13: Hobgoblin is out.
Have to add that to the 'Want list'

MAR052787 TRANSFORMERS UNIVERSE #1 RED FOIL CON ED
Anyone got an idea what this is?

Misatokitty · 07-28-2005, 06:54 AM

SPIDERWOMAN!

... wait, more needs to be said? Apart from Adam West, she was the first superhero I adored. And I saw this on the shelf tonight and went all fanboyish and added that into my $50+ haul. Haven't finished it yet... savouring it because apart from New Avengers, I prolly won't see her again in a comic for a while

RabidYak · 07-28-2005, 07:21 AM

I had to laugth when I saw the Wolverine calender in that list, you probably need one just to keep track of all the titles he is in thesedays.

Doctor Doom · 07-28-2005, 07:51 AM

OMAC Project #4 (of 6)
Superman/Batman #21 (2 of 6)

Light week for me. I missed out on Sacrafice arc (totally sold out at the shop) and I missed the advance for House of M F4.

I got the HoC Skywarp though
