    What's everyone getting?

    ALL STAR SUPERMAN #2 (first issue was meh, but I give it to #3 to win me over)
    INFINITE CRISIS #4 (OF 7) - Perez cover (although Lee's cover gives me lots to look forward to :D )

    FRIENDLY NEIGHBORHOOD SPIDER-MAN #4 (finally wrapping up)
    IRON MAN THE INEVITABLE #2 (OF 6)
    MARVEL KNIGHTS SPIDER-MAN #22 (odd to see both "Other" comics on sale on the same day)

    And of course,

    TRANSFORMERS INFILTRATION #1 :D 


    Looks like a mediocre week. Here's hoping that Infiltration #1 is better than #0, though.

    I hope so, too. DCComics.com says it is shipping this week, but I wouldn't be surprised if they pulled a Marvel.com (ie, saying a comic is shipping one week, and then the comic actually shipping a month later)

    I never post in these threads, because I usually let comics build up and go once a month or twice a month depending, but this time I think I'll say what I'm getting.

    Friendly Neighborhood Spidey # 4
    MK Spidey # 22
    Transformers Infiltration # 1


    Wasn't this month supposed to see a sort of massive Profile style book from Marvel; like the first in a six issue run or something that would fill in all the profiles on characters, places and the like from Earth 616, Ultimate Marvel Earth and even mention in brief all the other alternate realities or something?
    I desperately wanna snag that title; I guess I either missed it or it's not due until next week or something.

    I sure hope The Other has a killer conclusion; I'd hate for it to go mediocre at the end and turn what has been something extremely excellent as Comic stories go into someting piss poor.

    According to Marvel.com, the first profile book ships next week, 1/25.

    As for "The Other"? Not getting my hopes up beyond Spider-Man acting more like a spider. As cool as it was to see Morlun return, I haven't been nearly as interested in the arc as I wished I had been.

    I bought this book because people here praise it. But it's a wildstorm book. as soon as i start to like it it will stop for a year, or get a new team and be revamped 64 times. :cry
