they're both the books that are the most surprising for me each month, with a book like Checkmate or Criminal I look forward to them with glee but NA and GL are always great but I sort of forget about them ya know?

I hear you on that.

It's funny. Green Lantern was always my favorite character. I never really picked up the GL book though. I guess mainly because Kyle Rayner is my favorite Lantern and since I've been back it's been a Hal book.
I'm loving this Sinestro Corp though.

Between Annihilation last summer and Sinestro this one, I can't believe I'm buying outer space comics!

[CAM!]

Oh yeah baby new Booster Gold!!!

THat's the shit!!

I really need to get Rebirth

[kwok_talk]

YES!!!! I just recently read it and it's AWESOME!

[Six Gun]

is the Sciver art as good as it was in the one-shot?

[kwok_talk]

I don't recall it being notably worse

[Six Gun]

cool, I'll have to check that out

[iSteve]

Wonder Woman #13 - new creative team. I'm hoping that this title finally gets back on track.

It's my last issue unless I'm blown away, sorry. Gotta cut down

Um.. I thought Gail Simone was starting on #14? :confused:

WONDER WOMAN #13

http://www.dccomics.com/media/covers/8173_180x270.jpg

Written by Gail Simone; Art and Cover by Terry Dodson and Rachel Dodson

An electrifying new era begins for the world's greatest superheroine! Gail Simone (BIRDS OF PREY, SECRET SIX) joins the phenomenal art team of Terry and Rachel Dodson for what promises to be one of the most exciting Wonder Woman stories ever!

What exactly is the Circle, and what deadly secret do they hold about Diana's birth? What familiar face from Wonder Woman's past returns with a mission to spy on Special Agent Diana Prince? Why is the Department of Metahuman Affairs on a collision course with the wounded remnants of the Society of Super-Villains? All this plus monkey assassins in a story that spans the globe and shakes Diana to her core!

[acomicbookgirl]

I really hate to be difficult about this but that was the solitcitation of Wonder Woman #14.. Its in last month's Previews.. and it states in in this link (http://www.newsarama.com/dcnew/Nov07/solicitations.html) as well..

I got this from J. Torres comicspace bulletin (http://www.comicspace.com/jtorres/bulletins.php?action=read&id=23783):

WONDER WOMAN #13
"Mothers & Daughters"
Written by J. Torres; Art by Julian Lopez & Bit; Cover by Terry & Rachel Dodson

In this issue, the war with the Amazons may be over, but the wounds haven't even begun to heal. Wonder Woman has her hands full with anti-Amazon sentiment in America, much of it targeted toward Wonder Girl! When it comes to hate and fear, even a magic lasso can only do so much!

DC Universe | 32pg. | Color | $2.99 US

[ConorKilpatrick]

Guess you'll find out tomorrow. I suspect it's probably J. Torres and not Gail Simone.

[Labor_Days]

Looking at my pull list now and am pretty excited for all the books this week. Black Adam, Booster and GL have been really good. Want to see what happened to Ollie in GA/BC. Sorrow was great. Runaways, obviously. New Avengers, ehhh.


DC's site (http://www.dccomics.com/comics/?cm=8173), Comixology (http://www.comixology.com/sku/AUG070262/), Pull List.com (http://www.pulllist.com/comic/dc_comics/wonder_woman/13) all say Simone/Dodson begin their run on Wonder Woman #13 and I am hopeful.

[itsbecca]

Eeeexterminators. I'm all caught up after finishing the last trade that just came out and I'm salivating for more.

[CAM!]

Oooh I just noticed Black Summer #3 comes out as well!!

Sweet.

Is everything scheduled regularily, Columbus day causing no delays?

[Labor_Days]

Hey Becca, nice to have you back on the forums.

Exterminators still creeps me out. /hebejebes

[horatio616]

Personally, I can't wait for Black Canary Has a Cock #1.

[Six Gun]

Hey Becca, nice to have you back on the forums.

Exterminators still creeps me out. /hebejebes

There are so many Vertigo trades have have on my queue to pick up that it's maddening

[esophagus]

Dynamo 5, vol 1, Runaways #28 (It's been awhile), and, of course, Exterminators.

[Mikegraham6]

I'm really looking forward to New Avengers #35 and Green Lantern #24

Thank you. I took a short video game vacation from the board and really from the internet in general... and most other functions aside from sleeping and work. I'm getting better, but if I'm sparse in the future know that I've relapsed.


Also, exterminators most definitley gives me the heebeejeebes. That's part of why I love it. I'm constantly amazed at what they'll do.

bonus points to whoever gets the thread title reference

bonus points to whoever gets the thread title reference

For of men it may generally be affirmed, that they are thankless, fickle, false studious to avoid danger, greedy of gain, devoted to you while you are able to confer benefits upon them, and ready, as I said before, while danger is distant, to shed their blood, and sacrifice their property, their lives, and their children for you; but in the hour of need they turn against you.

[Labor_Days]

Machiavellian thread title.

[paper]

How Machiavellian.

I'm looking forward to....nothing. Sort of a lackluster week, but maybe I'll be surprised.

[kahunablair]

In the case of full disclosure I did not know the answer and googled the term, hence the fact that all I did was put the paragraph it was from.

How Machiavellian.

Is it bad that I get more excited on these weeks then the weeks in which I have a full stack of comics I love?
The anticipation of knowing that I'm going to be trying something different or new is just as great as picking up the New Avengers.

[Labor_Days]

I totally beat Paper to the title source.

I'm kinda looking forward (http://lecinemafantastique.blogspot.com/2007/10/pull-list-for-101007.html) to Sorrow the most. I loved Issue #1.

New Avengers is on the bubble for me. It's just not grabbing me anymore and it feels like I only read NA so I know what you guys are talking about.

[kahunablair]

I completely missed the fact that Sorrow #2 is coming out. Thanks for the gentle reminder Labor.

[paper]

Haha, I typed up the first line of my post, had to go to the bathroom, came back and typed the second line, posted too late.

[paper]

Somebody convince me to buy another book. I can't get excited about my current list:

COUNTDOWN 29
GREEN ARROW BLACK CANARY #1
NEW AVENGERS #35
RUNAWAYS #28

[kahunablair]

Have you tried Sorrow yet Paper?

[paper]

I was considering that one actually. If I can find the first one in my scary new downtown shop I'll give it a go.

[Labor_Days]

I'd say give Sorrow a shot. It's only two issues deep.

[paper]

Not sure if this has been posted already, but Suburban Glamour's finally coming out next week (the 17th) according to McKelvie's blog!

Woooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!

[kahunablair]

Oh, I got a first issue you can give a little look for. It's called Star-Lord. Interesting little book. I think Labor likes it.
I've heard good things.;)

[Labor_Days]

Star Lord is good. Kahuna tells no lie.

It might be up Paper's alley too. With it's throwback pulp space adventure feel and not too serious tone.

[kahunablair]

Did you read the Annihilation event last summer Labor?

[paper]

I have StarLord #1. I never read it though. Huh.

I like how I've gotten the reputation for not liking "seriousness". It is true though in most cases.

"Don't forget the funny" -- Paper's dad.

[Six Gun]

fact: Sorrow is my most anticipated trade right now

[Six Gun]

Kahuna, Paper and Labor get bonus points! :D

I actually respect Machiavelli, he wasn't nearly as harsh as The Prince would betray. Most of all he wanted his country to be free from the French/Spainish

[superfriend82]

Iam looking forword to GL#24 and New avengers.I like everybody else.

[Six Gun]

I like everybody else.

We like you too :D

[kahunablair]

All this talk of StarLord reminded me I had this little MSPaint doodle sitting around.
I "inked" the original concept sketch, but I haven't had a chance to color it. I'm thinking a cell shaded approach.

That's really, really good!

[Labor_Days]

Nope. But when you showed me that Raccoon with a chaingun- well, what right thinking man could argue with that?

True. The lens of history becomes clouded over time. A proper reading of his work really doesn't lend itself to the "scheme by any means" lazy shorthand the term Machiavellian has come to mean.

[Six Gun]

Nope. But when you showed me that Raccoon with a chaingun- well, what right thinking man could argue with that?


I never claimed to be right thinking... :)

[Luthor]

All about Booster and the Green(Lantern and Arrow) for me this week. Always look forward to Countdown.

[kahunablair]

Nope. But when you showed me that Raccoon with a chaingun- well, what right thinking man could argue with that?

Haha ok. I couldn't remember.

That's really, really good!
Thank you sir. It's really just a tracing, but I appreciate the kind words.

[Humphrey Lee]

Honestly? Nothing. Well, nothing new anyway. Apparently tomorrow's Absolute Sandman arrival means that my Amazon order of it should be shipping, but as for floppies, meh. X-FACTOR is probably the best book I'm getting and, as much as I love that book, that should never ever be the best book I get in a week. I really hate five week months...

[esophagus]

I really hate five week months...
That explains it! I'm a little slow, I guess. Things are definitely seeming stretched out this month.

I'm jealous of your Absolute Sandman.
