Does anyone else find IDW's tendency to do stuff like this tiresome?
MARS ATTACKS POPEYE
The weekly event of the year starts on the second day of the year! Mars Attacks Martians invade five different IDW timelines and universes this month, starting with their assault on Sweethaven. How can Popeye, Alice the Goon, the Sea Hag the rest of the one-eyed sailor's friends and foes possibly contend with this threat from beyond the stars?
MARS ATTACKS ZOMBIES VS ROBOTS
The only thing worse than Earth having an inter-dimensional stargate that led to the Zombies vs Robots catastrophe are Martians using one of their own to lead a sneak attack on Earth. But what will happen when zombies get a scent of those big, exposed Martian brains...? Zombie-Robot-Martian chaos from the co-creator of ZvR, Chris Ryall, and TMNT artist Andy Kuhn!
MARS ATTACKS KISS
The weekly invasion continues here! In 1970s New York, four teens are handed the power to become godlike figures... unless some attacking Martians find a way to steal that power for themselves! A tale torn from the original 1976 Kiss comic, courtesy of Chris "God of Thunder" Ryall and Alan "War Machine" Robinson!
MARS ATTACKS THE REAL GHOSTBUSTERS
Something even stranger is in the neighborhood when the restless spirits of some merciless Martians are stirred from their slumber to attack again! It's up to the REAL Ghostbusters to save New Jersey from this angry red threat. Well... Â if they must.
MARS ATTACKS THE TRANSFORMERS
The weekly invasion continues: AUTOBOTS vs. DECEPTICONS vs... MARTIANS?! The invaders from Mars take advantage of the colossal Cybertronian's conflict and begin their assault on Earth in full force. It's Martian vs. Machine as the audacious Autobots and the devilish Decepticons begrudgingly join forces to repel the inhuman invaders and save the planet!
I am going to try out the new John Byrne space series:
THE HIGH WAYS #1
John Byrne (w & a & c)
Humanity has not yet reached for the stars, but the Solar System is still a busy, exciting, and sometimes very dangerous place, as young Eddie Wallace is about to discover, when he joins the crew of a freighter that hauls cargo along THE HIGH WAYS. John Byrne's all-new, space-faring series begins here!

well. At least it yielded this:

Please do not hot-link images - Bob

The problem with hotlinking is that the people on the other end of the hotlink generally do one of 2 things
1) Move the pic so the hotlink doesn't work (that's what happened in your case, the picture was not showing up in the post when I was reading it)
2) substitute the original hotlinked pic with something really nasty that is not what you ha intended to link to & share.
In general, if you want to share a pic from the internet, upload it to your photobucket (or whatever) account & link it from there.

It is also generally considered to be almost "stealing" bandwidth. If you were to hotlink to something on this site, I'm the one who would end up paying any bandwidth costs, not you or the site you hotlinked from. People generally frown on that.
Ok I have a couple I'll be recording for in the next couple of nights...
You beat me to Orius so I'll leave that but I'm in for:
Morbius #1
Avatar TPB (from the TV show)
Batman Beyond #12
and I might do something for the new LDD's coming out.
FYI, I might be a little late getting on the call tonight. I've got two errands I have to run on the way home tonight. I'll get online as soon as I can.
