[jon carroll]

My preliminary order is huge. 64 books (usually around 52), 7 trades (usually 1 or none). This month is going to hurt, but.....

Got 5 series ending.

6 storylines ending and dropping.

I don't have my final list of books that I am going to pre-order, but I already see that I have cut my list. I try to keep my order between 60 to 70 and I have over 80 comics easily.

One my frustrations is the number of comics published by DC and Marvel that are the "same" character or family. Do we really need to Batman Annuals the same month that we get two issues of Batman? It is getting to be like the 90s where you have to decided what to get based on overall "family" of titles.

Sorry for the rant. At least the good news is that there are a lot of good books to choose from.

[BobBretall]

Decent sized month for me, some really cool things:

* Casper the Friendly Ghost 60th Ann HC .... 2 Casper 1st issues, in Hardcover for $4.97!!!!
* Warlord #7 - Mike Grell back doing the art on Warlord!!!!
* Sergio Aragones coming on board with Bart Simpson #50
* New Greg Rucka series: Stumptown #1
* FVZA #1 from Radical.....Read a preview copy of #1, this series is awesome.
* Rocketeer Complete Collection (Deluxe Edition, baby!!)

Some things I didn't order because I already have them:
* Hatter M Vol. 2 GN (I bought this from Frank Beddor @ SDCC & it's pretty awesome, so no need to order it here)
* Life & Times of Scrooge McDuck (I have a previous HC edition of this)

DC COMICS CLASSICS LIBRARY: SHAZAM! – THE MONSTER SOCIETY OF EVIL HC
Written by Otto Binder
Art and cover by C.C. Beck
At last, DC Comics collects the legendary serialized story from the pages of CAPTAIN MARVEL ADVENTURES #22-46 (1943-1945). The Big Red Cheese battles foe after foe as he inches his way toward the malevolent force behind it all: the two-inch long, superintelligent worm known as Mr. Mind!
Advance-solicited; on sale December 23 • 272 pg, FC, $39.99 US

Has Bob, John or anyone else read this story before? I brief check online shows that that a previous collection of this is going for about $175 to $250. This new collection is on sale at DCBS for $19.99.

It seems like a fun golden age story. The history on Captain and the original publisher Fawcett Comics is very interesting. It's a bit long though. It actually ties in to the recent Marvelman press release from Marvel. Captain Marvel being a inspiration for Marvelman. You can read about it of course at Wikipedia.

Yes, I've read it (I have that previous slipcased HC that is going for the big $$)

While I don't normally love golden age stuff (I like it, just don't LOVE it), I found this to be a really engaging story. Probably my favorite from pre-silver age.

Are these any good?
SOUL KISS HC VOL 01 *Special Discount* $29.99 50% $14.99
STAR TREK CREW TP *Special Discount* $19.99 50% $9.99

I liked Soul Kiss, but I can see it not being for everyone. If you like the art style you'll be more than half way to enjoying it.
Star Trek Crew was very good (I thought), primarily for hardcore "classic trek" fans. I think John Byrne does a good job on Star Trek comics.

These look good, I'm thinking of buying the first issue and if it is good, then WFTT:
JERICHO SEASON 3 #1 (OF 6) A CVR WEST $3.99 50% $1.99 (I liked the show)
STUMPTOWN #1 (MR) *Special Discount* $3.99 50% $1.99
HAUNT #1 $2.99 75% $0.74 (new Kirkman)

I'm not a Jericho watcher, so I'm passing on that. A new Rucka series I will buy just because it is Rucka. Haunt, I'll try out #1 before I order #2+

What's the scoop on these?
SHORT STACK Tales Of A Super-Human Plumber $3.50 50% $1.75
LIBERTY COMICS A CBLDF BENEFIT BOOK #2 (MR) $4.99 40% $2.99
LIBERTY COMICS A CBLDF BENEFIT BOOK #1 (NEW PTG) $3.99 40% $2.39

No idea on the plumber book, I skipped that one by. Liberty Comics is short stories by well known creators and it goes to support the Comic Book Legal Defense Fund. Buy it.

I have the originals, but I'll bet this will be an awesome collection:
ROCKETEER COMPLETE COLLECTION HC VOL 01 $29.99 50% $14.99

Yes, and the Deluxe edition with an extra 100 pages of sketches & concept art will be even more AWESOME......
