I thought it looked pretty interesting too. I just added it to my pull list. The only other thing I have ever read from Pulido is Evil Ernie, which I got a kick out of.

I am loving Emerald Warriors. More Bleez please! Question: Where have we seen Zardor before? He is a pretty powerful villain it would seem there is a back story there?

Is it just me or does it seem like Marvel is just throwing s**t at the wall and waiting for something to stick? This .1 thing is just that. Thumbing through the Marvel previews this month...I found absolutely nothing of interest. It's sad really. Hope somebody turns it around. I agree that their ma...

I wish I could say I'm surprised, but it just seems to be another example of the utter cluelessness of Marvel marketing.......

Basically Apple will be putting portable readership back a few years, and its a very bad thing. Hopefully the Android based tablets will help with that. I use Comixology on my Droid phone and have been very impressed with it. It will never take take the place of paper comics for me, but it does wha...

I agree with Fudd, I tried DCBS for a few months as well and found it to be huge hassle (not to mention they screwed up my first order pretty bad). Mostly I just like the ritual of going to the comic shop every week though. My LCS is awesome. The Comics Dungeon in Seattle, WA. They offer me a 20% di...

I like to keep current with all things DC, so I read my DC titles as they come out. I let the Marvel titles stack up for awhile and read them later. If a book is always late then I wait until I have them all. Remember All Star Batman and Robin? I think it was almost two years for those 9 issues to c...

Infestation #1 – Dan Abnett and Andy Lanning have become a “name” to me now. If I see something with their name on it I buy it. That said, I was skeptical about Infestation…another zombie story? I wasn’t so sure I needed another zombie book. BUT, I really liked the kickoff issue of Infestation. I t...

from CBR, "not counting any additional one shots or monthly series tie-ins. That means full immersion in the event will cost readers a minimum of $149.50 at DC's current $2.99-a-comics price point." but spread out over 5 months, it's not too bad. I will probably get all of them. Haven't fu...

I will chime in as I might be one of the few people here that keep a box/ pull list at my LCS. I have a great shop that is well stocked with comics, trades, toys, statues, t-shirts and back issues. I get a discount for being a box customer. I subscribe to about 30 titles a month and purchase about 5...

Chris and Juan FC episode

Great job guys. I just got the Final Crisis hardcover. I really wish they could have put in those two pertinent Batman issues, but I guess those are part of Batman RIP too? I don't know I didn't read RIP. I got a much better grasp on the story after reading the hardcover. I plan to read it again! I'...

And did you guys notice, along with Batman... Batman Confidential, and Batman : The Unseen, will be twice monthly in October and November. What could the reason be for this? Do they want to bump up the sales figures at the end of the year?

Batman - Haven't read lately Detective - I'm diggin it. The "Alice" villain is cool, and I'm into what Rucka has done so far. ..and the art is outstanding. Batman and Robin - The best Bat-Book right now, hands down. I dropped all the Bat titles during RIP, and hesitated to buy this when I ...

Ultimate Avengers Comics #1 - Also quite entertaining with a nice cliffhanger. Solid story and art. Yeah, I think I'll go to the comic shop and buy that. You guys are giving it the green light, so, even though I was going to be done with the Ultimate line....I guess I'll give it another shot. I pic...
