I didn't consciously drop any series this past month, so I think that more books have been ending (or have #1s that I chose not to continue with) than new #1s adding to my pull, since my overall # of comics is down this month.
DC: 31 (down 3 from last month)
Vertigo: 7 (up 1 from last month)
Marvel: 10 (up 1 from last month)
==> "Big 2" - 48 comics (down 1 from last month)
Dark Horse: 5 (down 1 from last month)
IDW :5 (up 1 from last month)
Image: 25 (same as last month)
Other Indies: 30 (down 2 from last month)
==> Indies - 65 (down 3 from last month)
TOTAL COMICS: 113 (down 3 from last month)

**edited to include my list**
Still making adjustments to my list, so I will update it when I finalize it, but one thing I noticed is that DCBS has Uncanny Avengers for 0.99. When you realize that includes a digital copy, I think that I will absolutely go ahead and give this one a try for a buck!

You make a good point. I've added this, I'll try out #1 for a buck. (I do like to call this book "Uncanny X-Vengers", though)yensid4disney wrote:Still making adjustments to my list, so I will update it when I finalize it, but one thing I noticed is that DCBS has Uncanny Avengers for 0.99.

Something I will NOT try, even for $1, is A+X #1
I also might have been tempted to try Marvel Now! Point One #1 if it was 75% off, but I can easily resist this at 50% off. I don't recall anyone raving about how great it's predecessor Point One #1 was.

This looks really cool. Whilce on art that is hopefully all in the can before soliciting, and a potentially cool story about toys. When I submit clips to the Previews episode I can't listen to myself, otherwise I would have submitted a clip about this one.

I've decided to start dropping off single titles and go back to getting books in trade, so I'm looking for jumping off points for many books.
Saying goodbye to: Aquaman, World's Finest, Red Hood, Dejah Thoris, and after this month I'll cease picking up Warlord of Mars. I've loved the martian books and they've really done the series justice, but it's really time to scale back. I may pick these up digitally, though, so it's farewell, not goodbye.
Not giving up on: Wonder Woman, Supergirl...they're still too good to pass on. Also going to vote with my dollars on Sword of Sorcery.
Trades Galore: Fairest, Excel Saga 23, Ghost Omnibus 3, 21st Century Boys Vol. 01
The last statue I'll pick up for a while: I picked up the Power Girl statue from Kotobukiya last month, so I need ("Need"...yeesh!
) the Huntress statue to go with her.
