Thanks to the double-shipping MADNESS and the announcement about the upcoming X-Men/Avengers crossover, I may drop all the x-titles. Which makes me sad, I just started collecting these again and they're fun to read... I love Marvel characters but Marvel Inc. can be really, really frustrating.

FERALS #2
CROSSED: PSYCHOPATH #7

I skipped Ferals because it's werewolves. I was sorely tempted because it's Lapham. When you get issue 1 if you post something in the thread for 1st issue reviews that would be cool. I'm probably going to pick this up in trade depending on how people feel about it.

I think the Crossed: Psychopath #7 is a reprint (auxiliary edition), so double-check that you didn't already order this unless you want all of the variant covers.

[torchsong]

Pulled some of the DC titles (Batgirl, JL Dark, etc) and Ninjettes in favor of a couple trades.

Tick Summer Specials - My 2012 goal is to collect all the Tick trades. They don't get a heavy discount as a rule so I'm grabbing what I can WHEN I can.

Hyper_Actives - This is a compilation of all the issues from the now defunct Alias line of comics. I loved this series because it very tongue-in-cheekly skewered all things 90s comics. From girls with impossible proportions and inappropriate outfits to beefy guys who couldn't fit comfortably in a compact automobile, this book hit upon damn near everything you loved to hate about the 90s.

Titans Omnibus Vol 2 - I was patting myself on the back for having an order on the cheap then I forgot THIS was being solicited. Argh! So much for that!

Sure, I'll post a review when it comes out. As for Crossed, thanks for the heads up but I don't actually order these comics but rather have them on my pull. so for this list I pretend i'm ordering and I saw Crossed #7 but didn't notice if it's a reprint. I think they're all behind anyway so no real clue when it will come out.

[BobBretall]

JUSTICE LEAGUE #6 (no more Jim Lee )

I'm pretty sure he's just taking a couple of issues off for a breather. He'll be back.
