I'm currently working on a new subject structure for the blog.  I've got a couple of ideas that I'm kicking around that should give this a better focus.  There are already plenty of people that highlight weekly books, I'd like to try and do something different, but still relevant.

New Comics for 8/18

Whew - finally a week with no TPBs coming out .... My stack is getting way big.

Amazing Spider-Man #640
Batman Beyond #3 (OF 6) - this series is just cool - 'nuff said!
Batman Streets Of Gotham #15 - The best Batman book on the stands right now.  It's a shame it looks like it is going away after Bruce comes back.
Chew #13
Darkwing Duck #3
dv8 Gods And Monsters #5 - I don't really care anymore, but I figured I'm 1/2 way through, might as well just finish it up
Green Lantern Corps #51
Image United #3 (OF 6) - I never thought this would come out!
Justice Society Of America #42
New Avengers #3
New Mutants #16
Secret Avengers #4 - After a weak issue #3 I sincerely hope the series picks up again.
Supergirl #55
Thunderbolts #147
Tiny Titans #31
Uncanny X-Men #527
Wolverine Weapon X #16

My Comics for 8/11

Wow - only 16 books this week and 1 TPB.  It looks like there are going to be a couple strong books and a couple that are going to be a bit rough.
 

Astounding Wolf-Man #24
Comic Book Guy The Comic Book #2 (OF 5)
Daytripper #9 (OF 10)
Dungeons And Dragons #0
Green Lantern Emerald Warriors #1
Hack Slash My First Maniac #3 (OF 4)
Invincible Iron Man #29
Mediterranea #1
Morning Glories #1
Route Des Maisons Rouges #1 (OF 4)
Steve Rogers Super-Soldier #2 (OF 4)
Superman #702
Thanos Imperative #3 (OF 6)
Thor Mighty Avenger #3
Ultimate Comics Spider-Man #13
Unwritten Tp Vol 02 Inside Man
X-Force Sex And Violence #2 (OF 3)
 
Daytripper #9 is the second to last issue of the series.  I've yet to read a bad issue and I'm saddened to think that this series is wrapping up in only one issue.  As upset as I might be about this, I'm achingly curious to see how the series is going to wrap up.  Is it possible that Bras might be allowed to survive at the end of the final issue?
 
The art spectacular of Thor, the Mighty Avenger continues this week.  I've been a late comer to the Samnee bandwagon, but I've been catching up with this series.  I just wish there was a good place online to find his original pages.
 
Lastly, I'm waiting to see what kind of train wreck Superman #702 turns into.  As Superman continues his stroll across our heartland, what new lessons will he learn?  Will he finally bond with the little people?  Does anyone really care?

Friday review to soon follow.
