DD #88 - A little break before we get back into it. I'm a sucker for depth and this issue will be all about that.

Batman #656 - I'm glad to be back reading the Bat and Morrison/Kubert appear ready to deliver. A new direction for the character? I certainly like it when things are fresh.

NA #23 - The underlying mystery through the entire run of this book has been Jessica Drew. All of the rest of the characters are pretty clear. Where she's coming from isn't quite clear yet and that's probably why I'm still reading.

USM #99 -The cover alone should tell you things are going down in this issue. This book keeps verging on coming back. Hopefully this time it will follow through.

Ultimates Annual #2 - Last year this was the best of the Annuals. This year it won't have to do much to do it again.

Action Philosophers #6 - These don't come out very often but they are always very good. Highly recommended for anyone who likes more than just superhero books.

Thanks, everyone. The no spoilers comment was quite clever.

Considering this book usually focuses on Western philosophy, I was quite impressed with the Zen issue, in that it didn't come across with a Western bias.

Great book!!! Very Happy

Also, forgot to mention - my store didn't get the new "Fell" issue last week, so I'm hoping to pick that up on Thursday too.


Firstly, well done DD99, hearty congratulations!

Dave, its in, the Image books from last week have come, how dare they delay Fell and Battle Pope!

Have you seen that Sean Phillips will be in doing a signing? Wow, his work on Sleeper rocks, a must read for you.

Cheers.

I've got it now, cheers! It's a weird one isn't it? But I liked it.
