Skitch Commentary – Real light week for me with just Aquaman, Teen Titans, and New Guardians. Makes up for next week where I am buying three NEW titles from DC alone (Earth 2, World’s Finest, and Dial H). Actually, I even dropped most of my wait a month books for week 4. I like Voodoo, Justice League Dark, and I Vampire, but there are other books I’d rather read (especially with Night of the Owls starting). Still buying Flash a month later though.

Skitch Commentary – Strange that four different issues of Secret Avengers are coming out on the same week (mostly end prints). They should have spread those out a little better. Actually, looking at the list, there are a ton of 2nd prints coming out this week.

– Really, the only think I am reading from Marvel this week is Daredevil 11. I’ve really enjoyed the first two parts of Omega Effect, so looking forward to seeing how Waid’s end it.

– Darkhawk Classic Trade!! Nice to see that! I love that Marvel seems to be doing more to bring attention to their 90’s books, like New Warriors being available digitally. Sleepwalker needs to be next on that list!

– AvX “fight book” starts this week, so I’m sure that will do well. Not sure why a twelve issue series with dozens of crossovers can’t manage to show those fights someplace else, but that’s Marvel for you. Squeeze every penny they can get from readers too willing to give them up.
