I've had pull lists before, but I had an epiphany one day and now I just buy whatever covers I like each week like I did when I was 12. I don't care about jumping on points or arcs. Not for everyone, but it works for me.
this may be the start of it, there are a few more "stories" on it:

but there might be other spoiler places out there.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ but buying things based on the cover like when i was a kid led me to hating comics.

I've seen them pop up on 4chan and CBR so far. No concrete evidence of their validity (in other words, no pictures), but multiple people chiming in on the particulars. They've said who gets it, who gives it to them and how, and potentially why.
EDIT: Not the stuff Rich has been reporting. Actual comic spoilers.
Ah just Rich's stuff. I've already seen that.
-e-
Found it on CBR, that's exactly the character I expected to be involved. Can't wait to read the issue tomorrow.
Thank you friend!

Yes planned from the start, people do four issues and then quit a new book all the time.
"what are you referring to?"
lol, Jesus. Twitter is not the platform to properly answer that question.
I'm sure DiDio had it been planned from the start

More than some artists AMIRITE Marvel? lolol
Sometimes it works in our favor though. I probably would have dropped UXM by now if it was Bachalo all the time.

And sometimes people write a whole 35-issue run of Uncanny X-Force that turns out to be the best thing ever.

I almost forgot to make a list this week. Probably because I can't make it to the shop tomorrow, and won't until Pacific Rim Day.
Marvel Comics
Daredevil #28
Hawkeye #12
Indestructible Hulk #10
Young Avengers #7
Yay, light week means I can buy tickets to more showings, guilt-free!

Pacific Rim for you too, huh? I'm probably going to catch it Thursday night. Can't decide between regular or IMAX, though. I haven't been to see an IMAX movie in ages and have no idea whether or not the glasses they use still make everything super-dark.

Aquaman #21 was enjoyable but i don't think i'd miss the book if i dropped it. I've never really liked this book, the opening Trench arc didn't really do much with the villains Johns brought in, The Others was interesting but serious Aquaman was hard to root for, the JL crossover was dumb but decent fun, and now we're at the forth or so arc and a book i never was fully on board with seems to have lost me despite this arc being the most interesting yet.
Mera is back with her people under the birmuda triangle in which the new villain followed her, who likes to tell people how important he is. Aquaman followed mera there, his brother is in prison, and now subs are out to get an unguarded atlantis. My chief complaint: Not much has been built up or dictated being important. Villain's a dude, Aquabrother Arn doesn't really have any interesting interaction while he's in prison outside of one panel where he watches water pour out of the sink....there's not much actually going on in this story full of things that are supposed to be going on.
Hopefully he'll be done with Barry fast enough to help Katana cause that poor woman is going to get her shit wrecked by Wonder Woman.

The comics are fine. I enjoyed them. And I should say that while I enjoyed most of the core four books, I can understand those who didn't like Xenocide or Children of the Mind as much; Speaker for the Dead, however, is great. One should read it and Ender's Game, at the very least.
huff obscene amounts of airplane glue and talk to yourself in the mirror. there you go. now anyone can talk to didio!

I think Ender's Shadow is pretty much essential too.

I could see the case being made for that, yeah.
For awhile they really seemed to be pushing the comics too. I think at some point they even did a spin off series based on one of the Formic invasions (Burning Earth or something?) Then they just stopped. Not sure if it was because of sales or they just were done.
Just read Justice League (thank you comixology for updating at midnight) and the spoilers/speculation about
role in sparking the Trinity War were correct, however there is clearly more going on than what appears to be (we're even told as much on the last page). There is actually quite a bit that happens in this issue, including what likely draws JLD into the fray. I'm looking forward to reading all of your impressions, but I really enjoyed it. Really looking forward to JLA next week.

Negative hype levels. At least it won't hurt when it gets cancelled.

52 is the next chapter of her story after Gotham Central, it picks up right from the end and follows her as she becomes the question (as well as 5 or 6 other plotlines, but it's a good series honest). Then the Crime Bible 5 Books of Blood is next, that's a 52 Aftermath book and tidies up some of the stuff left over. There was a Montoya-Question backup in Rucka's Batwoman run, and then she pops up again both in Final Crisis and the FC: Revelations mini.
It sounds like a lot of stuff, and it kinda is, but I remember enjoying it all as it was coming out. There was also a miniseries called Huntress: Cry for Blood that has Hunty and the old Question, but I can't remember if renee was init or not, but it's a good book in the Rucka-verse.
Also, have you read No Man's Land? If you're a Renee completest you might enjoy it, it's the first place Rucka starts to use her, and it sets up Two-Face's obsession with her that is picked up later in GC.

Young Avengers continues to make me pity the haters. Prodigy should be a great addition to the book.
Daredevil and Hawkeye both great this week, Avengers Arena and Superior Spider-Man next! Love it when all my favourite books come at once. Although my wallet doesn't. It does make waiting another month for the next issues harder but it's so good when that week rolls around and you have all these great stories to read.
Edit: And Avengers Arena is awesome too. Great little twist there!

Look for me on the local news, I'll be the guy arrested for trying to burn down a Nintendo exec's house.
I had forgotten how far he'd fallen. JPEG compression to fucko backgrounds ganked from who knows where, actual fucking usage of stock lens flare photoshop effects, cannot even be bothered to colour in eye whites. Just.... please Marvel, tell this man he is not allowed to color his own book. I think you can fucking spring for a colorist.

I sont want to be on the news, I want to BE the news.
Really ? Because I feel like his color and design work really managed to push the pathos of the issue that bit further. Mutant propaganda by way of teenage drama, which is exactly what I want from this incarnation of Uncanny.
