I'm really excited for some of those newly announced Image comics. Both Remember series sound great. I will also have to pick up Aaron's Southern Bastards.

Yeah for sure, all three of those are must buys for me. Latour on the art for Southern is going to be great.

Is Latour one of the main BPRD artists? I think that is where I recognize the name. I haven't started that yet. I need to read Hellboy Library vol 3 first.
Fraction's Odyssey series sounds interesting as well. He is going to be on so many titles by then if he doesn't leave any.

Dont forget his series with Tocchini! And he said he wants to do a western series with Tony Moore according to Rich Johnston.

I remember seeing a promo pic of the Tocchini is it a Image title ? A reunion with Tony Moore would be great as-well.

Caught up on my reading a bit today.
Astro City #2: This is the part where I thank all the people who gushed about the brilliance of this series. Y'all inspired me to give it a 5 issue trial (There's a review of Astro City #1 on the Comic Geek Speak podcast that alone would prompt most anyone to do the same). This book has an odd charm. I'm not suggesting that this particular issue will knock-your-socks-off, but it was a fun read, and I'm getting a good feeling about the series.
Suicide Squad #22: Whew, what break-neck speed this book clips at! It's just what you would expect of a story that takes place in Las Vegas. Looking forward to #23 (even though I'll be dropping after Kot's run).
Fearless Defenders #6: This one felt like the writers wanted to craft a perfect jumping off point for those on the fence about sticking with the series. All wrapped in a bow.
Good chance this was my last FD book.
Gotta cut the fat. Make room for these promising upcoming titles.

There's the pages of exposition at the end where supporting characters are standing around listening to a monologue like actors in bad season 7 Buffy episode. At least there's fighting. Or, well, an ass-kicking. But they killed off my Annabelle.

I like the way you think. Peter's kind of boring next to other more interesting Spider-Men like Otto, Ben Reilly & Kaine.

I just saw this too. So excited, looks like I'll be adding another IDW book to my list. IDW and Image taking too much of my money this year, probably gonna cut a marvel book.

This week's Young Avengers was downright amazing. I think this might be my #3 Marvel book behind X-Factor and Daredevil.
It's such a joyous read every issue, and that credits page was the best I've ever seen. You can just tell how much fun Gillen and McKelvie are having with this.

My impression of Locke and Key volume 1: Oh my goodness why did I wait so long to start reading this.
The temptation to go order every remaining volume is sizable.

So, I was checking out the Inhumans reaction on CBR, and one person pointed out - this could be the MCU's way of having mutants without having mutants. It's brilliant, I think.
Jim Zub is a pretty inspired choice. His Skullkickers comic is really fun, if he channels some of that magic, Samurai Jack is going to be awesome.

Gahh Hickman Fantastic Four sale. So tempting but I pre-ordered the omnibus, I should probably wait for that. Damn.
Clearly the comics gods decided I wasn't already spending enough money. So in for this.

As a massive Genndy Tartakovsky fan and a massive Samurai Jack fan let me say I have a massive boner for this right now.

New interviews with Keatinge, Revel and Kindt on their Marvel Knights ventures.
Keatinge on MK Hulk (CBR)
Kindt on MK Spider-Man (CBR)
Revel on MK X-Men (CBR)
I think he prefers DC heroes.

Well, I'm intrigued by the X-men one, and on board with the Spidey one. Liked that it didn't beat around the bush, straight up said its Peter Parker Spider-Man.

So this Vampire Jubilee is here to stay huh? Ugh. What a terrible character assassination.
It doesn't really seem like he wants to. I mean, he's created a handful of characters in the DCU, but I don't think his particular brand of storytelling and worldbuilding would be as potent outside of the DCU. His Avengers run was okay and he did a pretty decent Vision mini-series with Ethan Van Sciver, but he really didn't hit his stride until the latter half of the 00s when he had JSA, his first Green Lantern volume and The Flash going at the same time.

I agree with that dude on CBR.
Peter Parker, you say? Bought, I respond.

Had to go back and reread JL#22. Man. MAN. MAN. Those Superman/Shazam pages. Sogood.gif. Why isn't there a Shazam solo book right now? This is a fucking tragedy.

I started his run on Teen Titans last night and its pretty good.
I decided to re-read Infinite Crisis, and am making my way through the OMAC Project miniseries. I love how DC had the balls to interrupt the story after issue 3 and say "Hey, you know this 6 issue mini you have been reading? If you really want to follow the story, you need to buy 4 extra issues of Superman and Wonder Woman comics before you start issue #4". Whenever I am annoyed at pointless tie in issues for Batman or something else, I will try to remember that it could be worse. At least they are no longer making tie-in mini series to a tie-in mini-series.
That said, I miss Rucka working on the DCU.

Guess that's going to be it then for the ultimate uni. :|
Slott can stay on Spidey as long as he wants. His run has been awesome so far. Hell I like Spock more then Peter.

Brevoort says Ultimates isn't cancelled... well, we'll see next week. I have my doubts.
Guessing that there'll be one token remaining Ultimate book, "Ultimate Spider-Man and the Ultimates" or something along those lines, but if Marvel is really crazy enough to try the third major multi-book Ultimate relaunch in four years... well, they'll get the sales they deserve.

Also, when I reread all of East of West last night, I came to the conclusion that I might do that everytime a new one comes out. Like many of you have said, holding that paper and flipping the pages is so good.
I could see ult characters coming to the reg universe. That way ultimate is canceled but not canceled :|
Hope I'm wrong but with sales so low... :\
There's no room for the Ultimates in the regular Marvel U, unless it was some sort of one-time miniseries crossover. Miles could have a spot in regular continuity (even though I think that he would eventually fade into obscurity), but the rest of those characters are better of dead if they are going to scrap the line.
