Every month, I go through Diamond's Previews to figure out what I want.
From now until, I will blog about what I see that catches my attention.
Keep in mind that most of my comic buying consist of #1s, collected
editions (hardcovers or TPBs), or OGN (original graphic novels). I buy
#1s to see if it's something that I will get later in a collected
edition
This is the Rest of Previews (not Dark Horse, DC, Image, Marvel) Edition.
page 186: Echo #18 (Abstract) Terry Moore won me over with Strangers in Paradise and he kept the ball rolling with his Marvel books and now with Echo.
page 188: The Black Coat: Or Give Me Death... #3 (Ape) Writer
Ben Lichus is a local, so my local comic book store carries Black Coat.
Even if they didn't support it and even if Ben wasn't local, I'd be
interested in this Revolutionary War "super" hero tale.
page 202: Fearless Dawn #1 (Asylum) Fearless
Dawn is one of the many features from the Bomb mini series (and now
TPB). I've been following Steve Mannion's career for years and still
anxiously await everything that he does.
page 228: The Incredibles: City of Incredibles TP (Boom!) I
hate ... hate ... HATE the Boom! collections. They are too small to be
regular size, but not small enough to be digest. However, I love the
Incredibles and my kids do as well.
page 229: The Mupper Show: The Treasure of Peg-Leg Wilson TP (Boom!) see the previous comment.
page 241: Buck Rogers #6 (Dynamite) Dynamite won me over with the #0 issue of this series. I anxiously await the collected edition.
page 246: The Talisman: The Road of Trials #1 (Del Rey)
The
Talisman is one of my favorite King books. I'll be checking out this
first issue to see if this series will be worth getting in collected
format later.
page 255: Bloodrayne: Revenge of the Butcheress (Digital Webbing) I buy all Digital Webbing books and you should too as some of the best new talent in the industry comes from Digital Webbing.
page 271: Grimjack: The Manx Cat #4
I
already own the ComicMix version of this series, but I'll buy it again
when IDW collects it so that it matches my other Grimjack trades. I
love Tim Truman and I love his work with Ostrander on Grimjack. That's
all it takes for me. I think the greatest strength of Grimjack is that
Cynosure can be used to tell a story in any genre.
That's it for me and Previews this month. Catch me next month.
