In random news, I'm getting seriously tempted to write an article on the world views of the DC and Marvel superhero universes, as illustrated by the musical Sweet Charity. It would be very very bad, but it'd certainly be different.



Detective Comics #845 (Batman RIP tie-in)

Manhunter #31 (...and suddenly a hidden choir starts bellowing the "Ode to Joy". I really really REALLY don't want to buy this in single issues, but on the other hand, I'd really really really like them to keep publishing it, so I guess I'm stuck.)

Nightwing #145 (Batman RIP tie-in, maybe)

Robin Spoiler Special #1 (well, after that last Robin, there ought to be a special, oughtn't there? Surprised there wasn't more fuss in various weblogs, though.)

Trinity #1, $2.99

House of Mystery #2

Brit #6

Buffy the Vampire Slayer #15 (in which Giant Dawn rampages across Tokyo, I think.)

Contract #0 (...I have no idea what that is, but we'll see.)

Devi #20 (more fighting!)

Negative Burn #19

Rogue Angel Teller of Tales #4 (I really like this series. Couldn't quite explain why, and it's gotten me to buy the omnibus of the first three fiction books of the series.)

Salem #1 (...Maybe. I liked issue 0 -- which, in the nature of these things lately, was the sort of plot-and-character-heavy issue that means if you read issue 1 without having seen issue 0, you're probably going to be lost.)

Scream Queen #1 (...maybe. Probably.)

Complete Next Men vol. 1 (...maybe.)

Tales from the Starlight Drive In TPB, $19.99 (...maybe)

Wormwood Calamari Rising (...possibly. Probably. I have a weakness for the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse and a story with a prologue that ends, "And the horsemen did look upon the earth, and see much in the way of entertainment, hookers and blow. And it was good.")

And, in closing...
