Ah hell... bigger week than I'm used to... $6 Soleil book, and a $10 sketch book, but a decent amount of series ending for me.
What I'm getting this week:
BATMAN CONFIDENTIAL #42 -- Sam Kieth Goodness CHEW #9 -- Not sure how long this will be entertaining for... might cancel it soon CROSSED #9 (OF 9) -- Sad to see this go... but REALLY looking forward to this issue DAFFODIL #3 (OF 3) -- Much better than it has any right to be. (Soleil title) DETECTIVE COMICS #862 -- Jock's art is good, but I miss JH Williams JUSTICE LEAGUE CRY FOR JUSTICE #7 (OF 7) -- Showed a lot of promise, not as good as I had hoped, but still worth the read SAM KIETH SKETCHBOOKS VOL 01 -- More Kieth goodness!
What I'm getting when it comes out in trade: DEMO VOL 2 #2 (OF 6) -- Recently read Demo Vol1, can't wait for more INVINCIBLE IRON MAN #24 -- Fraction is great LOCKE & KEY CROWN OF SHADOWS #3 -- Love this series! Still waiting for the second series to be in paperback
Small week for me. DETECTIVE COMICS #862. I concur with Warped, but I'm mainly there due to Rucka. BUFFY #33. I'm a little worried about Meltzer's writing here because he's out of his wheel house, but part one was pretty good. FIRST WAVE #1. I've really liked the previews so I'm all in.

Will also be getting these trades
AMAZING SPIDER-MAN : AMERICAN SON TPB - Only series I pick up exclusively in trade INVINCIBLE IRON MAN HC VOL. 1 - Collects #1-19
BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER #33 TWILIGHT PT 2 (OF 5) - Ya know this series has really FELT like an actual Buffy t.v. season. It started out exciting, through the middle it kinda lost steam and trudged along, and now it's really picking up again and it's super fun to read ^_^
Some of the preview covers are depicting the ladies of the crossed world (at last) and the authors have played beautifully with the most trysted horror we associate with feminine spite (culturally).
Adventure Comics-Alot of fun, i've always dug the character. Chew-One of my favorite books coming out. It's written like a great cable series, and the art is suhweet. Crossed-This book makes my soul hurt every issue. I'm looking forward to how Ennis wraps it up. Also looking forward to the David Lapham arc. God Complex-Another book that's just a fun read. Sam Kieth Sketchbooks-I love love love Sam Kieth. One of the first artists I actively searched for when I got into comics. Stephen King's N-I loved the shirt story, and I pick up any King comic adaptation. Sweet Tooth- What an insanely good book. Vertgio has been putting out stuff in the past few years right up there with their 90's stuff, IMO.
Adventure Comics #8 Boys #40 - Interested to see where this goes now that Butcher knows about Hughie's GF Crossed #9 Demo #2 Detective Comics #862 - Echoing what everyone is saying about Williams being off this arc. Do Androids Dream Of Electric Sheep #9 - Any idea how many more issues of this are left? First Wave #1 - The previews looked pretty, I'll give it a try. Great Ten #5 Invincible Iron Man #24 Justice League Cry For Justice #7 Justice League International Vol 4 TP Last Days Of Animal Man TP Milestone Forever #2 - R.I.P., Dakota Nemesis The Imposters #1 - Hope they keep the trippy "Prisoner"-esque vibe from the last mini. Punisher MAX Butterfly #1
Zip -- yeah, that's what I figure... I'll give it a flip through at my local shop. Assuming they get it in, that is. (I think I'm the only reason they get Crossed in right now... which seems wrong to me.)
I also realized last night that after getting in the first 8 issues with the regular cover they, for some reason, ordered the wrap cover of this one. Which makes me glad that I have another shop that I pass on the way home from work.
Invincible Iron Man #24 (also getting the big damn hardcover this week) Demo v.2 #2 First Wave #1 (This is the DC pulp thing, yes? I have a soft spot for these characters, especially the Spirit and the Blackhawks, and I can't wait to see what Azzarello does with them.)
