Westfield order

[yendi]

Westfield, already the best mail-order comic company I've dealt with, earned extra cool points with us, as they extended the deadline this month, allowing us to make our order (we were way broke). So, our order for June (with some annotations):

Batman: Nevermore 2

Batman and Poe. Elseworlds still has some potential.

Cartoon Cartoons 18
H-E-R-O 4
JSA: All-Stars 1


The JSA miniseries looks to be a multi-author take on the type of story Ostrander told for the JLA two years ago with Incarnations (and Ostrander is one of about three people qualified to write the JLA, imho, to digress a bit). There are some nifty folks working on this series, including a certain Pulitzer-prize winning author who's been associated with super-heroes before.

Looney Tunes 102
Powerpuff Girls 38


Both for Miss Kid, of course.

American Century 23
American Century 24


GIven the impending cancellation, I can't count on TPBs anymore. Too bad. It's a great series.

Beware the Creeper 2
Blood and Water 3
Fables 13


Transmetropolitan Vol. 8: Dirge (tpb)
Global Frequency 8
Reload 3


Not that we read Warren Ellis in our house or anything.

Agent X 11


Another soon-to-be-cancelled book. But Evan Dorkin is always worth a read.

Amazing Spider-Man 53
Daredevil 47
Fantastic Four 69
Incredible Hulk 54
New Mutants 1

I know that the odds of it sucking are high (other than X-Force/Statix, you have to go back to X-Factor 72 to find a new/relaunched X-Book that's worth reading), but I have to give it a try.

Runaways 2
Wolverine 1


I read the preview that was in shadesong's Wizard, and it was amazing. Rucka and Robertson are a great combo.

Alias 22
Crossovers 5
Spyboy 13.2: M.A.N.G.A. Affair 2


Three great titles that you're probably not reading. Read them.

Aria: Uses of Enchantment 3
Mythstalkers 3
Noble Causes: Extended Family One-Shot
Powers 32


Powers has the best damned lettercol in the industry. Bendis, as I may have stated a few times, is god.

PvP 2
Strangers in Paradise Vol. III 59
Soulsearchers 60
Nodwick 21
Snapdragons 4
Thieves & Kings 42
Queen & Country 16


With art by Carla Speed McNeil. :-)

Scooter Girl 1

A new Chyna book!

Sidekicks Super Summer Fun Special

Am I the only one who wants a Sidekicks/PS232 crossover special?

Amelia Rules 11


The best book being published. Read it. For the love of whatever god you believe in, buy this book! It's all ages, even.

Captain Marvel Set (#9 & 10)

BTW, Marville has been cancelled. Guess We Decided.

Exiles Set (#26 & 27)
Ultimate Spider-Man Set (#40 & 41)
Wolverine / Doop Set (#1 & 2)

New Mutants ?1? again??

Thanks for the list and the Westfield rec.

I used to read around 40 titles when I collected. If I dip back in I will be sure to sample your list.

If I manage to bang out my novelization perhaps I will send it your direction just for grins.

*nod* It's by a pretty good writer/artist team, and Marvel's been relaunching just about every failed title (Thunderbolts, with no connection to the original, Namor, X-Force, X-Factor, etc).

I'd love to see it!
