DC COMICS

MANHUNTER #31 $2.99 - Depends on what Gaydos' art looks like.

MARVEL COMICS

AVENGERS INVADERS #2 (OF 12) $2.99 - Liked the first issue, hopefully now that the setup's out of the way it'll get even better.
CRIMINAL 2 #3 (MR) $3.50 - Feels like a while since we had one of these.
INVINCIBLE IRON MAN #2 $2.99 - Interested to see what comes next.
SECRET INVASION #3 (OF 8) SI $3.99 - First issue was strong, second less-so; this is going to be about more than a bunch of people running around the Savage Land, so that's a good start.
YOUNG X-MEN #3 DWS $2.99 - Still undecided about this title.

 

[CaptainCanada]

THOR SEARCH FOR ODIN (PP #816) $3.99 - wtf, where did this come from?

It's a reprint collection of issues 7 and 8.

Decent week, albeit still waiting for the shoe to drop on SI. NOVA and P:WJ seem to be coming out at a steady clip.

Sales gumshoes should note that KICK-ASS only sells 20k worse than Millar & Hitch on a mainstream Marvel title, FANTASTIC FOUR. That's a bit underwhelming for the Four.

ASTONISHING X-MEN SKETCHBOOK $2.99 - (Really? Can't we just have this title be finished by now??!!?? This just shows Marvel's greed.)
AVENGERS INVADERS #2 (OF 12) $2.99 - (Enjoyable first issue; but, it doesn't seem that impressive when compared to The Twelve, which is very similiar in concept, but much better done.)
CABLE #4 DWS $2.99
CRIMINAL 2 #3 (MR) $3.50
DARK TOWER LONG ROAD HOME #4 (OF 5) $3.99 - (This sequel is sooo much better than the first installment. The first Dark Tower series covered so much material and left so much out. Focusing this book on a smaller event really captures King's story so much better.)
ESSENTIAL CAPTAIN MARVEL TP VOL 01 $16.99 - (LOOONG overdue release. Now, if only they'd put out an Essential Sub-Mariner and Essential Sgt. Fury and His Howling Commandos.)
HAUNT OF HORROR LOVECRAFT #1 (OF 3) (MR) $3.99 - (After the dreadful Edgar Allen Poe Haunt Of Horror, this title being released is a complete mystery. I hold out no hope for it.)
INVINCIBLE IRON MAN #2 $2.99
KICK ASS #3 (MR) $2.99 - (So far, with issues #1 and 2, this title has totally lived up to it's hype. Possibly my favorite book out right now.)
LORDS OF AVALON SOD #5 (OF 6) $2.99 - (This has been a fun read. It reads very smoothly, and isn't bogged down in a lot of narrative, like the other Marvel/Dabel books have been.)
MARVEL ADVENTURES SPIDER-MAN #40 $2.99
MARVEL SPOTLIGHT SECRET INVASION $2.99
NOVA #14 $2.99
OMEGA UNKNOWN #9 (OF 10) $2.99 - (I'm finally reading issue #6, and must say, what a total disappointment this title is.)

[TheCorpulent1]

Is Cable any better now? I read the first issue and it was just awful. The solicitation of Cyclops on the August issue's cover and Fraction and Brubaker's praise for Swierczynski makes me wonder if I should give Cable another shot, though.

Also, you know that Thor: Search for Odin comic is just a reprint of Thor #7 and 8, right, clonesy?
