Weekly Previews for January 11, 2012

This is my huge week (in number of comics), and one day (probably just before it's not my huge week anymore, as these things go) I'll switch to getting my comics on the second week of the month instead of the first. Then maybe I'll be up-to-date with all of the books coming out. But, for now, I'll just mention the slew of regulars that're released this week and comment only on the ones about which I have something to say.

(Also, I missed last week's Previews, but there was really very little to speak of. Only three books I was looking at, only one was iffy, and I was very tired. So, no Previews. Last week, that is. This week, plenty.)

Weekly Previews for December 14, 2011

Christmas preparations have put me a bit behind this week. It also doesn't help that the second week of the month is my largest in terms of pull-list books. With a trio of Bat-books, a couple of Dark books, and the newest issue of The Unwritten, DC's taking the lion's share this week. Buffy, Jim Henson, and a coloring book (!) round of the rest of the PrePostviews this week, so read on and check it out.

Weekly Previews for November 9, 2011

We didn't get to make our monthly trip to the comic shop last week, and there are no non-pull list books this week, so it's a pretty boring day for the Previews. We've got a bunch of #3s I have yet to see the #2s of, and the start of the new parallel stories (kinda) in The Unwritten. (They're releasing the regular issue and a “point five” issue a couple weeks later that are stand-alone and give some insights into the history of the cabal.) So, being that I can't say anything about them, here's a completely comment-less installment of the Previews!

Weekly Previews for October 12, 2011

Illness and outside obligations have made this week's Previews so late as to be almost useless. But, not entirely (as far as I'm concerned, anyway), so here they are. Just pretend it's Tuesday.

Weekly Previews for September 7, 2011

It's the first full week of DC's new 52, but that only accounts for 40% of this huge week in the Previews. I'm certain I won't be able to get all these books, but I'll need to look 'em over first, won't I? Anyway, I'm short on time and there're a million of these things, so Previews this week come in faux haiku. Enjoy.

Weekly Previews for June 15, 2011

Life has gotten in the way of the promptness of this week's Previews, but better late than never. It's a pretty small week for me (or this would be even later), but I'm pretty excited about these books. Read on to see what they are.

Weekly Previews for May 11, 2011

I'm a bit late this week, so I'll be brief. It's a good week for comics. Let's not overlook all the great books that aren't Flashpoint this week.

Weekly Previews for January 12, 2011

Another Tuesday, another set of Previews! This is one of the weeks that make me wish I could make it to the shop more often, as three of my favorite comics (all DC) come out this week. What are they? What else looks good this week? Read on to find out.

Weekly Previews for November 10, 2010

This week brings us three books that make me wish I could go to the comic shop more than once a month: Red Robin, Ultimate Comics: Thor, and The Unwritten. Also, we've got the end of Return of Bruce Wayne and a fistful of worthy and potentially worthy books. Read on and see for yourself.

Single-Issue Reviews, October 2010, Part One

Short-but-sweet reviews! On tap: some Bat-related books, the Choose-Your-Own-Adventure Unwritten, and X-Factor in Vegas. Read on to see what's what.

Weekly Previews for October 13, 2010

Computer issues coupled with the late release of the new release list from my local comic shop means this week's Previews comes a bit later than usual. But, fear not, it is here, and it's a big week. It's the start of the return of Bruce Wayne this week, with four of this month's eight Bruce Wayne — The Road Home one-shots as well as the penultimate issue of Batman: The Return of Bruce Wayne. And that's not all. We've also got the start of a few miniseries of interest, the super-awesome second G-Man collection, and new newest issue of the always-excellent The Unwritten. Read on and take a look.

Cover Love: Batgirl by Stanley "Artgerm" Lau

This is the start of a new periodic (read: when I feel like it) feature — Cover Love! I'll be showcasing some covers that have really struck me for some reason or another. With this week bringing the end of Stanley "Artgerm" Lau's run on the Batgirl covers (it seems), I thought it would be a good time to give them some love. At left is my absolute favorite, #12. Read on to see all of them.
