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 September 14, 2011

So, it's still Wednesday, right? So the Previews aren't that late, right? Huh? Oh well. There are a lot of books to go through right now, so let's just get started.

DC's relaunched Batman comics

I don't normally make news posts as this blog is about how comics affect me personally, but sometimes those two coincide. As you probably know by now, DC announced on Tuesday that they will renumber and revamp their superhero comics this September. They've trickled news about what the 52 #1s will be, starting with the announcements on Thursday of the (more or less) Justice League-related books and on Friday of the Green Lantern books. Little of this deeply affects me.

Today's announcements (of Batman #1, Detective Comics #1, Batman and Robin #1 and Batman: The Dark Knight #1), however, do affect me. I'm a big fan of Batman and his “family”, so I've been eager to see their plans.

Weekly Previews for November 24, 2010

Computer problems bring this week's Previews to you a little late, but there's some really good books here, including the #0 issue of the new Batwoman series and the start of Scott Snyder's run on Detective Comics. Read on for that and more.

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.
