[Rob Staeger (Grodd Mod)]

Yeah, they're not incredibly reliable. I miss stopping by Hanley's on my lunch hour, two blocks away from my office in NYC. Sometimes I even miss being employed...

[Martin Gray]

Oh, bad luck Rob - drives me mad, that sort of thing.

[Rob Staeger (Grodd Mod)]

Grr... just went to my LCS, and the owner hadn't made it in with their new comics yet. At least I was able to pick up last week's Detective Comics, which was fantastic. The rest will have to wait until I have another hour to burn.

Not a bad week, I just hope that the snow doesn't delay our comics, which always hit the UK on a Thursday - it's so nice when I can be a few hours ahead of my American chums!

I'm very much looking forward to JSA All-Stars, which began a two parter last time with style (mind, it was the $3.99 30pp price and the book had already shrunk by 10pp - moaning again!). It was a focus on Cyclone, with a parallel plot showing the other JSA-ers in space. I especially enjoyed the art by Howard Porter and Art Thibert, as Freddie Williams II's (not Jr? mind, I never get why people bother with Jrs and IIIs anyway) art has never clicked with me since he began using digital tools. Especially his covers, which to my eyes lack powerful central images.

[Mark Sullivan (Vertiginous Mod)]

VERTIGO RESURRECTED WINTERS EDGE #1 (MR) - Very possibly. These seem to be stories of the 'brand' characters that have started coming back to the DCU. 'Previously uncollected' it says, so there may be Constantine/Endless stories that would complete my collections.

Definitely worth looking at. There are quite a few very good to excellent stories in those Winter's Edge anthologies that have never been reprinted.

[Rob Staeger (Grodd Mod)]

Mart mentioned he was annoyed at the short Batwoman story, too. Hmm.. I'll have to think about that.

As for Secret Six and Action, they haven't appeared so far (that I'm aware of; I haven't actually read the current issue yet). But this week's issue featured Vandal Savage, and it almost certainly will lead into next issue's crossover with his daughter's group.

[Figserello]

Comics only arrive in comic shops in Australia on the Thursday anyway, so I won't get mine until Friday this week. As I stay at home minding the baby on Thursday and get my comics on Friday anyway, it doesn't make any difference to me.
