Every week, one item or another in my pull and hold stands out for me above the rest in one way or another. Sometimes it’s a periodical, sometimes a graphic novel, sometimes a collection. Does that happen to you? If so, let’s hear about it here. It can be an item you’ve long anticipated or something you bought on a whim. If it’s something you were really looking forward to but ended up being a big disappointment, let’s hear about that here, too. I’ve been meaning to start this topic for a long time now, but chose today to post about something I’ve been waiting for a long time, long before it was even solicited.
SILVER SURFER EPIC COLLECTION BY STEVE ENGLEHART AND MARSHAL ROGERS
This is a favorite run of mine, but I’ve read it only twice: once as it was released, and I re-read it once after that. It came out as an “ESSENTIAL” a few years ago, but for this I held out for color.
EDIT: Most weeks I make my picks before I have read them, but feel free to choose either the books you anticipate most before you read or enjoy the most after you have read them.

I'll agree with Cap's "Advance Pick of the Week" for a second week running...
I'm looking forward to this one. There's bound to be a lot of stories from great artists that I've never seen.
It'll be interesting to see what the second volumes of these anthology titles look like -- whether they carry on immediately from what's presented in the first book, or whether they bounce around it time like other DC Finest books do.
I fully expect Second Knight to be every bit as good as the first.
I said I wouldn't do this, but sometimes I just can't help but to post two "Picks of the Week" (besides, I picked Second Knight before reading any, and I have now read Good as Dead #1).
I reccommend this one to Mark Sullivan.
Right now, before I have read anything, I'm going with...
After I read them, I may be back with another. This is a small week (just four comics for me), but a significant one (four potential "Picks of the Week").
