Jumped the gun on Jeff!  Cool

DC
Aquaman 33
Aquaman & the Others 4
Green Arrow 33
The Flash 33
Action Comics 33
Superman 33
Wonder Woman 33
Superman Unchained 8
Supergirl 33
Sinestro 4
Justice League Vol. 5 HC
Any Future's End issues? This I don't know about.

Dropped Superman/Wonder Woman, picking up Superman with Johns & Romita on case-by-case basis. I am NOT into 'Doomed' right now at all, so I'm skipping tie-ins, annuals, specials, etc. 'Unchained' is still being picked up so I can sell the full lot; can't say if I wish to buy the trade, if I"m being honest.

Marvel
Spider-man 2099 1
Captain America 22
Moon Knight 5
Amazing Spider-man 4

and why can't I find solicits for Hulk this month?

All my Marvel books are through DCBS, as the discount for trades there is rather nice, I will admit!

Last person to do that ... well, let's just say he hasn't been seen around these parts in years

Any Future's End issues? This I don't know about.

I see DC is also soliciting about 21 "Futures End" number 1 issues for Sept release. I guess to get a better jump on the 3d cover demand this time?

...and why can't I find solicits for Hulk this month?

Skip month it appears as I don't see it either. Just the Savage and the She

Welcome to the club.  Smiley Just can't beat those prices man.

For me, kinda broke-down at the last second last month and added that damn Invaders back on. I keep listening to Robinson and what he has plans for and he keeps pulling me back in. And of course, because of that, Invaders is a double ship title this month.
 Angry Cheesy

DC
BATMAN

Marvel
AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #4
SPIDER-MAN 2099 #1 (just can't see me not getting this, if nothing else to include in the Amazing lot when I sell)
ALL NEW INVADERS #7
ALL NEW INVADERS #8
FANTASTIC FOUR #7
THOR GOD OF THUNDER #24 (Maybe my last issue ... if I can pull it)

Image
Saga Vol 2
and perhaps another $5 or $6 dollar trade like DEADLY CLASS Vol 1 by Remender or ZERO Vol 1 by Ales Kot ... something along those lines

I dropped Deadly Class after issue 2.  I didn't enjoy it.

Will all of those be 3D?  If so, I wonder if DCBS will offer a bundle?

I'm not. Comics are one of the cuts I'm making to move out of our apartment and into a house by the time we have our baby.  Cry

Ouch!  But I certainly understand.  I've had to do similar in the past for things.

I believe so. But I could be thinking of something else. I know DC is bringing a bunch of 3D covers in and I'm pretty sure it was these.

EDIT - More info HERE

So ... I have no idea.  Grin I am avoiding them anyway. May get the Batman one, but I doubt it.

If so, I wonder if DCBS will offer a bundle?

Oh, on that I am sure. (probably)

Attention all DCBS buyers, there is a special link at the top of the main DCBS page that takes you to a microsite, so you can order those 3D Futures End issues. As DC is making them a preorder item two months ahead of the usual two months ahead  Wink, DCBS is making a "future" ordering page.

So, in other words, if you want any of those special "Futures End #1" issues ... 3D OR just regular covers, you need to click on the link and order there.

Thanks Perry!  Good to know.

You bet.
It is (or at least was) pretty easy to miss, so I wanted to make sure everyone was aware. Not a fan of how they are doing that. And sorry Jeff, I didn't see a bundle option, but as I was on there as they were updating the site, they may have added it by now ... or they will later maybe (I would e-mail them if you really want them all)

Also Jeff, I see you're adding Batman and Robin, don't forget there is a Robin special this month also.

(EDIT - Ooops, my bad. I now see you have that Omega issue on your list already. Nevermind  Grin)

And as for my order, yep, I just placed it and everything I listed above is what I stuck with. Thanks to Jeff, I decided to wait on Deadly Class until I get some more info on it, so I only grabbed SAGA vol 2 to go with my other comics for this month.

Would have been my lowest order total in a long time if it wasn't for the double shipping on Invaders and that 2099 issue that I couldn't resist adding (even though I knew ahead of time I wouldn't try to resist it at all Grin). I was able to resist the lure of the Batman 3D issue, so I am improving my resolve ... ever so slightly.
 Cheesy
(Even though I really wanted to go back and order all those Amazing Spider-Man "point" one issues as that issue #3 being solicited this month looks awesome. Very Ditko'ish that villain.)

Are you going to get the Marvel ones once they start producing them? As Disney has now declared only the "G" items will be canon ("G"eorge Lucas direct involvement items = Movies and Clone Wars).

Though I will always consider the works of Kevin J. Anderson and Timothy Zahn as canon in my mind. Regardless if they are now considered Star Wars "Legends" or not  Tongue
 Grin
But honestly have to say, I am kinda looking forward to a Star Wars "reboot". There is just soooo much stuff out there now, and half ... if not more ... of it is total junk. The few years before Lucas sold out (ya know, before Episode 1  Angry) it seems he was just signing off on anything. Really muddled the "Lucas system".

"The Lucas system?"
"Lucas is not a system, he's a man. George Lucas. He's a card player, gambler, scum ... you'd like him"
"Nice"

 Cheesy

flash Gordon 4

Saw a preview of issue one ... somewhere ... and this look good. May have to trade this puppy.

And speaking of which (old characters and all), have you tried any of those CAPTAIN MIDNIGHT issues? I have been curious about that damn title for over 6 months now, but as I am trying to stop the monthly buying and my boy Dave doesn't get it, I have not had a chance to read anymore than a couple preview pages. Which look really good and interesting. Have you tried it?

There was also another question I wanted to ask you, but it has just slipped my mind, so I may ask it later  Cheesy
