X-O Manowar TP Vol 09 Dead Hand      
      


Also ordering from InstockTrades:
Archer and Armstrong TPB (2012- Valiant) 7

And now for my confusion.

I switched to TPB for Fade Out.  Issue number 9 is coming out Wednesday but so is TPB Vol 2.
So the TPB says it collects issues #6 - 10.  How can that be if #9 just came out today?
And since I already own #6-8 should I just go ahead and buy issues 9 & 10 and start my trade buying on Vol 3?

What to do....what to do.......

Ah ha!  Must have been a misprint.  Just checked Image's website and they say Vol 2 collects 6-8.  So I'm good to wait for Vol 3.

It's 3:30 AM (Est) and Comixology still has not put up the new releases. I thought they opened them up at Midnight, but I have never tried before so now I know.
 Cheesy

But, I will be eventually getting, through them, Image or borrow from Dave (though that list from him seems to be getting smaller as I either buy them anyway or just tell him not to bother as I just don't have the time to read all this stuff)

Bizarro #4
Constantine #4
Martian Manhunter #4
Robin ... Son of Batman #4

AOA #4
Agent Carter One-Shot #1
Captain America White #1 (and #0?)
Gaurdians of Knowhere #4
House of M #3
Infinity Gaunlet #4
Miracleman #2 (Gaiman)
Secret Was Journal #5
Spider-Island #4
Spider-Verse #4
Star Wars #9
Lando #4

Beauty #2
Fade Out #9
Invincible #123
Secret I.D. #7
Southern Cross #5 - trying again for an issue or two
Bloodshot: Reborn #6
Ivar, Timewalker #9 (at least I hear it is coming out today)
Rai #10
Star Trek #49 (Hey, Cow  Wink) To prep for issue #50's Mirrored Universe (because, ya know, it hasn't been beaten to death)

Thinking about adding -
2099AD - as I miss anthologies (also thinking Dark Horse presents as well, but 2000AD is weekly)
Heavy Metal - for the same anthology reason, but this month they also have a Kirby story?
Suicide Squad - Just because ... I have no damn clue why. Margot Robbie? Maybe?  Undecided
Paybacks #1 - About a team of repo guys that collect debt from super-powered people. Ha. THIS cover is hilarious.

Thinking on whether or not to continue with -
Wonder Woman #44
Green Lantern: Lost Army #4 (was 12 issues and now only 6. Ugh. Stories ending is gonna blow now. Also included in that "the ending is gonna suck, so I may jump off now" category - Lobo and Omega Men. Justice League United just sucked anyway, regardless of how that ending has changed. DC did us all a favor by killing that drek)

Stopped buying a couple Secret Wars sub-titles as they just suck .... *ahem* ... are just not for me. Most of the mutant related stuff is either just okay or pretty weak, except for House of M, as well as some other non-mutant stuff like 2099 which is horrendous. Another case this week - Armor Wars just did nothing. AoA could've been on that list had I caught it in time. It isn't horrible, just ... eh. But now I want to see where it goes  Cheesy

Who is this? This use to be Rodney, but he must have accidently found a way to defy the pull of gravity and fell off the face of the Earth.

(Hope all is well, buddy)

EDIT - also, for my comics, I added that new Remender book Tokyo Ghost #1 (had not intended to but saw first three pages and it changed my mind  Undecided) and Black Canary #4 as Pia Guerra is guest artist and I just could not resist that.

That is all the comics I added, so no need to read further ... you can stop now ...


I also snatched up Black Canary 1-3 as I didn't want the chance of being lost when I read issue #4 ... that I only got because of the art

 Grin

Only thing I think I am really killing is my wallet. With Marvel "Revamp" getting ready to hit, I already know my funds will be going out in droves, yet I keep buying stuff now. I need to rethink my buying habits. Soon.

Not only am I spending too much, I am getting further behind on the comics I know I like. But yet I'm spending more and more on comics I want to try or give a chance to... or the back issues of titles I missed the first time. I start reading those and get further behind on my normal stuff. I must be up to 25 or so Image titles now, a couple Oni, Boom and Avatar, plus a good amount of Dark Horse. Don't get me wrong, I have found some great, really great titles doing this, but I am getting further and further away from the titles I have invested so much time in already. Or the titles that I really want to stay updated on. Stuff like my Valiant titles and the DC mainstays and Marvel Secret Wars keep taking the back seat as I discover new titles. Making it impossible to read ALL the titles.
 Angry

I have to stop this. am such a sad person.
 Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy

I have to remember another good part about digital, it will always be there. I don't have to worry about grabbing the titles when they first come out like I use to do to ensure I had a first print to maintain resell value. I can buy what I want whenever I want. It doesn't need to be the week it comes out. I think that is my biggest hurdle or change I need to work on.

Black Canary is a great example. I didn't need to get these now, this second, to make sure I got that Pia issue, it will be there whenever I am ready to read it ... and the issues prior  Cheesy ... but I still have that "grab it now, quick!" mentality.
 Undecided

I think this next month will start the process of me calming the hell down.
