I checked and I am 6 weeks behind in my comic reading! J-j-jeepers! I'm going tomorrow morning and it's going to be killer on my wallet and takes weeks to get through.
One thing I'm concerned about: I know Bendis' Scarlett sold out everywhere. I checked the CBS nearby me to see if they had a copy and they didn't. I wonder if I missed the boat? Damn me for not reserving a copy.

I bought Scarlet but haven't gotten to it yet. The reviews have been all over the place in terms of its quality. All the way from terrible to a home run. A lot of the controversy centers on how it apparently breaks the fourth wall and how it's executed. I guess I'll know when I read it.

I picked up the comics on Friday morning and got 6 weeks worth. Oh Boy. It's a lot of comics...will take me a long time to get through. Began with 3 issues of Walking Dead, then some Avengers comics and now issues #2 and #3 of the Legion.
I've been busy--feel like I haven't been on LW much! Over the next few weeks I'll review every comic known to man.

This week's haul; Legion of Super-Heroes 3 X-Factor 207
I was this close to taking X-Factor off of my already anemic pull-list (having already yanked Guardians of the Galaxy and now Agents of Atlas, with some agonizing, as those titles have begun to fall down), but this issue stuck a hook in my cheek and dragged me back in.
Peter David sucks at super-heroes stories, I've decided. His strength is in characterization and drama. As long as the book is dealing with the various personalities and their issues, it sings. When he attempts an action sequence or actual super-hero storyline, wow, does he disappoint with the limp non-resolutions...
Awesome exchange of the day;
"What you obviously want is an open relationship!"
"No I don't!"
"You want to sleep with whomever you want."
"Oh. Well, then, yes, I guess I do..."

Maybe some other stuff like Wonder Woman and Time Lincoln (I'll check 'em out in the store) and the Eaglemoss Dr. Fate (if my shop gets it in).

Though I think it is likely she'll be relaunched in the DCU proper.
I hope so. CJ broke the news to me today about this. It's a damn shame if the series is truly gone. It's been the surprise delight of the last 2 years.
