CAnnot go to the con due to reasons out of my control, so I went on a catch up as much as possible spree:
Justice League:Generation Lost #22 (I still need the last two issues, but my regular shop missed this one, so I got it to catch up.)
GL Corps #58 (Long story, but I still need the rest of this crossover, my shop just didn't have this issue, so I grabbed it when I hit the other store...then to get the rest of the crossover.)
Zatanna 11
Adventure Comics #526
LSH #12
The Flash #11 and 12
Flashpoint #1
The Walking Dead #84
Moon Knight #1
Darkwing Duck # Annual 1, 9 and 10
i Zombie #11, 12 and 5 (missed this one somehow, so grabbed it...now I can catch up in my reading finally.)
American Vampire #13, 14 and 9 (another missed issue that I needed to catch up on.
Active LMB character is still Beast Boy.

Not much. Stopped by a third backup shop to grab a couple things m other shops are out of, and an impulse buy to boot:
Atom finale special that wrapped up the Adventure arc.
another i Zombie issue my regular shop had missed. Now I can read the series.
Alpha Flight 0.1 - which is by far the dumbest numbering giimick of all time.
Active LMB character is still Beast Boy.

Picked up:
BATMAN AND ROBIN #23
HELLBLAZER #279
LEGION OF SUPER HEROES #13
POWER GIRL #24
TINY TITANS #40
All of them were decent to good, no stinkers for sure. Power Girl and Hellblazer probably edged out the others.

There's a new Ka-Zar? I missed that. Is it any good, Lard Lad?

This article picqued my interest, Jer. Check it out and see what you think. I can say, having flipped thru it, that the pencils and color are absolutely GORGEOUS on this thing! (The article has sample pages.) I'm a fan of the character, though I've read very little of the actual work on him. One thing I'm happy about is that they're actually having Ka-Zar IN the Savage Land instead of constantly taking him out of his wheelhouse as they did in the (though admittedly excellent) Waid/Andy Kubert series about a decade ago. Interestingly, the artist on this is Pascal Alixe who spelled Coipel every few issues on the original Legion Lost series. His pencils are MUCH improved over his Coipel-aping style he used there. This is one of those inkerless books scanned from the pencils. Sometimes, this approach doesn't work, but the current Ka-Zar mini looks like one of the successes. The colors are absolutely BEAUTIFUL! Hope all this helps! 
Still "Lardy" to my friends!

That art is unbelievable. I may just have to check this one out. I also like Ka-Zar, so I'd be in for a mini.

Thanks for the link. It looks interesting. I'll check to see if my shop still has any next time I make it in.

Just the two Legion books. I asked the store dude about The Intrepid Escape Goat (which I gave a shout-out to elsewhere in Dr. Gym'll's), but contrary to what the company's web page says, it's actually not available yet.
Hey, Kids! My "Cranky and Kitschy" collage art is now viewable on DeviantArt! Drop by and tell me that I sent you. *updated often!*

Way behind...but grabbed the following on a trip to an alternate shop this week (this should blow Cobies mind!):
Captain America #1 (Like what I have read of Bru's run on this title - trades from the library and such - so I decided to give the new series a try. Figured the wife might like it as well.)
Daredevil #1 (Good reviews and liking Waid helped this one jump into my hands.)
Alpha Flight #2 (Hoping this stays a solid read through the rest of the series)
Retroactive '70's The Flash (C'mon...a few more comics until I give up on Barry because he no longer is the character he is now.)
Flash: the Fastest Man Alive #1 (Old issue that I never got when I had no money whatsoever for comics. Need to fill in this series, and this was only a buck.)
