So I finally got some more of the new DC.
Batwoman #1
OMAC #1
Uncanny X-Force #15
Daken Dark Wolverine #14 ... a total dud.
Scalped #52
Unwritten #29
X-Men Legacy #255
Alpha Flight # 4
Fear Itself #6
A few that didn't make the cut :
New Avengers ... dropped ... same story different month
Journey into Mystery ... dropped ... I think my friend the young Loki is no longer featured in this book. A story about Mephisto didn't hook me.
Legion Lost didn't entice me. And I'll wait for the Swamp Thing TPB. From what I flipped through it looked like that format might be better for it's story than a monthly comic.
My store is still out of a lot of DC comics.

I only got stuff I was really excited to get this week. I feel like I've been getting a bunch of so so stuff out of loyalty or to find out what happens.
I mulled over LSH#1, Avengers #17, the latest Fables, and Nightwing.
I ended up getting :
Captain Atom #1
X-Men Schism #4 of 5.
Uncanny X-Men #543
Hellblazer #283.
Avengers the Children's Crusade #7 of 9.

Birds of Prey, Supergirl, and Legion of Super-Heroes were my picks of this week's 52. BoP out of obligation, the other two out of interest.
Besides that, Tiny Titans, Darkwing Duck, Generation Hope, and Fables.

No money, but we traded a bunch opf books in at the local B&N and I was able to grab the following for what would have been about 6 bucks cash total:
The Spirit Book One by Darwyn Cooke. (cannot wait to read this, but the couple times I have cracked it open so far, I have just flipped through it admiring the artwork.
SHAZAM@! The Monster Society of Evil Hardcover. Have read this and really like it, so for the price (free really with the trade in stuff) I could not pass it up.
Active LMB character is still Beast Boy.

not much again, I guess I am cutting back on stuff that doesn't satisfy:
IZombi #19 (haven't read it yet)
Avengers Origins: Luke Cage 1 shot
(really didn't like it, didn't even finish it, was bummed because i like the previous Avengers Origins one shots so much)
Avengers #19 (was ok, I'm just a fan of Acuna)
New Mutants #34 (This was the first comic I read and most fun so far)

Batwoman #4 - well done but I hated it.
Uncanny X-Force #18 -
Magneto: Not a Hero 2 of 4 - ok a bit strange
