So...
I'm late with this but I planned to pick up:
"Strange Tales" #1 (which I actually bought)
"Luke Cage Noir" #2 (which I actually bought)
and
"Sweet Tooth" #1 (which I narrowly passed on)
Then I thought "I'm only buying two comics? Why not finally give a try to the Judd Winick/Mark Bagley Batman Reborn stuff Clare has spoken highly of!". So I bought "Batman" #690.
Tomorrow: A review of "Luke Cage Noir" #2! A MARVEL BOOK!
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
By the by, if you care, "Rex Mundi" #19 did not come out that week (8/19/09). It came out the next week. Mysteriously, the two long-awaited "Gargoyles" trade-paperbacks (Clan-Building Vol. 2 & "Bad Guys") DID come out on the 19th. Now for complicated and obnoxious reasons I will explain in my review, these trades have previously un-published material in them. A lot of it. Hence, a review for the "Gargoyles" trades is appropriate and a review of "Rex Mundi" would be superfluous. But as they are trades and have the equivalent of six or so weeks of comics in them, it will take me a while to absorb them to my satisfaction! Don't worry. Wait for it.

Second Week- Jon's Pull List for 8/19/09
From my regular pull-list:
"the Amazing Spider-Man" #603
Mary Jane kicking the Chameleon's ass again? Sounds good to me.
NOTE: I think I am going to be doing the reviewing for this title since Josh is not. But to do so I need to catch up! Hopefully, this week it will happen.
"Dark Reign: Mister Negative" #3 of 3
I enjoyed the first two issues of this mini-series. What can I say? Spider-Man getting mentally warped into an evil mother-fucker and getting involved in Chinatown violence. Great idea, right? Let's see if Fred Van Lente can carry this out on a high note!
Feelin' curious about:
"Ex Machina" #44
Although I haven't been following this title closely since the beginning of the arc involving the Pope (which must have been about a year ago) I am very interested to see if there are some answers to be found about the origins of New York City Mayor Mitchell Hundred's super-powers. They are among the most interesting elements of this series.
I'm also going to take a ridiculous chance. I'm going to see what sense I can make of the final issue of "Rex Mundi".
I am going to buy and review "Rex Mundi" #19 after only having read issue #1. I LIVE TO SERVE YOU. Wish me luck.
...and that's it? The rest of the bunch doesn't seem to interest me too much. We'll see if something jumps out at me on the stands or if one of the others convinces me otherwise!
