Still unsure about continuing Domino Lady, and I’m not real happy about Herc going up to $3.99.  Queen Sonja was so-so, and I’m giving it another issue or two before I decide to cut it or not.  Otherwise, pretty standard stuff for me.

I’m giving Tony Daniel one arc to sell me or not.  The first part was okay, but the first issue of Cowl wasn’t terrible, either, and we know how that turned out.

I’m still undecided on Moon Knight.  It does some things rather well, but I’m not sure they’re doing enough to make me care about Spector and his new motivation.

Part of me wants to move Deadpool to the Culling List, too, and if it turns out Van Lente is writing Deadpool Team-Up permanently, that may just happen.

LOBO! LOBO! LOBO! LOBO! (Can you tell I get a tad excited when any new Lobo book comes out?)

I’ve been avoiding any of the Deadpool spin-off books, but this one guest-stars Hercules and is written by Fred Van Lente, who is doing great work on that book, so at least worth the look-see.  No promises on any future issues, though, unless Van Lente is going to be writing them. If that’s the case, I may drop the main series and start picking this one up.

Apparently, Grell’s story was only a two-parter, so we’ll see if he’s back for Warlord next month or if whoever wrote the first unimpressive arc is.  If it ain’t Grell, I’m not interested.

Vampi’s still only $2. I’m worried the story ends stupidly, and they didn’t think they could sell the next series if this one cost too much.

Well, I guess I didn’t miss the last issue of Ambush Bug after all.  Turns out it was just disgustingly late.  I hope it was worth the wait.

Well, I’d been enjoying Batman up until now, but Tony Daniel is taking over, and if Battle for the Cowl was any indication of the quality we can expect, I’m not sure how much longer I’ll be getting this.

Red Sonja becomes Queen Sonja.  Last time they changed directions, I wasn’t that pleased, so I guess we’ll see how this goes.

1. Beasts of Burden #2
2. Dominic Fortune #3 (of 4)
3. Cowboy Ninja Viking #1
4. Sugarshock (one-shot)

Slow week again.  According to my retailer, however, next week looks to be a huge one, so I’ll take it.

The last two looked interesting.  CNV for the title, and Sugarshock because it’s Joss Whedon who can write well when it’s not X-Men.

Nothing really of note this week.  Not sure if the entire Vampirella series is going to be $1.99 or not, but it’s a nice break from the $3–5 price tags on everything else.

1. Batman and Robin #5
2. Captain America Theater of War: Ghosts of My Country #1 (one-shot)
3. Criminal: The Sinners #1 (of ??)

Yeah, I said I was dumping Warlord last month, but this is all Mike Grell, so it might be better than the first arc.  Worth risking the $3 on one issue, at least.

Moon Knight #1 had some good and bad, so I’m giving it a second look.  If this issue doesn’t really grab me, though, I’m probably not going to buy any more.

Couldn’t find the length of the new Criminal story anywhere in the book itself, so dunno how many issues that’s going to be.  Glad to see it back, though.

Starr, as a concept, is interesting. Not sure how “good” it is, but it’s different enough to check out, plus you’ve got some nice Richard Corben artwork to look at.

Pretty standard week, and nothing unexpected.  I’m still undecided on whether to continue getting New Mutants or not (I decided to leave X-Force on the shelf this week), but that is a nice-looking cover, if nothing else.

1. Conan the Cimmerian #14
2. The Incredible Hercules #135

4. Wolverine: Old Man Logan Giant-Size #1 (one-shot)

§ — Denotes my last issue of this misbegotten series.

Because it was an otherwise short week, I picked up Moon Knight, which has gotten mixed reviews, but at least looks pretty, plus the Madame Xanadu: Disenchanted TPB.

Nothing else really to add.
