Like Jeff, I am delaying some reads in order to catch up on others, but I am going to keep them on this list so I don't forget them
;D  ;D
I also don't like change, usually, so the new layout from "ComixNow" (where I get my DC release info) is screwing with me. It isn't hard or difficult, and actually makes more sense, but it's just different. Gonna take me some time to get used to it.

*************************************

F.F - I read this as I heard two of my three podcasts talk highly of the issue and I am always down to return to read some good First Family stories. But for me, while I understand why people liked this, as did I, it wasn't the punch I had hoped for. But hey, that is okay, I am glad to have read it and found it a fun little story. Not like I had anything else to read anyway...
;D

Supergirl 18 - I had to f/u to the possible return of Supergirl-Matrix

hoopla

Beneath the Trees ...Halloween Special - I dug it! A little something to tide me over until volume 3 starts!

Assorted Crisis Events Vol 2 (Collects issues 6-9) - Issues 8 & 9 wrapped this up nicely. Issue 9 was especially depressing but in a good way!

Conan the Barbarian Vol 7 (Collects issues 25-28) - Dangit! I already read this in single issues. A wasted checkout!

Sojourn #14 & 15 - Good start to this new arc of winged people and an Egyptian like city.

X-MEN #34 - Nice solo book on Juggernaut and why he's with the XxMen.

X-MEN: OUTBACK #2 (OF 5) - This was fun. A new Reaver with a horrific past thanks to Wolverine.

X-MEN OF APOCALYPSE OMEGA #1 - Wow. Wasn't expecting that ending. And didn't realize it could impact a future X-comic coming soon!

THE DEMON #1 - an interesting first issue and while I'm not sure this type of story is something I would want to read long-term. I definitely enjoyed this enough to keep reading on through the first arc. And who knows I may stay on for longer..

Legion of Super-Heroes #2 - really good second issue. Perry had a good idea of thinking of this as an absolute Legion, and that has made it all the more enjoyable to read.

*************************************

Black Star - I've been wanting to try this, for awhile now. And now I have done. Art just wasn't for me  :-\

Redcoat - Continuing the emotional journey... such good stuff  :'(

Terminal - I think they finally beat me down with this title's constant "Look! It's 90's comics all over again" approach. It was fun and first...  ::)

Hammerfist - I don't know how I feel about this. It is so much a knock-off... or an homage... of another property that it hits me with... I don't know. Not Remender's best work, but I am still lovin' the art, so I am still here to see where it goes.

Doom Patrol - Wild stuff, as always with this team, but I am glad to be here for it. Some of the panels looks like Riley Rossmo, so that was cool  8)

Legion - Much better issue, compared to the first, which I did like, but this one hit home for me much more. No idea where we are going, but I am putting me seat-belt on, and excited for this ride

—————————————————————————————

JONAH HEX AND THE SHADOW OF DEATH #1 (OF 6) Decent first issue.

Doom Patrol #2 - I'm loving this book. It's very reminiscent of the TV show in tone and feel. Big thumbs up.

Nice House by the Sea #12 - End of Act Two. Interesting wrap up and sets the stage for what I imagine will be the final Act. Finished a lot stronger than parts of the journey and I am interested in how this will all end.

The Batman of Two Worlds #1 - An ok one shot.  Really just an intro to the two different Batman universes.  Not a must read if you're already into either of these.

Hyde Street Vol 2 (Collects issues 8-12) - I'm such an idiot. I've already read all these in single issues! But I re-read it anyway. It's been so long I needed the reminder and it was just as good reading them the second time!
