Wolverine Deep Cut 1 - This takes place back in the days when the X-Men were in Australia.  One of my favorite eras. And a good start for this story as well with a big battle with Sabertooth. I like where it's going.

Geiger 5 - Great ending to this arc.  These villains just don't learn.

Geiger 6 - Excellent one shot story.  Love that dog!

Once Upon a Time at the End of the World 11 & 12 - Man this got dark! I don't think I'm gonna like how this series ends. It's not looking good for our couple.

Mystic (2000) 1 - I think I read part of this in a preview issue? But I liked it then and I like it now!

Mystic (2000) 2 - I think I'm in for a bit.  Interesting mystery and characters as the origin continues.

Mystic (2000) 3 - Good issue as well. Plus I like the art in this series.

Green Lantern 15 - Absolute Power tie-in and the last of it thankfully.  Was good to see the results of the Alan Scott side arc which will likely come up in the final Absolute Power issue.

The Legion of Super-Heroes (1980) 267 - Elementary wrap up to this two parter with guests Bouncing Boy and Duo Damsel. And lame villain Kantuu the djinn.  Although the use of

in his origin was a nice touch.

Absolute Batman #1... free copy with basic cover from my LCS
Hawk & Dove Annual #1 (1989)... gotta love Titans West
Jonny Quest #3
Space Ghost #6
X-Force #4... Still my favorite of the newer X-titles

My buddy at the shop was telling me that last week's All In was a complete sell out and he's expecting a second printing.

[Gay Titan]

Apparently, so did the Absolute Batman.

That bodes well for it then!

Adding this trade since I finished early.

Exile to Babylon TPB - It was ok.  I expect more out of Lapham but my main issue was with the artist.  I had a hard time telling the main characters apart.
