My fantabulous first real Pull List!!!
Ok, I am stopping my nomadic ways for a while. I am going to try and start walking regularly to Meltdown. on Comic release day so I finally sat down with Tom and worked out a pull list for them. I get 10% off all items on the list and they hold copies for me evey week. There is alimit of 15 books so I had to be selective. I can still get other books, but these will be at a discount.
1. 52 (For a weekly book this has been extremely consistant)
2. JUSTICE SOCIETY OF AMERICA (this is getting astoundingly good lately)
3. RUNAWAYS (on the edge of my seat after last issue)
4. ALL STAR SUPERMAN (This has been head and shoulders above everything else in both writing and art)
5. SUPERGIRL AND THE LEGION OF THE SUPER-HEROES (This is intricately crafted with incredible character chemistry. I am addicted!)
6. X-FACTOR (Solid writing and of course Quicksilver)
7. BIRDS OF PREY (Gail Simone is a very talenented writer. Oracle is one of my all time Faves and now Big Barda!)
8. ASTONISHING X-MEN (Joss Whedon and John Cassiday! Great character insights and top notch art.)
9. CHECKMATE (Super powered espionage! Black Ops! Amanda Waller. This is definitely not a kid's book. It continues to surprise me.)
10. MANHUNTER (The grass roots campaign to keep this book alive has been out of control so I am back to reading it. So far I am loving it.)
11. SUPERMAN CONFIDENTIAL (This has been a great study on what makes superman a complex character... trust me Singer has no clue how to deal with this character )
12. ACTION COMICS (Wow 4 super titles on this list... How did this happen? The super family used to be so boring. This book is being written by Richard Donner right now and you get a feeling it is his response to how Singer messed up)
13. NEWUNIVERSAL (I don't have much experience with the New Universe outside of the Exiles arc but it has been intriguing so far)
14. INCREDIBLE HULK (Tom's Addition. Very much The incredible Conan since the Planet Hulk started. Interesting, but very macho)
15. New X-Men (Tom's Addition. I hav't been into it lately but it is amusing and there are some interesting subplots.)
