Huh…another small week? I can live with that. Since I am getting this post up later than usual tonight let’s just cut right to the chase, shall we? Here’s my list:

Amazing Spider-Man #620 (Dan Slott, Marcos Martin, Mysterio)
Batman and Robin #8
Daytripper #3
Marvel Boy: The Uranian #2 (Jeff Parker, Agents of Atlas)
REBELS #13
The Unwritten #10

If any of you want to pick up a trade that has my Seal of Approval why don’t you do yourselves a favor and buy the Ultimate Newtwave Collection. It’s both of the old trades bound into one super trade. Plus it’s Warren Ellis, Stuart Immonen and Devil Dinosaur! Ya, it’s Marvel but it’s actually worth the price they are asking for it (Unbelievable, I know). And for all of you S.W.O.R.D. fans out there: sorry your awesome book is getting canceled. Welcome to my world.

So, please tell me what you are buying this week or else this post would be all for naught.

Jose posted this on my Facebook page today:

“If you’re looking for someone to blame for the turd-like sales of Ash Saves Obama you only need to look in the mirror good sir. You’ll be lucky if Dynamite releases an ashcan of the collection let alone a trade paperback.”

Wonder what brought THAT on?  Was it because of the things I said during our reviews of ‘The Siege #2″ and “Ultimate X #1” this past weekend?

I guess you’ll have to tune in and see.

MUPPET KING ARTHUR #1
Writen by Paul Benjamin and Patrick Storck
Drawn by Dave Alvarez
SC, 24 pgs, FC, (1 of 4), SRP: $2.99
COVER A: David Peterson
COVER B: Dave Alvarez
Release Date: February 10th, 2010

Many have sought the Holy Grail, and many have failed. Now the Muppets present some very good reasons why, as they recount the fantastic quest of King Arthur and his Muppets of the Round Table! This classic tale of adventure, romance, and magic is told once again, but this time with more frogs, chickens, bears, and Whatnots than you can shake Excalibur at! In the words of Fozzie, it will be a ‘knight’ to remember!
