Definitely looking forward to Ultimate X-Men after the annual. More Civil War is alwars good. Also, New X-Men is gonna be great. It's one of my favorite books. Annihilation means more Nova. :)

I like that Annihilation is coming out. I just hope it's better than last issue. And there's an Exiles issue! That'll make my week.

Getting CW stuff, plus the 3rd printings, Claws #2, Ultimate X-Men #74, and JLA Classified #27. Also, I'll be getting the New Avengers vol 4 HC premiere as well as the Street Fighter Ultimate Edition trade (which I hope my local comic shop ordered for me).

BTW, wasn't Ultimates 2 #12 supposed to be shipping this week? I don't see it on for next week, does anyone know when it's been delayed to now?

My god. Ultimates 2 should really just finish with the next issue. With all of the delays, there is NO reason for a thirteenth issue. Speaking of delays... what happened to Planetary???

Lessee here...Annihilation #2, Civil War Files #1 (as long as it looks like a worthwhile pickup), maybe New X-Men #30 (but I'd like to start at the beginning of an arc), DMZ #11 (I think it's a new arc, I'd like to get trades for the first issues), and I saw a preview for this new Image comic called Sam Noir: Samuari Detective that I really liked the look of that I'll look for.

It seems like its been 3 months since the last Ultimates 2.

At this rate, Ultimates 2 will be Marvel's All-Star Batman & Robin. Millar? Miller? Hmm...

Looks like Exiles #86 got pushed back to next week.

Looks like Exiles has been pure shit for a very long time and I don't care about it. It's sad though, I used to LOVE that book.

I just realized that Martian Manhunter 2 is out this week. The first issue was fantastic and I'm looking forward to more alien angst.

Was that comment really necessary?

I was a little disappointed by Annihilation. The turn of the events at the end was unexpected, but they go very far with it. We've got, I think, four issue left. And I'm fairly confident the Annihilation Wave will end up losing or at least being confined. Before that, there's that glaring grammatical oddity when Thanos is speaking and the oddities within the characters (both Thanos and Terrax seem strange).
