Whoops, I didn't see that Spidey/FF on there! Definitely picking that up too...which means I will not, in fact, succumb to the temptation of picking up the Essential Silver Surfer on the excuse of a "light week".

These should be waiting for me today at the LCS(According to Diamond):
Amazing Spider-Girl #8 - Fun book, I guess I'm going to have to read the previous series after all.
Blade #9 - Guggenheim & Chaykin, I'm enjoying this book.
Green Lantern Corps #12 - I like this book.
Mystery in Space #8 - Final issue, it's been fun.
Red Sonja: Vacant Shell One Shot - I'll give this a look.
Star Wars: Dark Times #3 - This book is late, I don't know why. I'll have to re-read the first two issues.
Star Wars: Legacy #11 - Another "Guilty Pleasure" read for me. I'm enjoying the storyline they've set up.
Tales of the Unexpected #8 - Was in today, I must have missed it on the Diamond Releases. Last issue as well.

And now, the moment you've not been waiting for!
Countdown #51 - Hmmm, more death, gloom and doom, just what I wanted in comics. I'll give it another couple of issues, but I'm not sold on the long haul just yet.
Y The Last Man #56 - Cool. That's all I can say.
Amazing Spider-Girl #8 - Issue read like a wrapup story, as if the book were ending. I know that's not the case, but it was quite a jumping off point for wavering readers.
Spider-Man and the FF #2 - My favorite book this week. Shows you don't have to write the characters...well, out of character to tell a good story. Also reminds me how much I miss Spidey.

Gamekeeper 2: brilliant old school action as our lead takes down a group of heavily armed commandoes...reminiscent of the LOSERS..Diggle just clicks on titles like this...10/10
Iron Fist: great fight issue with an even better cliffhagner (that will lead to more action)..Bru and Fraction have really given iron Fist tons of depth and backstory in 5 issues..and AJa gets better every issue..9/10
Thunderbolts 114: what I love about this title is I dont know who root for..Ellis really makes the T-bolts despicable and im actually cheering the second strigners fighting against them..compelling stuff...9/10
New Avengers 30: we get the reveal of who Ronin is..and its pretty cool...this title is on a roll and Bendis makes me care for this crew of underdogs (best line" are you the new Defenders?")...8/10
Y 56: consistently brilliant..what a cliffhagner..one of the best yet..wow i want to read the next issue NOW...some great emotional moments too..i feel sad that the end is near..10/10
Countdown 51: snore..not compelling at all..just a boring continuity love fest...count me out...4/10

Only 3 issues left of Y right? It's hard to believe it's coming to an end.

My LCS came thru!!! If only they can get me that #2...
The problem seems to be with their distributor.

I only pick up Y the Last Man in trades, but what a ride that book has been. I will be very sorry to see the series end. This rule of not allowing a book to eclipse the Sandman run is absurd

Re: Y:TLM
I hope we see 355 again. I love this character (one of my favs in all comics) and her relationship with Y is so deep and complex. This can't be the last time we see her.  This issue was excellent and heart-breaking. What the heck is Alter's angle? I still think this is all going to end badly for Yorick.
Sigh.

If you've got #1 and #3 and no #2, send me a PM. I'll hook you up.

Yeah, upon a reread I think I'm out for Countdown. I don't feel compelled to keep going at all. Plus, this will let me save more money for Essentials and DC Showcases.

Blast! Our orders didn't go down much from 2 to 3, so it should be just about everywhere that had #2.
