Blood Song A Silent Ballad GN Dark Horse Edition-- I've got the original version of this book and all I can say is that everyone needs to check out Eric Drooker. I've got three of his books (Blood, Flood and an illustrated collection of Allen Ginsberg poetry) and they're just stunning.
Green Lantern Agent Orange HC (Blackest Night Prelude)-- The road to Blackest Night continues. More Phillip Tan artwork. More Geoff Johns world building. I hope after Blackest Night we can just get some Green Lantern stories that aren't part of a larger narrative. Green Lantern has a limited shelf life on my shopping list. Once Blackest Night is done, I may just end up thinking that Johns' story is done and drop the book.
Spider-Man: Died in Your Arms Tonight HC-- Speaking of books that I'm dropping... The bloom is off of the Spider-Man books. There are more titles and the art has just gotten more generic. It was artists like Salvador Larocca, Javier Pulido, Mike McKone and even John Romita Jr. who invigorated Spidey post OMD. Now I have no idea who the guy is who drew the American Son arc and I don't really care. After this volume, I'll have 11 nice Spider-Man books up on my bookshelf and I'll be happy with the variety of stories and art in them.
Luna Park HC-- Since Desolation Jones is awol, this may be a great chance to catch up on Daniel Zezelj artwork. That reminds me that I have to pick up the last volume of Azzarello's Loveless sometime, which I think also has some Zezelj artwork. Honestly though, I think I may be crime-comiced out this year. Don't know if I can handle another one.
Grimjack Manx Cat #4
Starstruck Vol 2 #3-- Weren't these comics supposed to be out last week?
Beast GN-- Marian Churchill's art was an odd beast on Elephantmen. She's got a softer, more restrained Paul Pope thing going on.
Phonogram 2 Singles Club #5-- Here's probably the book I'm looking forward to the most this week because it's going to take me somewhere I really want to go. I may not understand all of the musical references but I don't care. I really liked the first Phonogram mini about magic but Singles Club is magic. Never mind. I just read on Bleeding Cool that this issue had to be pulped because of a bad barcode and now will be out next week. That just sucks!
