I posted what I'd be getting way below, but now that I have the actual
Previews issue before me, I can be more certain, and have already written up
my order, in fact. I hate how there are only 16 blanks on the "short order
form." I inevitably break up a few of the lines to make two spaces instead
of one, especially near the bottom of the form. Anyway, here's what I'm
ordering:
SUPERMAN #143 (penciled by Steve Epting)
I was going to put Superman & Batman: Generations #4 on the order form, but
I'm trusting that the shop will order it anyway, since I ordered #1-3
previously. I can always add it to my pull list next time.
CONJURORS #1, $2.95 (art by Ed Barreto)
LEGENDS OF THE DC UNIVERSE #15
And adding that series to my regular pull list, in the process. (If I put
"ATP" in the QTY box, the shop adds it to my pull list.) I didn't put it on
pull before because I wasn't sure how long I wanted to keep getting it, but
this Barry Allen arc lasts until issue #17, which will come out in April, so
that's a-ways away, so I might as well put it on pull so I don't have to
especially order it each time.
JONAH HEX: SHADOWS WEST #3, $2.95
HUMAN TORCH COMICS, $3.99
I thought about ordering Wild Animals #1 (A LIST, page 164 of PREVIEWS),
which reprints an old funny animal comic, but I ran out of space on the
order form. Ah well, maybe it's for the best...
ACG (page 167-168 of PREVIEWS):
ADVENTURES OF ROBIN HOOD #1
STEVE CANYON #19 (page 194 of Previews)
PERIPHERY #2 (page 208 of Previews)
MEASLES #2 (page 218 of Previews)
ACES HIGH #1 (page 224)
THE WEDDING OF POPEYE AND OLIVE #1 (page 248)
CAPTAIN GRAVITY #3 (page 252)
Julies Journey/Gravity #5 was supposed to come in today, but it didn't which
is why I'm not ordering #6 of that series (also page 252) -- don't want to
get stuck with #6 if #5 isn't to my liking. (I've never seen a copy of it
before.)
THREE GEEKS #9, $2.50 (page 260)
COMIC BOOK MARKETPLACE SPECIAL EDITION (page 266)
COMIC BOOK PROFILES #6 (page 268)
JACK KIRBY COLLECTOR #23 (page 268)
Thought about ordering Fandom's Finest Comics Volume 2 and Golden Age of
Comic Fandom (both listed on page 279 of Previews) but I ran out of space on
the order form....! They also have Complete Jack Kirby Vol. 3 listed on
that page, but I can't remember if I've ordered that or not....and I can
always get it another time.
SUPERMAN: MAN OF TOMORROW #13 (penciled by Paul Ryan)
ADVENTURES OF SUPERMAN #566 (penciled by Tom Grummett)
Getting these because of who did the art. Skipping Action Comics because
I'm not an Immonen fan.
Getting it because I like Barreto's art.
Presumably this is the same reprint of Human Torch #5 that was solicited
before, although shortened in page count and price apparently.
ATTACK OF THE MUTANT MONSTERS
FULL FORCE #1
TALES OF BLUE & GREY #1
(Old Charlton reprints. These were the first ones that I wrote down on the
order form.)
(144 Pages, reprinting a year's worth of strips from 1953-54, for only 5
bucks. Hard to pass that up!)
(48 pages for $2.95, another good bargain!)
(All ages anthology. #1 was supposed to come out today, but must be late
since it wasn't at my local shop.)
IMPACT #1 (page 226)
(Reprints of 1955 EC comics, in color, for only $2.50. These comics haven't
been reprinted in comicbook format in 40 years! Highly recommended.)
(Full color 32-page Popeye The Sailor comic written by Peter David, with a
cover drawn by Tom Grummett, for only $2.75!)
(Full color 32-page comic that takes place during the 1940s, for only $2.75.
I've ordered #1 & 2, too, but they haven't come in yet.)
(A funny comic!)
This reprints the best material from CBM's earlier issues, being 120 pages
for $9.95. I'm ordering Cover A (choice of 3 different covers).
Magazine that focuses on one creator per issue. This issue, #6, focuses on
Gene Colan, and will be $2.99 for 56 pages. #5 should be coming out soon,
and focuses on John Byrne.
(68 page magazine for $5.95. Somehow my local shop forgot to order the
recent issue of this for me...grrrrr)
