If so, you're equally as sad as me... but I did enjoy the main comic a lot too, so it's not like I was buying a piece of crap just to see a one page comic strip that I'd already read. Oh, and you're not missing out on much by not getting Thundercats - the 'preview' issue (#0) was fun, and suprisingly 'cringe-free' (as there was nothing particularly embarrassing about it... other than it being a Thundercats comic, of course), but #1 was... well, very 'meh' as you put it. They changed the art-work as well, which is stupid, as the stuff they did for #0 was faaaantastic.
And it sucks when your local store doesn't get in the one you want, or doesn't get enough of 'em - my nearest one's pretty tiny, and even though I have any issues I want reserved, there's rarely enough to satisfy everyone - need to go into town tomorrow to find a copy of the latest Daredevil.
And not only will the terrorists win if you don't buy EVERY SINGLE COMIC written by Kevin, the moon will fall and Farmer McFurroughby's crops will fail.
: : ...I'll be offering hand-jobs for the next hour. Because I'm nice like that.
: : And you, you sexy Australian geek-a-nerd, what comics did you get? Me, I FINALLY found a copy of 'The Hulk: The End', which was excellent, as well as picking up Thundercats #1, Soldier X #2 and Spidey/Black Cat #2. All were pretty darn good, but I was particularly impressed by Spidey/Black Cat - definitely improved on the first one (which wasn't terrible, but certainly a wee underwhelming), and I'm curious to see where Kevin's going with it.
: it didnt do anything for me, no fires in the loins at all, which is good because that would hurt. I got this week *ahem*
: A selection of Hitman back issues
: The Pro
: Powers #22 with the Monkey Man page in it from Moviepoopshoot.com
: Spaceman
: Supes: Man of Steel #129
: Supergirl #73 (they have had such a good team on this for so long)
: Spidey: Blue #4
: Spidey/Blackcat #2, because if i didnt buy it the terrorists would win apparently.
: Batman: Gotham Knights
: Ultimate X-Men #21
: BUT WHAT I REALLY NEED IS....
: A copy of Ultimate Spiderman #24, there were none delivered to my local store. And i dont do reprints, i have all first printings over here.
