March 2, the on set of the One Year Later titles from DC. Luckily the only affected titles appear to be that of the DCU. Imprints and else are otherwise fine and unaffected.
Now, despite have no recollection whatsoever of the previous comics on the stack,
Ex Machina #18 should be a good hit. Lines are super fine and articulate, expressive of the nuances in the script and all that blahooey. Expected to be another good read sight unseen.

Luck will no doubt cast a black sky over Thursday 23. Not that comics will have anything to do with it. Aside from basking in the sun that is midday, it will most surely be when the next interview happens. Clashing decision makers the lot of them. Only because The Studio at the Opera House makes for a night time distraction. Any other week, no deviation could bother.
So apparently
Astonishing X-Men #13 begins the Whedon and Cassaday run again. After the corn hole stretching twelve issue run previous, a little wary sitting back down again to this. Most likely going to see this one through given that it was all too much on the rotational for the first two arcs. Despite their girth.
Ultimate Spider-Man #90 takes a slot in the box. Have not been too rapt with this series since a while back. Been hoping for some light. If that only comes in the form of #100, then that may be too late.
Now,
Kabuki #6, that's where this money's at. It's art, story, and a damn mental massage from a naked woman slathered all over in the slipperiest of oils.

February 16, enough time for those with flowers to clear out of the room. Not enough time for those diving into buckets of chocolate and ice cream to leave the doors behind. To each their smelly own.
From the list of comics out this week,
emo boy #5 appears to be the only one close to a buy. It's like it's the comic that keeps on depressing. And for those with no intention of looking for superhero action, comfort in it's musings.

Back to school all this week of February 2. That just means less space in the peak rides to work on the trains. Of those that need to ride the trains in the morning. Or in the afternoon. Not every has that burden upon them.
Speaking of,
Exterminators #2 is perhaps an intriguing comic. Not quite sure. #1 is sitting under 30 others and with no look in for a look in any time real soon.
Same deal with
Futurama Comics #23. Except in this case, the issues are pretty much stand alone with no need to follow up from the previos. Clean comics that. There is just something missing from the printed versions of Futurama. Can't quite pin it. And it's not the animation.

Doors to the Comic Shop will most certainly be closed for January 26. Public Holiday and all.
Others refer to it as Australia Day. Most of Australia does in fact. In any event, there's the hope that the shipment will hit the doors late on the Wednesday afternoon. If not, the Friday inbetween an otherwise perfectly good chance of a four day weekend.
Ultimate Spider-Man #89, the only thing from this week that will be sitting there for a pick up on Saturday.

Looking down at January 19, it's pretty clear that if a certain article is supposed to hit an editor for it's time and relevancy, it should have been gone a few days before. No matter, these things always fail. And then there are comics to read in the wallow.
Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man #4 is on the final lap for
The Other a Spider-Man event others have chosen to either ignore totally or pick up every chapter of. Did anyone else just pick up the parts for one title and see how that was running?
Just read a satisfying end to #14, but
Ex Machina #17, no idea what this issue is about. Picking it up because the past has yet to disappoint.
