Nice! JL #12 any good?

It was wayyy better than I expected, I thought there was going to be a whole cheesy buildup to Superman and Wonder Woman finally getting together but I was not disappointed

BW: Minutemen #3 is

Minutemen and Ozymandias have to be my favorite series out of all of 'em, the story and artwork just pop out at me.

Still bummed I couldn't get my hands on Deadpool Kills the Marvel Universe #4, all my shops are sold out till 2nd print.
and I missed out on Hit-Girl #2-3 but I'm still on the hunt for them.

 

[donmega]

Small collection, slowly growing.
Missing my Superman: Earth One since I let my co-worker borrow it.
Missing ALL Sin City books, I still have A Dame To Kill For but the rest got lost in the move 2 years ago.
Missing my original pressing of the Watchmen graphic novel after my cousin grabbed it and never returned it.

How was GL #0? Thinking of picking it up, the new GL's story sounds pretty interesting.

My pick ups this week.  Sorry for the blurry pic.

Man I was eyeballing the **** out of the Hawkeye books but ultimately passed on them.
As for GL #0 from the bits I've read (It's not actually mine, it was an order for a co-worker that I picked up, I have another copy of Batman Detective Comics #0 for him as well) it's actually pretty good, I didn't finish reading it since I wanted to read Silk Spectre #3 first.
But I haven't gotten around to reading any of them since I just came to the house and dropped them off and then ran some errands and went to the gym.

I'll have proper reviews in about an hour or so by request.

 

[Master Zik]

Is that Cannonball on the 1st cover?

Yes and the dude on fire is Sunspot.

Only messed with the Detective Comics #0 from DC

ASM
Venom
The Punisher
Thunderbolts: Dark Avengers
Defenders
Avengers Academy
