Psycho Andy’s Comic Watch: 14 Sept 2011

Week two of my overview of comics from this week that interest me the most!

JUL110018 BTVS SEASON 9 FREEFALL #1 CHEN VAR CVR $2.99
JUL110017 BTVS SEASON 9 FREEFALL #1 MORRIS CVR $2.99

Buffy the Vampire Slayer returns for Season 9, fresh off the heels of Joss Whedon saying that he may have gone a bit overboard with Season 8. With the new status quo having been set up in ANGEL & FAITH #1 a couple of weeks back, how will Buffy and the Scooby Gang deal with whatever’s to come?

JUL110213 BATWOMAN #1 $2.99

J.H. Williams may be the most talented artist in modern comics, if his run on DETECTIVE COMICS from 2009-2010 is any indication. Even with the change in writers, BATWOMAN will probably be the prettiest book that comes out this week.

JUL110218 GREEN LANTERN #1 $2.99

The New 52 continues, and the current Green Lantern is… Sinestro? WTF?!

JUL110232 GRIFTER #1 $2.99

Mostly of note because Grifter was part of the Wildstorm Universe, which has apparently been absorbed into the DCU proper, thanks to the events of Flashpoint. Could a full-on WildC.A.T.S relaunch be far behind? Yeah, probably very far behind.

MAY110532 SUPER DINOSAUR #4 $2.99

Super Dinosaur is awesome.

JUL110570 FEAR ITSELF #6 (OF 7) FEAR $3.99

The penultimate chapter of Marvel’s Miniseries-turned-Summer-Event, FEAR ITSELF, which has mostly been received with a resounding “meh.” Also available today are the 4th printings of FI #2 and 3rd printing of FI #3.

JUL110745 INFINITY GAUNTLET TP NEW PTG $24.99

One of my favorite 90s Marvel stories is available once again! But, if you get the chance, find one of the older printings, which all have MUCH cooler covers.

JUL110744 THANOS IMPERATIVE TP $19.99

And while you’re picking up Thanos’ biggest story in INFINITY GAUNTLET, why not pick up his LATEST story, in THANOS IMPERATIVE?

JUL110605 ULTIMATE COMICS SPIDER-MAN #1 $3.99

Miles Morales is the NEW Ultimate Spider-Man! After months of buildup, this finally comes out. Will people still care?

MAY111190 CLINT #10 (MR) $6.99

You may not be the biggest fan of Mark Millar, but anthology titles really need a bigger audience. Soon enough, there’s going to be something awesome in CLINT (other than what’s already there), and everybody’s gonna feel like a jerk for missing it.
