[MIGHT GET]
HULK #38 & 39: I won't lie, while I love Jeff Parker part of the reason I liked reading this book was for the Hardman art and if that's gone...it may see a drop.
THE MIGHTY THOR #5: I'm still on the edge of this book, the 2nd issue is going to see if it wins me over or not.
THE PUNISHER #1 & 2: I love Greg Rucka, so may give him a shot. Never been a huge Punisher fan though.
ULTIMATE COMICS HAWKEYE #1: I was hoping it was an ongoing rather than a mini but I love Hawkeye & Hickman. Plus I want to give this new Ultimate Universe a shot.
VENGEANCE #2: Depends if I pick up the first issue or not.
X-MEN: SCHISM #3: X-Men event, how can I deny it? Then again...money...

Getting
-Avengers #16
-New Avengers #15: Oooh, a Squirrel Girl issue!
-Heroes for Hire #10
-Thunderbolts #161 & #162
-Ultimate Fallout #4-6: Since it looks like the relaunch stuff is following this, decided to get it.
-Ultimate Comics Hawkeye #1
-Ultimate Comics Ultimates #1
-Captain America and Bucky #621
-Captain America #2
-Daredevil #2
-X-Factor #223 & #224
-Deadpool #41 & #42: It's been a while since I really enjoyed this title. It's kind of teetering on being dropped.

May Get/Not Getting But Worth Note
-Sweet Crap, Man. Could you have not waited until the 18 different "Fear Itself" things ended before you start the 18 different "Spider-Island" things?
-Punisher #1: I'm on the fence here. I'll read it, no question. But I've pretty much only read Punisher in trades, so not sure if I'll stick to that formula or not. The fact that it comes out twice this month makes that decision harder.
-X-Statix Omnibus HC: So, so tempting. It's a run that I've always wanted to read, but at that price? Ouch.
-Thunderbolts by Warren Ellis & Mike Deodato Jr. Ultimate Collection TPB: Of course this comes out just after I started reading the single issues. Sure, I'll probably be spending less the way I'm doing it now, but it'd still be nice to have it all in one book.
-Green Goblin: A Lighter Shade of Green TPB: I remember really enjoying this run when it came out. Makes me want to go and dig out those old issues.

Marvel Adventures Super Heroes #17

Comics I might buy

None.

I'll be getting...everything.

You see, my work for Marvel Comics has increased, and now as part of my work for them, they are sending me every Marvel Comic that comes out each month. So yeah, it's now kinda hard for me to contribute to this thread, as I'm no longer picking out titles I'll be setting aside to buy. I guess I can make mention of the titles that I'll most be looking forward to reading!

So...Most Interested In:

Alpha Flight #3: Due to the creative team of Pak and Van Lente
Daredevil #2
Fear Itself #5 (and all tie-ins): I'm now completely on board for this mini-series, as I had to miss "Chaos War" and "Shadowland"!
Incredible Hulks #634 & 635: I'm back on board just in time for Greg Pak to leave the book!
Moon Knight #4
Punisher #1 & 2: Hope this is better than the last few years of mainstream Marvel Punisher stuff. And where's Punisher MAX this month?

Oh yeah, and my writing for the Marvel Index is continuing:

Wolverine, Punisher, Ghost Rider: Official Index to the Marvel Universe #1: The start of a new volume is here!

My reading interests may change, or increase, after I start going through all of these titles that I'm now getting to try out (it's not all fun and games, there's a workload that I'm doing for Marvel). I plan on trying to read a new comic each day, and sharing my reviews on them.

So....friggin'....jealous.....

I read a lot of comics. Like, a lot. But I think even I'd be pressed to find the time to read that many comics a month. But, man. I'd sure like to try. I guess the benefit of reading everything is that you can find those great hidden gems that no one reads.

Well, I thankfully am not required to read ALL of them (but I may try)! Instead, I'm assigned a hefty work load among the comics, and the rest are a bonus. I'll probably go crazy from all the comics lying around eventually, but I'll enjoy the work until then!
