It wasn't on Comiclist for this week, nor was it at my store.
Does anybody mind if I pass out?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I decided to test run some of those recs. I bought a TPB of Fables, as well as #8 (it was there for list, and earlier than the TPB, so I did).
And I've electronically ganked Ex Machina 1-5, and am also getting Y.
Just read Machina #1 (I keep wanting to call it X Machina -- too much Marvel), and I do have to say -- totally didn't see the last page coming, and damn, nice job.
What's the defining characteristic of the Wildstorm imprint?

Art Crawl!!!
When I looked at the New Comics Release List it said that Astounishing #7 had been moved from this week to December 22.
Damn, I forgot about Manhunter!
I picked up Batman, Batgirl, Flash and Green Lantern.
I'm finding Green Lantern rather confusing -- possibly because I don't know the backstory well enough.
And in the Flash, Wally's reaction to Linda somehow seemed sinister. Did anyone else think that?
I loved Bats and Batgirl. I agree that whoever the writer was did an amazing job with an issue that was primarily exposition.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I bought a TPB of Fables, as well as #8 (it was there for list, and earlier than the TPB, so I did).
Which trade?

Yeah. My pusher recommended it to me, saying it was the kind of cliffhanger you totally should not be allowed to have earned in your very first issue, but it still works.
What's the defining characteristic of the Wildstorm imprint?
I was wondering that myself, as I realized Ex Machina was Wildstorm, not Vertigo.

Which trade?
Love Stories, I think? The one that starts off with Jack and the sack and the Grim Reaper.

Ah, Storybook Love. That's the only one I have, I think.
#8 probably falls somewhere during Animal Farm.

That sounds as good a description as any. Quite confusing -- revolution, guns, talking pigs.

My initial estimation of Brian K Vaughn -- good writer, really likes the word "retard."
Thanks for the recs. I'm really enjoying those I've tried so far.

Sweet! I'm glad.
I've read the first two issues of Murderer?, the first of which I'd already read, being the Ten-Cent Adventure I got for Free Comic Book Day.
Greg Rucka is really good.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
P-C, I just re-read Murderer the other day in my quest to figure out What Makes Tim Tick.
