I might have bought 52 WEEK #2 $2.50 - if they hadn't solicited #15 as another death in the DCU yesterday.

AQUAMAN SWORD OF ATLANTIS #42 $2.99
SUPERMAN/BATMAN #25 (RES) $2.99 - is this book finally actually shipping?

Big deal. Everyone knew that additional characters were dieing off in 52. You're picking it up still. Don't try to fool us...

Really looking forward to Shadowpact.

Any Blue Devil is good Blue Devil. Wish they'd left him all buff though. Was a cool look for him in DoV.

Considering that...
I haven't bought #1 yet
I felt Infinite Crisis was like watching a train wreck. Every page was another chance a character would be detroyed.
OMAC coninued the carnage that Countdown started.
Rann/Thanagar was a waste of paper.
Didn't care enough to read VU or DoV
I hated Identity Crisis. Mind wiping was a staple of keeping identies secret. We all read it. Everyone accepted it. No one cared.
I hated Graduation Day, the story that 'got the whole ball rolling.'

I'm afraid I've about had it.
Heroes dying, suicide, rape, its like watching Law & Order or CSI except I know all the victims.

Let me know when the dark days are over. Until then, the only book I promise to check out is the new JLA this summer.

"I hated Identity Crisis. Mind wiping was a staple of keeping identies secret. We all read it. Everyone accepted it. No one cared." - I should clarify this. What I meant was that we all read stories with mind wiping in it during the 70s and 80s. We accepted that mind wiping was part of the job. Superman did it. Batman did it. We the readers didn't care.

WOLVERINE CLASSIC VOL 3 TP $14.99
X-MEN FIRESTAR DIGEST TP $7.99

That's it for me. And that is assuming the wolvie TPB is from the original series and that the Firestar is the collection of her first mini-series from back in the 1980's.

Hmmmm... I got nothin'

11) ULTIMATE WOLVERINE VS. HULK # 3
The Story: The preliminaries are out of the way, and now it’s time for the battle of the century between one hirsute X-Man and one Jade Giant. It ain’t gonna end pretty.

Anyone else notice that these had write-ups, but weren't in the Diamond Shipping list ... ?
