Its amazing how it only takes 3 HC's to make me go over what I'd like to spend.

Wait to see where the discounts are and then another round of spring cleaning in my house possibly.

Next month will be barren for me--a perfect opportunity to pick up an omnibus that I missed the first time around (X-Men vol. 2 comes to mind).

Go to Thwipster right now. They're having a 50% off Marvel Omnibus sale. See if its already there.

Very cool site! Fortunately (or unfortunately?) I already own all the ones they have on sale (at least, of the ones I want)!

LOL I tried. Make you sign up for their E-Mailings. New discounts every day. They just haven't done anything yet I haven't already gotten (or prepaid) my hands on.

DCBS has its spreadsheet up. They continue with the across-the-board discounts on Marvel and DC trades, which is very nice. We also get to pick our FCBD books this month (is it that time already?). This one naturally caught my eye:

VALIANT PREVIEW
(W/A) TBD
(CA) Jelena Kevic-Djurdjevic
The Valiant Universe returns! X-O Manowar! Bloodshot! Harbinger! Some of the best-selling heroes of all time are back in a groundbreaking new beginning helmed by an all-star roster of comic book superstars and visionaries. Journey through the heart of the Valiant Universe with brand new stories, character redesigns, and an exclusive first look into Valiant's bold first year. This free preview - featuring content you won't find anywhere else - hits the stands just as Valiant's best-selling titles return to stores worldwide.

Pages: 32, FC
FREE!


The Valiant relaunch has been a long time coming so I'll believe it when I see it. I'm also leery of whether it will be any good. I'd certainly like to see who is involved in this "all-star roster" of talent they claim will be involved. Everything the new Valiant has done makes me think they have their eyes on movie rights more than comics, though, so I'm definitely going to try to maintain a healthy dose of skepticism. Not to mention Jim Shooter's failure to relaunch the Gold Key (and former Valiant) characters at Dark Horse, which can't bode well for the success of this endeavor. But still, I'm pretty excited to see if they can pull this off.

Here is my tentative pick for my five FCBD comics:

FCBD 2012 MOUSE GUARD LABYRINTH & MORE HC (Net)--Hardcover free comic? Awesome!
FCBD 2012 MARBLE SEASON (Net)--Semi-autobiographical comic by Gil Hernandez? I would pay for this.
FCBD 2012 WALT DISNEYS DONALD DUCK FAMILY COMICS (Net)--I might already have these so this one might get sacrificed, possibly for the 2000AD comics (love me some Judge Dredd)
FCBD 2012 ATOMIC ROBO & FRIENDS (Net)
FCBD 2012 VALIANT PREVIEW (Net)--'nuff said!

Still have to theorize my list over which ones I probably won't find at the other LCS's on FCBD.

Though I'm sure Bluewater's, Oni's Bad Medicine, and Atomic Robo are definitely 3 of the choices.
