Rich\'s Pull list - 23rd December 2009
Clearly still trying to adapt to the new schedule, hence the almost complete lack of posts. I think at this point I'll aim for normality (or as close as we get round these parts) in the new year. In the meantime, it's a relatively sedate week at the ...
Rich\'s Pull List - 16 December 2009
I'll see if I can manage more than one post this week. No promises. A big week, too...Batman: Streets of Gotham #7 -Passable but not great - and sadly I'm not picking it up just for the Manhunter backup. Dropped.Green Lantern Corps #43 - Red Lantern ...
Rich\'s Pull List - 9 December 2009
Still a little bit sleep deprived (but for the best of reasons) so don't expect too many regular updates this week - but the pull list tomorrow looks like this...Action Comics #884 - More interested in the backup than the main feature now that Captai...

Could be worse, could be his daughter.
I'm enjoying the new Batgirl book waaay too much.So, yeah, busy in work - doubt you'll get much more than this today. ...
Rich\'s Pull List - 25th November 2009
Assuming I don't get a sprog dropped on me this week, here's what I'll be getting (although having a root canal on Wednesday may mean I don't make it to the comic store, sadly...) - it's a pretty big week but at least there are some last issues in th...
I have a bad feeling about this...
I'm doing one of those things that I do.You know, the ones where I put together random pieces of information and postulate on what they mean.And, more often than not, I'm completely, utterly wrong. In this case, I certainly hope I'm wrong.Anyway, Dan...
Rich\'s Pull List - 18 November 2009
It's a big week this week - and unfortunately, not too much to drop...Adventure Comics #4 - Superboy Prime takes center stage as Blackest Night hits the book. Hope that this serves as his curtain callFlash: Rebirth #5 (of 6) - Cue joke about slow plo...
Rich\'s Pull List - 11th November 2009
After last week's respite this could be another big week - which means the Purge continues!Action Comics #883 - Like I've said, I'm sticking with the Superman books. The Reactron crossover was, surprisingly, pretty good so I hope that trend continues...

Rich\'s Pull List - 4th November 2009
The Purge continues this week, although honestly it's a pretty small week anyway - even so, there's one big cut on here for me.SUPERMAN: WORLD OF NEW KRYPTON #9 - This is still a good read and a solid exploration of exactly what makes Superman - well...
A Brutal Week #1: Blackest Night Titans
It's been a damn brutal week in comics - and I mean really brutal.Take Blackest Night: Titans #3.Say what you will about Ed Benes art (such as 'cheesecake' and 'posed') but the man can draw some pretty powerful stuff when he puts his mind to it. I'm ...
Rich\'s Pull List - 28th October 2009: The Purge Begins
This is the week. The week that The Purge starts. There's just too many books to buy - and between the (a few years late) realization last week at BACC that you can pick up a lot of recent books for 50cents or a buck if you wait a few months, and the...
Rich\'s Pull List - 21st October 2009
It could be a big week...Batman: Streets of Gotham #5 - Huntress takes the spotlight. That's good in my book as she's one character that's been a little lost in the recent Batshuffle.Blackest Night: Superman #3 - The Batman series ended badly, but I ...
Rich\'s Pull List - 14th October 2009
At least I think it's the 14th. It may be the 15th - I'm never sure if Columbus Day counts as a holiday for comic shipping delays; all I know is that it counts as a holiday for me, so I'm good with that. Anyway...could be a massive week.Action Comics...
Endless love
In the last ish of Green Lantern, the power source for the Zamorans' Violet Lantern was revealed to be the corpses of Khufu and Chay-Ara of Earth...better known as the original Hawkman and Hawkwoman.DC has managed to screw up Hawkman quite a bit sinc...
Rich's Pull List - 7th October 2009
I'm even stupider than I thought. I accidentally added this to be posted in the PM instead of the AM, which means that my last post makes little sense. Maybe now it will.After what has been a heavy few weeks, this one is finally a little smaller.Batm...
Miss Martian. Panty shot. Cue outrage...
Over at Newsarama there's a preview of the awesomely terrible (not the same thing as terribly awesome) Justice League: Cry for Justice #4, where Miss Martian is confronted by Green Arrow villain Brick, in spite of him being pretty solidly killed a fe...
Rich\'s Pull List - September 30th 2009
Not quite as bad as the last few weeks - thankfully:Blackest Night: Titans #2 (of 3) - I cannot explain why I like the Titan titles. Like I've said before, I find a lot of the cast incredibly dull and don't have the attachment to them that a lot of W...
...Justice! (League of America)
Last week's DC books ran an ad revealing the JLA line up for the upcoming James Robinson/ Mark Bagley run on the book which, apparently, spins out of Robinson's unintentionally amusing Justice League: Cry for Justice mini.For those that can't make ou...
Smallville's Cat Grant
Sanctuary's Emilie Ullerup has apparently been cast as Cat Grant in the upcoming season of Smallville.She's pretty.The role appears to be for one episode only at the moment, so hopefully this version of the future Daily Planet gossip columnist can av...
Rich's Pull List
Jeez, another big week after last week's hammering.Blackest Night: Superman #2 - Yes, its a tie-in but sometimes a good old-fashioned slugfest is what you need. Personally I'm rooting for a Black Lantern Streaky the Supercat.Detective Comics #857 - ...

Rich's Pull List - 16th September 2009
It could be a big week as both of the big two appear unconcerned about giving my wallet a break...Action Comics #881 - The Supergirl/Flamebird throwdown kicks off, presumably because Supergirl is a bigger draw than Nightwing and Flamebird. Hope the b...
Dear Tim, Stuck in past, send help, K? Thx BW
via dcu.blog.dccomics.com Well. That didn't last long, did it? Posted via web from Comic By Comic's Wonderous Posterous! ...
Once again, nothing of interest happened yesterday.
Just like last week, nothing of note happened yesterday.Or at least, nothing that will hugely affect the comics you pick up week to week.How it affects the creation of those comics, and the approval process associated with it, is, I suspect, a differ...
Rich's Pull List - 10th September 2009
It's refreshing to have that extra day off (thank you, Labor Day), but that means that new comic day in the US is Thursday, not Wednesday...Adventure Comics #2 - The adventures of Superman when he was a boy, only not. This is off to a good, if unspec...
Pleasantly surprised
I haven't had a chance to read everything I picked up yesterday, although I was pleasantly surprised by Justice League: Cry for Justice #3 - even if Hal, Ray, Ollie and Supergirl all came off as completely out of character, and I still think that the...
Rich's Pull List - 2nd September 2009
After a couple of weeks that were very heavy, we've finally got a light week!Batman #690 - This has been pretty entertaining under Winick, and I'm very much on board with Dick as Batman.Justice League: Cry for Justice #3 - This, I have to admit, is m...
Dance, little Pyg, dance!
Batman and Robin has been quite amusing so far. It's always fun to see a good artist try and make a coherent comic out of Grant Morrison's stories, and Frank Quitely has a good stab at it, leading to a book that's fun and readable. When Phillip Tan t...
