When I said I was cutting a few titles from my pull list, I was dead serious. With this week’s pick up, X-Men Legacy and [Dark] Wolverine have been pulled from my pile and shelved without a second thought. No skimming through the issues were needed. Sure, it’s a new creative team and a new story arc in both books but my interest them have dwindled greatly from the past few story arcs that I’m not gonna bother just collecting the series for the sake of collecting. That would just be a waste of money. This cuts my Marvel pull to about 9 titles. Well, 8 titles, because Astonishing X-Men isn’t on any kind of regular schedule. My DC list keeps growing. I recently added Power Girl and Batman: Streets Of Gotham to my pull list. I really enjoyed the first 5 issues of each book and hope that both books have a long way to go before peaking.

• BATMAN CONFIDENTIAL # 35
• BATMAN: STREETS OF GOTHAM # 5
• BLACKEST NIGHT: SUPERMAN # 3
• DEADPOOL: MERC WITH A MOUTH # 4
• JUSTICE LEAGUE OF AMERICA # 38
• THE OUTSIDERS # 23
• POWER GIRL # 6
• SOULFIRE # 1
• WOLVERINE: ORIGINS # 41

PICK OF THE WEEK: JUSTICE LEAGUE # 38

Written by James Robinson; Art and cover by Mark Bagley; Variant cover by Andy Kubert

A new era begins for the World’s Greatest Heroes as superstars James Robinson (STARMAN, SUPERMAN) and Mark Bagley (TRINITY, Ultimate Spider-Man) take over! It all begins as a one-time member of the JLA falls before he can warn the team of looming peril while what’s left of the JLA journeys to the heart of their past to decide if the team has any future at all.

Of course, that means this is the best time for a savage villain from the team’s past to attack the demoralized heroes! The team will have to muster enough will to win not only today, but in the harrowing months to come. It’s the start of a spanking new odyssey for the JLA that will lead in the coming months to a fresh line-up for DC’s flagship team. Get onboard now for the next epic chapter of the Justice League’s legacy!
