This week’s pull features the climactic end to DC’S BLACKEST NIGHT and, coincidentally, the mediocre end of MARVEL’s NECROSHA. But where one giant story arc ends, another begins. However, as I said before, I’ve had to cut back on our weekly pickup. So I’ll continue on with DC’s BRIGHTEST DAY as well as THE RETURN OF BRUCE WAYNE, and skip on X-MEN’S SECOND COMING as well as the relaunching of the AVENGERS titles.

This week we’ve got:
• BLACKEST NIGHT # 8
• DETECTIVE COMICS # 863
• JUSTICE LEAGUE OF AMERICA # 43
• JUSTICE SOCIETY OF AMERICA # 37
• THE OUTSIDERS # 28
• TEEN TITANS # 81
• X-FORCE # 25

PICK OF THE WEEK: BLACKEST NIGHT # 8

Written by GEOFF JOHNS; Art and Cover by IVAN REIS, OCLAIR ALBERT and JOE PRADO; 1:25 Variant Cover by RODOLFO MIGLIARI ; 1:100 Sketch variant Cover by IVAN REIS

The extra-sized conclusion to the most talked-about event in comics is here, and the results will change the course of the DC Universe for years to come. Earth has become the final battleground for life versus death, but how will our heroes fight back against the darkness of sentient space itself? And what does the future hold for Green Lantern, The Flash and the rest of the world’s greatest heroes and villains? Find out here as the stage is set for the next epic era of DC Comics!

Keith also hooked me up with something pretty cool. He found the Halo 3 Field of Battle Red Spartan 11 Inch Statue Figure by Kotobukiya on clearance and sold it to me for $30!

Thanks Keith!

HAPPY READING!

More Comic-Con spoils. This time from the Wizard World Chicago. Light spending this year. Partly because Serena got sick and did not get as many commissions as she did last year. I mostly did some back issue hunting and was successful in finding some Aspen Comics Serena had missed. I didn’t go over our budget and we brought home some pretty good spoils.
