Yesterday’s trip to Keith’s Komix had a bit of surprise. ASTONISHING X-MEN # 34 FINALLY hit the shelf! It’s been so long since I read this title that I had completely forgot that the ‘eXogenic’ story by Warren Ellis was still going on. So I guess it will be another 6-9 months before issue 35 hits the shelves and the story will either continue or conclude then. Aspen’s MINDFIELD finally launches and Serena and I are both excited for this new original series written by J.T. Krul with art by Alex Konat! The ‘Dark Things’ storyline between the JLA an JSA kicks off and BRIGHTEST DAY continues in GREEN LANTERN. Finally, we picked up a copy of COVER RUN: THE DC COMICS ART OF ADAM HUGHES as our hardcover of the week.
