Here are a few highlights from this week. Don’t delay, these titles are going fast!

NEW AVENGERS # 20 (Marvel) – Magneto’s back in a big way. That’s about all you need to know.

ETERNALS #1 (Marvel) – Neil Gaiman teams up with John Romita, Jr. to bring Jack Kirby’s legendary characters into the new Marvel Universe. Great opening issue to a series that is likely to be as memerable as 1602.

FLASH #1 (DC) – The Scarlet Speedster is back! But who has control of the Speed Force? Find out here, in the hottest relaunch of the summer!

ULTIMATES 2 #11 (Marvel) – You read that right; it’s actually out. It may be late, but it’s still great (ha!).

Here are the three best-selling graphic novels of the past few weeks. I can vouch for them all – they’re good and cheap.

ACTION PHILOSOPHERS: GIANT-SIZE THING VOL. 1 TP (Evil Twin) – A kind of Philosphy For Dummies comic that is pretty funny and you learn something at the same time. This volume collects the first three sold-out issues and is only $6.95. (That’s $2 dollars cheaper than buying the individual comics!)

DMZ VOL. 1 TP (Vertigo) – This isn’t the first time I’ve talked about this book on here, but if you still haven’t caught on, then now is the perfect time. Only 10 bucks and it collects the first story line of a future civil war-torn America.

FIVE FISTS OF SCIENCE GN (Image) – An original graphic novel that pits Mark Twain and Nikola Tesla against and evil Thomas Edison and J.P. Morgan. If you liked LEAGUE OF EXTRAORDINARY GENTLEMEN, then you should check this book out.
If we are ever sold out of these books, or any of our other graphic novels, just put in a reorder request with us. There’s no extra charge and subscribers still get their 15% discount!

Ever wondered what it’s like to run a comic shop? Check out this article. While it’s not exactly the same as what I go through (that shop is in San Fransico and orders triple what we do), it’s pretty close. Every time I think I’ve got comic orders down to a science, something like 52 (or CIVIL WAR) comes along and mucks it up.
Don’t feel sorry for me though, I brought it upon myself.
