We'll do the January Previews call on Friday Jan 4th @ 5pm pacific time. Starting with the Indies this month....

Also, Cameron just sent John & I an advance copy of the Excel sheet, which John has up here: http://www.ComicBookPage.com/Podcast/Da ... ry2008.xls (approved for download by Cameron for us to use on the Previews call). It still needs a few tweaks (coupon codes are not working yet, for one thing) but all the discounts are listed.

Submissions should be in by Saturday Evening, Jan 12th, but sending them in earlier would be good too

DARK HORSE
BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER SEASON 8: #12

GREEN ARROW/BLACK CANARY #6
* Jump-on point as GA/BC turn to solve mystery of wedding kidnapping

GREEN LANTERN #29
* One of the best writers in comics, Geoff Johns, starts the GL "Secret Origin" story arc!

JACK KIRBY’S O.M.A.C.: ONE MAN ARMY CORPS HC
* Jack's classic, cool stuff for people who know of OMACs from the Crisis books

FABLES #71
* New story arc w/Cinderella in cloak-and-dagger action.

THE VINYL UNDERGROUND #6

IMAGE

MS. MARVEL #25

NOVA #11
* New storyline, people need to stick around for this great book now that Annihilation is over.

EARTH X TRILOGY COMPANION TPB
* Alex Ross is a perennial favorite, lots of material from him should make fans want this one.

IDW
STAR TREK: NEW FRONTIER #1
* Peter David brings his New Frontier novel setting to comics for the 1st time!

FX #1
* New hero with art by legendary John Byrne!

I share some of those. New Frontier and TSSTG especially. And since I finally got a mic I can add a couple of my own. I hope you guys will forgive me for not joining in on the Previews call. It is usually too chaotic, my kids running through the house. Still if I can get there, I will sure try. I have enjoyed the spotlight, and think it is a great addition to Previews.

Is it just me who is annoyed that DC has the last part of the Batman Crossover is solisited along with the hardcover for the same story?

Is it OK if I mention these ones:
THE STARMAN OMNIBUS VOL. 1 HC
ABSOLUTE SANDMAN VOL. 3
MICE TEMPLAR #4
HELLBOY: THE COMPANION

Also I think there will be a Living Corpse coming out then too but I have to wait for the Zenoscope releases that I'd like to mention.

That is annoying. They should have at least waited a month to list the collected edition.

I shall certainly try and make the call. If not, I'll get my submissions in at least.

Chris Johnson (Koete) has dibs on Goon #22

Submissions should be in by Saturday Evening, Jan 12th, but sending them in earlier would be good too

For all those wondering where I had to go after getting off the call this is a hint hehehe



That's the start of my Xmas gift from my wife hehehe

Can I call dibs on Echo #1, Terry Moore's new self published series?
