Weekly Comics Discussion – November 30, 2005

The shipping
lists
are light this week, presumably because it’s
the fifth week of November so the regular releases
were spread out some. The items that caught my eye
are below.

DC Comics

  • CRISIS ON INFINITE EARTHS ABSOLUTE EDITION
    HC
    – This
    collection retails for $99.99US. For the devoted fans
    only, I’d wager.
  • NEIL GAIMANS NEVERWHERE #5 (OF 9) (MR)
    This miniseries
    continues.

Marvel Comics

  • AMAZING SPIDER-MAN VOL 10 NEW AVENGERS TP
    – This TPB
    collects the first issues of Amazing
    Spider-Man
    following the
    release of New Avengers #1.
  • CAPTAIN UNIVERSE SILVER SURFER – The
    fifth week event
    continues. How much more power can the Silver Surfer
    really get? The
    guy could rewrite his local reality when he was first
    introduced.
  • EXILES #73 – The World Tour
    continues.
  • NEW AVENGERS #13 – One of the two items
    I’ll be taking
    home today. By the end of this story arc, we should
    finally know the
    identities of every character who appeared on the
    cover of the first
    issue.
  • ULTIMATE FANTASTIC FOUR #25 – The second
    item I’ll be
    taking home today introduces Ultimate Namor. (Well,
    he was introduced
    last issue, but he had one panel and no dialogue, so
    that doesn’t
    really count.)
