Wilds End will have another mini-series out this year (haven't read the first one, worth a punt?)

It's 11/10. Probably only Rover Red Charlie and Stray Bulllets were better last year. The dialogue is fantastic, the art beautiful and deft and the attrition rate surprisingly satisfactorily high. Can't recommend it enough.

Wilds End is definitely top 5 of the year material for me as well. Just behind stuff like Usagi Yojimbo, Copperhead, and Autumlands.

Lando from star wars, Marvel have done a good job. Lovely art from Alex Maleev. I'd forgotten I'd ordered it and was pleasantly surprised on my day off.

There's a number of the Star Wars comics from Marvel that I'm interested in - Lando and Leia being the prime examples but I'd be tempted by Darth Vadar (always like a villain comic) but I'm waiting for the price to come down on the digital editions... with Marvel that means patience might be required!

And now the dilemma begins - do I sell my hardcovers to trade up for these gorgeous slipcase sets...?

That Kevin O'Neill can do no wrong now, can he?

Slipcases feature quite highly on my list of Pointless Things, but the Nemo one looks just glorious.

Well this thread should have run its course by now BUT even though I think I'm quite well in touch with what's going on in the world of comics ... I'm clearly not. Pottered into Blackwell's today and saw a few books I'd never even heard of. Firstly Woody Guthrie: And the Dust Bowl Ballards, that's part of my wife B'day pressie sorted!

Secondly Bouncer by Jodorowsky. Since we ain't getting Blueberry anytime soon by the look this will have to do (I actually think I had heard of this but forgotten).

Finally I've been thinking of reading some Sven Hassel books for ages now, having loved them as a kid, but kinda worry that they may be a bit crap. BUT I then see that there's a rather lovely looking comics adaption of Wheels of Terror (his first book I think?) out so shall be having some of that.

Now if you chaps would kindly keep me better informed the staff of Blackwells wouldn't have to put up with my over excited fannish yelps!

Veeeery late entry but, by god, i'm actually excited for a Batman comic! It's by Mike Mignola.

In 2015 I'm most excited about 2000AD (including the Megazine), Savage Dragon, and Invincible... ditto for 2016!

I'm sure I'll enjoy some new titles as well, I just am a marathoning stuff kind of guy for most entertainment. I almost can't even look at a fresh new comic if it's under 10 issues.
