It's a big stack week for me,

I've got a ton of books coming out this week but before I get into that lets talk about Podcasts. Our Comic Book Review Podcast and Pull List Podcast 4-27 are up on our blog home page and Itunes, so go check them out to here more details on what we picked up last week and what we are picking up today.


4-26 Pull List
Batman Incorporated #5 $2.99 - Its a maybe for me. Schuyler wants to see where things are headed with Morrison at the Helm but I'm a little on the fence on this one.

Detective Comics #876 $2.99 - Both Schuyler and I are loving this book. The Commissioner Gordon-centric story has been great.

The Walking Dead #84 (MR) $2.99 -  without spoiling things, is he going to die? Who will live? Kirkman is continuing to do an incredible job on this series.

Age of X: Universe #2 (of 2) $3.99 - Why Not finish it out? Universe has been interesting, more than the actual crossover has been for me.

Amazing Spider-Man #659 $3.99 - Another Future Foundation story.

Avengers #12.1 $2.99 - Will I fall for buying another .1 issue? maybe. We will see.

FF #2 $2.99 - Dr. Doom joins the Future Foundation. Will this go badly? I say yes.

New Mutants #24 age of X conclusion $2.99 -

Osborn #5 (of 5) $3.99 - What does the future hold for good old Normie.
Uncanny X-Men #536 $3.99 One-armed Breakworlders have come to earth. Not good news for the X-Men.

Venom #2 $2.99 - Venom and Kraven in the Savage Land.

X-Men #10 $3.99 - Dark Beast, Spider-man, X-Men and the Lizard. Oh and did I mention Chris Bachalo on art, it's a win all around.

Incorruptible $2.99 - I am behind on this but Schuyler keeps reassuring me to keep buying. Ill have some time to catch up soon but if the first 12 are any indication, Incorruptible is worth picking up.

Action Comics #900- Superman is back in Action Comics and the cover is by Alex Ross. Should Be cool.

American Vampire #14 - Schuyler loves this and it's sounded pretty good to me. If i wasn't so tired of vampires I'd be getting this too. If you like vampires pick up this book.

Haunt #15 - Still getting a lot of approval from Schuyler, personally, I may pick up the trades on this title .

Our Podcast is now on Itunes!

Our Podcast is now on itunes, so go search Amazing League in the itunes store and subscribe, listen and write a review. Now all I need to do is figure out how to get our logo to appear instead of the generic podcast icon. Soon it will all be there. Once again I'd like to say Podbean is a great podcast host.
