Based on the NCRL list for this week's comics shipping from Diamond, here are a few things to look for at the local comic shop tomorrow:
The Pick of the Week is Desolation Jones #1. It's Warren Ellis & J. H. Williams III doing weird scifi covert ops stuff, which has the potential to be much fun.
In other comics:
Alias finally see a bunch of their debut titles hit the stands, with the first issues of Deal with the Devil, Elsinore, and Killer Stunts Inc. just 75 cents.
Ape Entertainment's Pan Gea one-shot has a definite Vaughan Bode vibe going for it.
Arcana have the first 100 Girls collection.
Dark Horse have the second issue of P. Craig Russell's Conan & the Jewels of Gwahlur.
DC have the final issue of Adam Strange (#8), just in time for the debut of the Rann/Thanagar War. The also have the final issue of Green Lantern: Rebirth (#6); the debut of Gail Simone & John Byrne on Action Comics (#827); and new issues of Fables (#37), Gotham Central (#31), JSA (#73), Majestic (#5), and Wonder Woman (#216).
IDW have the fourth issue of Grimjack: Killer Instinct.
Lightspeed have a new issue of Carla Speed McNeil's Finder (#36).
Marvel have new issues of Astonishing X-Men (#10), Mary Jane: Homecoming (#3), The Punisher (#21), and Ultimate Spider-Man (#77).
Shanda Fantasy Arts have a new issue of Shanda the Panda (#43).
Viper have the second issue of Oddly Normal.
Plenty of good stuff this week, so there's absolutely no excuse for buying the Superman: The Wrath of Gog collection, seeing as it contains the worst Superman comic ever.
