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 Marvel's X-Factor #1, by Peter David & Ryan Sook. Following up on David's Maddrox mini from earlier in the year, this should prove to be fun, especially with Sook on art (bet let's see how long he can keep the schedule up...)
In other comics:
Amaze Ink have a new issue of Scott Roberts' Patty Cake & Friends (#15).
Antarctic debut the new Twilight X: War mini.
Dark Horse have a new Jingle Belle one-shot; new volumes of Little Lulu (vol. 7) and Samurai Executioner (vol. 7); the first of their too-damn-expensive Nexus Archives; and possibly the Serenity prequel collection.
DC have Will Eisner's Best of the Spirit collection; a collection of the best IC-prequel minis, Villains United; and new issues of 100 Bullets (#67), Authority: The Magnificent Kevin (#5), DMZ (#2), Fables (#44), Firestorm (#20), and Majestic (#12).
IDW have a collection of Smoke.
Image have a new issue of Noble Causes (#15), and the uber-expensive Walking Dead Omnibus.
Marvel have a collection of classic Omega the Unknown comics; ring in the holidays with the GLX-Mas Special and a collection of the GLA: Misassembled mini; a digest collection of the Gravity mini; and an issue of New Thunderbolts (#16).
Oni have the second issue of Local.
Rennaissance Press have a new issue of Amelia Rules (#16).
Finally: Must. Resist. Urge. To Make. Jokes. About. Lateness. Of. Secret War #5. And. Hawaiian Dick: Last Resort #3...
Rats. Failed again.

Christmas Covers - December 13
For each day of December until Christmas I'm featuring a Comic Cover Advent Calendar. Just move your mouse over the image to reveal today's special Holiday comic cover. Click on the image to get a larger version.
Jonah Hex enforces the spirit of Christmas at gunpoint on the cover of Jonah Hex #34 by Luis Dominguez.
Come back tomorrow, and every day this month, for a new Christmas cover.
Just 12 more 'get-ups' until Santa!
(Does holiday stress have you feeling backed into a corner? Get into the spirit by listening to Yet Another Music Radio for our Holiday Music 2005 mix for over three hours of seasonal songs.)
(And don't forget Polite Dissent's comic cover advent calendar; Love Manga's advent calendar manga give-away; or my own CBLDF Fund Drive.)
