There is a ton of good reading this week but we wanted to highlight the new release of the Absolute Watchmen Hardcover.  This oversized hardcover collection, packaged inside a beautifully designed slipcase, will be the cornerstone of any serious comic book collection. Each page of art has been restored and recolored by and approved by Gibbons to appear as originally intended. Additionally, this monster contains 48 pages of supplemental material produced exclusively for the this edition and not seen since their original publication. Included therein is a cornucopia of rare and historically valuable treasures, including samples of Moore’s WATCHMEN scripts, the original WATCHMEN proposal, Gibbons’s conceptual art, cover roughs, and much, much more!  MUST OWN!!

Happy Halloween!  I guess we should have posted a scarier book to highlight this week.  Thor is rather pretty so that does not really work.  However, Thor is a book we look forward to each month.  This is especially note worthy given the fact that Thor has always been one of our least favorite Marvel characters.  Now he is easily in our tops!  If you haven’t been reading it, be sure to pick up the first volume of the graphic novel.  And have a safe Halloween!!!  Boooooo!

New book day - Ghost Rider edition!!  We’re going to give Ghost Rider the official award for most underrated character in the Marvel Universe.  He looks pretty damned cool and the book has a history of amazing art.  Sure, Nicholas Cage almost ruined the whole thing but Ghost Rider will survive.  This week Ghost Rider Danny Ketch #1 will be released.  This book should be a great follow-up to the popular 90’s Ghost Rider series!!  Check it out!

New Book Day!  Many of you give us hell for loving our PS3’s so much!  This might be true but it doesn’t mean we don’t have a 360 and it doesn’t mean that Gears of War isn’t one of the best games we’ve played this decade.  Bonus for us that Gears of War has a comic coming out this week from DC/Wildstorm! Check out the rest of the books shipping this week below!

It’s new book day!  This makes all of us smile.  However, this week, instead of highlighting a favorite comic we’re going to talk about Tara McPherson.  We’ll do this not just because we have love for her but also because Dark Horse has released a fun treat called Tara McPherson’s Somewhere Under the Rainbow Coloring Kit!!  This fantastic “kit” comes in an easy-carry heavy-gauge clear vinyl bag with zipper enclosure, and includes: 96-page coloring book featuring 48 pieces of outstanding black and white art by Tara McPherson.

New book day!  Yes, it is a day late due to labor day.  There are a few books we have to read this week.  We also noticed Boys #22 is out.  Number 22??  Wow, that book has been moving along.  We love Ennis and Robertson but we gave up on that one 15 issues ago.  Has it been good?  Should we catch up?  Curious.
