Appetite for DeSHIPtion: March 11, 2009

Up now: http://www.diamondcomics.com/shipping/newreleases.txt

For me:

SPECIAL FORCES #4--well, I'll look at it, anyway
INVINCIBLE IRON MAN #11--this might be my favorite Marvel title at the moment
MARVEL ADVENTURES SUPER HEROES #9--let me just quote the solicitation: "In a time long gone, the Ancient One fought a tremendous battle against the Dread Dormammu, ultimately banishing the ruler of the Dark Dimension back to his own reality by power of a mystically binding contract. Unfortunately for Dr. Strange, that mystical contract is hundreds of pages long, and the Dread One has now found himself one nasty lawyer, and a whole lot of loopholes. Dr. Strange is going to need all the mystical might he possesses, along with the legal prowess of one Mr. Foggy Nelson, Attorney At Law, in order to send Dormammu packing, or maybe just to stay alive!"

JUSTICE LEAGUE INTERNATIONAL HC VOL 04

hmm, what issues are the up to here? does this take it to #25 or so, where the JLA/JLE split starts? interesting to see how they'll handle the split from here what with crossovers and shared annuals etc.

TOP 10 SEASON TWO #4 (OF 4)

if this doesn't show up in the bookshop, will be desperately hanging out for Mcswy's online sale

McSweeney's online sale is on now--it's $15 there, as opposed to $29 at stores.

ooh ooh!

...overseas shipping ranges from $20-$85. We ship USPS.

hrmmm.

if i still bought floppies, i wld buy a floppy w/ kevin nowlan inking garcia lopez, dream team

I've gone and almost bought stuff from McSweeney's twice, but then I get to the shipping cost and it's HUGE if you're outside North America. Balls.

yeah, holy fuck, the already worrying shipping ranges from $20-$85 actually translated into Shipping & Handling $203.40!!!!!!! once I spent two hours going through and picking stuff! For fuck's sake.

So was this the final issue of 'Special Forces'? It had a certain air of "I'm bored with this now--let's wrap this thing up."

SHIT! I knew I forgot something. Well, that much more to look forward to this week.
