January solicits are out.
- Lazarus Planet, appears to be the smaller post-big-Crisis-Crossover event. I do like a lot of the writers and characters involved. As my economic situation is still in flux, I'm gonna have to say, despite general interest, I may only get this as a trade later on.
- Batman: The Adventures Continue returns for season 3. This time around, I'm gonna trade-wait this.
- Goddammit, Legends of Gotham written by Andy Diggle and co-starring Black Lightning and Katana, this feels really tempting. If this was a one-shot, I'd buy it, if it was a mini-series I'd trade-wait, but this isn't marked as either, nor is it marked as an ongoing, in which case I'd probably have to ignore it. Dammit, DC, please tell us this kind of stuff.
- Gonna pass on the Valentine's Day special.
- The new Action Comics anthology is 48 pages strong and still holds the $4.99 cover price, which is very nice. I was afraid it would raise its price with the new format.
- DC Power, anthology special for Black History Month. Tempted, but at this point I gotta say no.
- Dammit, does the new Flash story arc really need an over-sized special one-shot companion to the regular book? Well, okay, but just for that, I'm not gonna spend the four bucks on the Flash #123 facsimile.
- Is it me, or does the new Dark Knight Detective volume have a lower cover price ($24.99) than most recent previous volumes? Is DC trying to push prices down to get more readers? Hard to believe, but I'm tempted.
- Speaking of tempting, DC Universe by Dwayne McDuffie. Man, I'd love that, but at 40 bucks, it really depends on my financials at the time this is released.
