I love those...but I am loosing my job in less than 2 weeks, and have to cut. I'll catch back up eventually. Beside my one shop keeps missing issues here and there (the only one of the AMVAMP mini I got in my box was #2) and the fact that oddball stuff keeps ending up in there...I just cannot continue this way anymore. Have to cut back and catch up where and when I can.

quote:Originally posted by Cobalt Kid: I'm also collecting more DCnU than I intended!
I've actually made some small cuts on comics I wasn't truly enjoying to make more room for them:
Super Dinosaur Ultimate Spider-Man (in fact I passed on all the Ultimate relaunches) The Dark Tower (just doesn't thrill me like the novels did). House of Mystery (cancelled but I was gonna axe it anyway).
There's a few more that might be cut but in a lot of cases the publishers are making my list smaller anyway.
Nonetheless, I'm still collecting way more comics in Oct than I was in Aug!
One of the things Marvel is trying to sneakily do is while they shrink their line and cancel titles, is make a lot of comics ship bi-monthly so readers are spending double every other month or so. As expected, there is no announcement as they try to pull a fast one rather than be up front about it. It's not a bad policy if the series is fantastic--I'll take 2 a month if I love the series. Unfortunately, many comics I only casually like are the ones coming out way too much. So I've begun cancelling a few, since I'm constantly trying to trim my DC's these days to make room for all the excellent comics from Image, Dynamite and other publishers.
Out (prob more to come) Hulk - the Red Hulk one X-Factor Avengers Academy
I also dropped I, Zombie. I love the art but the story just hasn't been doing it for me. For a number of month I could hardly do more than breeze through and look at the art and that's just not enough to keep me buying.

As I am getting back into reading comics, I am also making cuts so pull list is far from finalized.
Recently cut Animal Man and Batwoman.
Also cut New Mutants (mainly due to far too many EVENT and X-crossovers), which means for the first time ever my pull-list has NO monthly Marvel titles on it. I *will* still read any YOUNG AVENGERS and MARVEL ZOMBIES titles that come out though.

Hey Pete! Yep, Children's Crusade is really really good... The Young Avengers stuff has been excellent. I wish this creative team could produce monthly, it really is the level of Claremont/Cockrum/Byrne X-Men or Levitz/Giffen LSH for me.

Hey Pete! Great to see you back here! What'cha reading these days?
I second Lash's recommendation for Young Avengers--it's damn near perfect, except for the fact that its so unreliable schedule-wise.
Daredevil is my absolute favorite comic book by DC or Marvel these days. It has my highest recommendation! It totally kills everything else the big two publish.
Lash, the one comic that I'm just shocked you're not reading it Atomic Robo! It's so right up your alley! The tone, the humor, the crazy usage of super-science...it's as if the creative team of Matter-Eater Lad: the Series started up a comic book company and needed a series to publish first and then recognized that there was only one contender: Atomic Robo.
