Well, I picked up three weeks of comics and I basically added EVERYTHING I've wanted to try plus all the Marvels, DC's and independents I've been collected.
I'll be doing a lot of reviews shortly (except for all those threads where I made the last 2-3 replies--hey LW, help a legend out on those ).

I picked up Mystery Society today myself, and will prob review shortly.
I only went to see if they had Zorro #2 which I need (they didn't so I *had* to buy something).

All of the above were $2.99 books, as I am trying to keep my $3.99 purchases to a bare minimum, or better yet stop them alltogether.
but I *did* buy these $3.99 books:
DCU LEGACIES 1... first of all, Len Wein's recent stuff has been awesome, the artists are top-notch and I **love** DC's Golden Age heroes set in the Golden Age! Add in Stealth's not-easy-to-get praise, and I couldn't pass this up.
ADVENTURE 11... I passed on isseu 10 last month, but this, based on the cover, is heavy on the LSH. So I got it...

Of my above purchases, the only ones I didn't thoroughly enjoy were WARLORD (spotty art) and BRAVE & BOLD (slow paced but props for a big reveal and some witty dialogue).

I've been 'taste testing' a bunch of stuff lately, like Power Girl #12 which I liked a lot (as I mentioned on that book's thread) ...
Brave and the Bold #34 - stunning artwork ... great one-liners ...
War of the Supermen #4 - again, loved the artwork ... felt like I was reading Cliff Notes though ... was this originally supposed to be a longer series?
Return of Bruce Wayne #2 - I never read Final Crisis ... was it as unnecessarily convoluted as this?
Wonder Woman #44 - made me wish I'd starting reading Gail Simone's run earlier ...

Debated HEAVILY about getting Secret Avengers 1, but decided to stick to my guns and leave it. Very tempting, though!
Looked thru Mystery Society 1. Left it because I remembered Cobie's review as being a little less positive than it actually was. D'oh! Maybe I'll pick it up next week instead. (Next week is looking a bit light...)

^Yeah, you should totally pick up Mystery Society next week! I think you'll like it enough to continue for a few issues.
Whenever I get to the CBS, I'll review the various Avengers relaunches (with positive reviews on JR Jr's art probably ). I'll want to base it on my personal preferences but also "would I think a disheartened former-Marvel fan would like it?" (re: you, Lardy and some others).
Power Boy--you should totally review the Guild on LW! I've scene articles about it but have never read anything. Use the "Random Review Thread" if you don't feel like starting a new topic.
