Wisdom #1
The usual suspects.

New releases
Abe Sapien: The Drowning #3
More Abe versus ancient evil. Good times.

Action Comics #863
I believe this will finish up the excellent Legion of Super Heroes storyline that I've been enjoying so much. It will be a bitter sweet parting.

Anna Mercury #1
New Warren Ellis miniseries! It's about a girl in leather shooting things, I think. Does it matter?

Batman/Grendel
This is a Dark Horse trade paperback collecting a couple of old crossover miniseries. I'm curious, but I know next to nothing about Grendel, so I actually don't know if I really want this or not. I'm going to have to do some research...

Buffy Season 8 #13
Buffy versus crazy Japanese vampires! Hopefully we'll learn more about Xander's mysterious secret this issue.

Cable #2
Here's hoping Duane keeps up the quality in the second issue of his new ongoing title about the big old time-travelling bad-ass and the tiny little messiah baby.

Dark Kingdom #1
This is a one-shot from Image Comics based on a Frank Frazetta painting. It's about a pirate and it's in a fantasy setting. Thought it might be worth a shot.

Kick Ass #2
I was really on the fence about the first issue of this miniseries about a young kid in a normal world who decides to become a superhero. So I think this will be the deciding issue for me. If it's decent, I'll commit for the rest of the series, and if it's not, I'll drop it.

Omega: The Unknown #7
I'm always excited to read a new issue of this title. Who knows what will happen this time?

Scalped #16
This is probably one of the best comics on the shelves right now. Of course I'll be picking it up.

Secret Invasion #1
Marvel finally unveils the first issue of its much ballyhooed Secret Invasion miniseries which will tell the story of the new Skrull threat. I am prepared for this to suck, but hopefully it will defy my expectations and actually be decent.
