So it looks like DC will be getting a lot of my money this month

What are you looking forward to?

anything you'll be buying that you normally wouldn't?

have a favorite cover?

(after you read them) how were the books?

I'm playing it by ear. If I see something pop up that looks cool, I'm buying it.

Not really. I'll stick to what I'm all ready pulling unless something gets like glorious reviews and is a must-read.

I might skip my DC titles in September. Not a fan of their September gimmick. The stories are already decompressed enough without having to wait 2 months for the story to progress.

I assume they do that to celebrate the anniversary of the reboot.

@xwraith: I agree. I think it's a good business move as it always provides a one month bump in sales but it isn't for me. I'd rather have the story continue than have the special September issues.

I don't read monthlies anymore but I'm sure it'll be like any other gimmick. Good, bad and things right in the middle.

@cap10nate: @xwraith: It's more or less part of the continuing story Futures End, but I totally get why you feel that way

I would suggest Green Arrow for everyone

it's the last of the creative team Lemire, Sorrentino, and Maiolo, possibly some of the best art around

before Sorrentino moves to Marvel, and Lemire does more indie titles

Edit: Jeff Lemire and Andrea Sorrentino did an interview rhat also includes a 4 page preview (click on the cover near the bottom om the page)

I'll bump this with a list of what titles(that I know of) had importance to the futures end story line

Green Arrow

Action Comics

Earth 2 kind of did, but I think it tied in better with their continuing series and earth 2: World End

and next week World Finest might be the only one

anything anyone enjoyed this week?

I caved and bought Green Arrow for the sole reason that I loved Lemire and Sorrentinos run, it was incredible and tied into the weekly perfectly. I may start picking up Futures End again due to the cliffhanger at the end.

@transformers1024: yeah, I thought that was probably the best Issue of the week, maybe the month

and it looks like Green Arrow is one of the more important characters in Futures End

I'm just going to wait for them to come out in a trade like I did with Villain's Month. Also I'm not really sure why people are calling this a gimmick. The issues don't cost anymore than they regularly would unless you like 3D covers.

@mrtummytumms: I don't blame you for that at all, so much cheaper, but if you're reading the weekly series, there will be a few issues you might want to read soon, but not many

@mrnoital: oh yeah I'm reading the main series as they come out. But the rest I'm just going to wait. I'm glad to see that other people are enjoying future's end though. I was starting to feel like I was the only one.

@mrnoital: I'm hoping that it does do something. Maybe if the present universe jumps ahead to the fixed timeline or something and that's where DC continues their stories.

@mrtummytumms: I'm thinking at the least, heroes from earth 2 come to main earth, at least something like that by the end of Earth 2: Worlds End, not sure how they plan on dealing with all the other regular humans from earth 2

but skipping the 5 years would be a lot like one year later and could be really cool

I actually change my mind...I'm not buying any of them. I'll save my money instead of wasting it on a bunch of one shots.

I don't read Future's End, so the tie ins matter not to me, and even if they are good, I'll save my money...or wait for them to be cheaper later on, on Comixology.

Anyone else's covers not doing that "flicker" effect? Mine just looks transparent and doesn't really move.
