Well this week's picks were Astonishing X-Men 8 and GL:Rebirth #4. Two books LEAST needing this kind of hype, IMHO. So I good-naturedly needled the guy at the counter, and told him to tell "xxxx" I thought he should do a little research on what DOES need that kind of a push... After all, Manhunter, Ocean, Space Ghost and Academy X all had new issues out this week too. Why push something that's already been hyped to the sky in favor of stuff that's sturggling to survive? I don't get it. Can anybody relate?

And things will be even worse if you have a boy... Poor, poor Poverty Lad. Yet another victim of ROY's devastating charm and stunning array of date rape drugs. Oderint, dum metuant.
