CONVERGENCE #1
SAGA #27

No clue if I'm getting any of the Convergence tie-ins. I'll take a gander at them and decide in store.

SAGA #27
ALL NEW HAWKEYE #2



CONVERGENCE #1
ELEPHANTMEN #63
WALKING DEAD #140


Is it me or is Saga merely.... I dunno, being there? It's been consistently been the weakest comic of my buy pile the last few months. Any hope of it getting better or is this just it? Because if so, it won't make it through summer.

Is there any idea on when it ends, BTW?

CONVERGENCE QUESTION #1 $3.99
SAGA #27 (MR) $2.99

I believe Saga is planned for 60 issues but I'm not sure about this. Also I agree that it's definitely overhyped (yet, if you think it's the weakest, then it means you don't read Bendis' Uncanny X-Men). If you listen to some, it's like the second coming of the comics christ but yeah, it's a good sci-fi story, nothing more. Lazarus is much better.

FIVE GHOSTS #16
SAGA #27
STORM #10

Maybe:
REBELS #1
CONVERGENCE TITANS #1

I'm still enjoying Saga, but it's not the best comic on the stands for me. However, it's not at the bottom of my read pile like some of the X-Men titles. I hope it does go to 60 though, as I'm more a fan of long term but finite series like this after reading through Y, DMZ, and starting Scalped.

I'm going to try Rebels first few issues, but I'd rather get it in trade than singles. I'm considering dropping to singles only for X-Men and Buffy titles.

So that's three more years? I dunno if I can hold out that long. But I'll give it a few more months to decide.

Also, not reading any X-comics. I'm hoping that Convergence and Secret Wars will deliver some new interesting titles (I think I saw something abouw Runaways, and I'd also like some Young Avengers to return to good books).

The Secret Wars Runaways book is just an opportunity to use the name. It has nothing to do with actual Runaways.

I thought I'd read somewhere that some YA characters (and possibly some Runaways as well) would star. Too bad.

What happened to the Runaways anyway? I mean, the YA are sometimes around somewhere (with the notable exception of Kate, she's starring in her own book). But apart from Nico (and Chase?) in that Avengers Arena thingy, I've no clue about them.

Nico is going to be in A-Force I believe, as one of the more primary members of the team.

As for the rest of the YA/Runaways, I can't say I've seen most of them since Older Molly was used in Battle of the Atom, and the YA cast in Avengers Crusade.

A-Force? Do I want to know what that is?

It's an all-female Avengers team. Will launch during Secret Wars. Written by Willow Wilson and I think drawn by Jorge Molina.
Can't be worse than the awful all-female X-Men book by Wood.

Wilson is not so bad, Molina is not bad either. I think I'll pass, though.
