With no actual issue of Green Lantern for 2 months, the Aftermath mini may be something I pick up now. And I've always wanted Heaven's Ladder, but I hated the oversized format I always found it in. If this is standard, then I'll probably bite.

And with that comes the end of Flashpoint. I'm getting just over half the minis but I'm glad it ends here as I could be moving somewhere around August and losing a good portion of my special discount if I do.

Still, in terms of regular books I feel like there's less than there usually is.

Wading through all the Flashpoint & War of the Green Lanterns bullshit makes it difficult to find my monthly titles.

Justice League of America #60
Batman: Arkham City #5
Gotham City Sirens #26
Birds of Prey #15
Superman/Batman #87
Justice Society of America #54
Xombie #6
Zatanna #16
Fables #108
iZombie #16

I can't believe its going to be 60 issues of the JLA, in which over half of the issues were sub-par.

Tragic, I had originally brought the oversized JLA Heavens Ladder when it came out. I had no idea exactly how "oversized" it would be and was annoyed by it; regardless it was a solid story with a great creative team: Mark Waid & Bryan Hitch. Unfortunately my copy of Heavens Ladder got ruined due to water damage so if its a standard sized reprint of the original; I'll definitely pick it up

Yeah, I've always wanted to read it as I generally enjoyed Waid's run on JLA and Hitch's run as well was pretty good. But yes, the original format is just incredibly awkward and annoying as it won't fit on normal shelves or anything else. So I've always waited. Now I hope I won't have to wait anymore.
