Lots of stuff for me :

DETECTIVE COMICS #860
BATMAN: STREETS OF GOTHAM #7
JONAH HEX #50 >> 48 pages of Darwyn Cooke goodness
BATMAN: ARKHAM ASYLUM SPECIAL >> Great talents involved
RED HERRING #5
EX MACHINA #47
DAYTRIPPER #1 >> Ba/Moon in their own title!!
AIR #16
DMZ #48
GREEK STREET #6
CINDERELLA: FROM FABLETOWN WITH LOVE #2
FABLES #91
NORTHLANDERS #23
UNKNOWN SOLDIER #15 >> First TPB was great. This book deserves support.
THE UNWRITTEN #8
HUMAN TARGET TP >> Only heard good stuff about this one.
THE STARMAN OMNIBUS VOL. 4 HC
PREACHER BOOK TWO HC
HELLBLAZER: PANDEMONIUM HC >> Art by Jock. Count me in!
FABLES PORTFOLIO SET >> *salivates*

So that's 2 new titles added to the pull list and 3 HCs pre-ordered for the beginning of 2010.

EX MACHINA #47
DAYTRIPPER #1
GREEK STREET #6
FABLES #91
HELLBLAZER: PANDEMONIUM HC
HELLBLAZER #262
THE UNWRITTEN #8


Daytripper sounds interesting enough. Hellblazer Pandemonium does so as well, and it'll probably end up in my stack anyway (since the latest HC did as well), courtesy of the store. It's time for Greek Street to prove it's mettle, though. And The Unwritten, while not bad, does need to pick up steam as well.

I also must add the Fables Portfolio set looks pretty good. They measure x, though? WTF?

Are these the 75 issue Robinson run?
How much is one and how many are there?

Each contain about 17 issues. There'll be 6 volumes in total. I really like the format. I think I'd have prefered to have Sandman in this format rather than Absolutes.

I was just thinking for the price, buying the actual issues is far, far cheaper.

It appears even Sandman can be cheaper than the absolute formats.

Well, yeah I'm sure I could find the whole run for much cheaper than $240 but as opposed to you, I'm more of a trade guy when it comes to older material.

I was more just musing that it seems weird for DC to price something so high for a series with the issues readily available.

How do they look?

They look real nice : slightly oversized hardcover with dustjackets with plenty of extras at the end by James Robinson.
