New series/releases:

- Get Naked, a visual essay collection with no less than 19 artists contributing.

Kill or Be Killed #15
East of West #36

That's all for this month. Probably a good thing, because my Marvel pull for January is bigger than it's been, probably ever.

How long does it take for the image solicitation to be ready? I tried to do it for Monstress

[npasto]

Been enjoying Extremity, Kill or Be Killed, and Royal City. Imagine I'll keep picking those up every month.

Thanks for not posting these, CBR. Good work

Definitely:
KILL OR BE KILLED #15
EXTREMITY #10 - Getting a bit heavyhanded and starting to introduce unnecessary things, but still good.
GOD COMPLEX #4 - Gets an arc.
PORT OF EARTH #3 - Gets an arc for the premise alone.
THE REALM #5 - First issue was good, haven't read the second yet.
SNOTGIRL #9 - God, this series is constantly one of the highlights of my comics month.



Maybe:
DISSONANCE #1 - Sounds... okay. Might give it a go if it's a light week.
BONEHEAD #2 - If I pick up the first issue and it's good. And seriously, giving me massive Xorn vibes.
COYOTES #3 - If the first issue is good.

SCALES & SCOUNDRELS, VOL. 1: INTO THE DRAGON’S MAW TP



Random thoughts:

Ice Cream Man threw me off for a sec. Thought it was that Young Animal crossover from DC (which is called Milk Man or something, because of course it is).

Days of Hate sounds interesting. Might give the trade a go.

Thanks for not posting these, CBR. Good work

CBR haven't posted the Image Solicitations in a long time.

[Ilan Preskovsky]

And the front page is such a horrible, money-grabbing mess that CBR is the last place I'd turn to for solicits. Image.com actually has the best presentation of their solicits.

From the looks of that, Moonshine will be returning. From the looks of the solicit, not exactly the way I expected it to come back.

I thought it was only an exception for #175, but now #176 is $3,99, too. I don't think it's justified for a B&W comic which I read often in less than 10 minutes.
