That is a new way of looking at flying the friendly skies.

Downtown Comics is one of the Midwest's largest comic retailers with over four locations in Indianapolis. All opinions are his own, and they cannot be bought with free swag. Beer and a walk on role on Chuck to steal Sarah from Chuck and I'm bought.

The hot selling Amazing Spider-Man Anti Venom continues this week and oh look...Grant Morrison graced us with All Star Superman. The terrific kids book Billy Batson and the Magic of Shazam also hits this week. No All Star Batman this week, *$#damnit! Secret Invasion Thor should be solid as I really liked the first issue...otherwise it's a quiet week!

Kim's pick of the week

Air #2

I recommended this one previously without having read the first issue, and I am happy to say it was more than up to my expectations. The story involves a flight attendant who has some very odd things happen to her - from an encounter with a vigilante anti-terrorist group to a meeting with a gentleman whose name changes every time she sees him. It's a story full of intrigue and I found myself very excited to see where it goes next. As Pete mentions, it's a pretty slow week otherwise.
