Despite the fact that he brought me flowers, I didn't completely trust this fellow.
Pete Kilmer has been in the comics retail industry for ten years as a member of Downtown Comics in Indianapolis. 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 Burn Notice to steal Fiona from Michael Weston and I'm a bought man.

New stuff of interest this week includes a Blackest Night Director's Cut, along with some first issues for several series. Human Target returns to comic book form now that the FOX television series has had its season finale. If the series is as good as the show, it's definitely worth a look. Also coming back to comics is the Spirit, which can only do better here than in the film adaptation. And finally Spell Checkers #1 looks pretty interesting. It's a book from Oni Press about some high school witches, with some nice looking art. Definitely an intriguing title.
