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 Chuck to steal Sarah from Chuck and I'm bought.
Another quiet week for books, but Atomic Robo is out as well as Captain Britian and Final Crisis: Legion of 3 Worlds!
Kim's Picks
I'm once again going to take this opportunity to beg you to pick up Air. It's up to issue #3 now, and I honestly hate that I'm on a business trip right now and won't be able to pick the book up today and read it immediately. It's just that good. For those who haven't been following along, the story is about a flight attendant who meets and falls in love with a very mysterious man. He disappears, and she's now in the process of searching for him. A shadowy syndicate is involved in the whole thing, it appears, but we don't know much about them - yet.
Also, Grant Morrison has written a new Doctor Who series, and if nothing else, it should be pretty interesting. Also, there's a title called Superman & Batman vs. Vampires and Werewolves. Who wouldn't want to pick that up in this glorious Halloween season?
