Comics shipping 2/20/08

Here’s a (not necessarily comprehensive) look at comics shipping this Wednesday, along with some minor commentary.  

ABYSS #3 (OF 4)ALIENS OMNIBUS TP VOL 03 (C: 0-1-2)

AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #551 BND

Continuing the Marc Guggenheim-Salvador Larocca run.  I’m enjoying these enough to keep checking them out, though they do seem a little high on their own importance.  Still, fun sort of 80s-style Peter Parker shenanigans.

ANGEL AFTER THE FALL #4

Just a local note — the warehouse that serves a lot of the local stores didn’t get all of these shipped, so your local store might only have about 40% of its order.  The rest should show up next week.  Please don’t harass your retailer unjustly.

ARCHIE #582
ASPEN SHOWCASE GRACE #1

ASSEMBLED FIVE DECADES OF EARTHS MIGHTIEST SC

I had a chance to read this a while back, and I’d say it’s a must for hardcore Avengers fans, and it should be interesting even for many of the casual fans.

AVENGERS CLASSIC #9

BATMAN ALL STAR POSTER

BATMAN AND THE OUTSIDERS #4

BATMAN CONFIDENTIAL #13

BATTLESTAR GALACTICA ORIGINS #3

GREASE MONKEY GN (C: 0-1-2)

GREEN LANTERN HC VOL 01 THE SINESTRO CORPS WAR

This was also on the list last week — but it should actually arrive this week. If you missed this in the comics, or you just want it in a permanent form, this is a great collection kicking of what was the best comics crossover of 2007.
