- Six from Sirius by Doug Moench & Paul Gulacy.
- Fullmetal Alchemist, vol. 21 by Hiromu Arakawa. This looks like it is gearing up towards a finale in a few more volumes. (Checked out of the library.)
- Gravel, vol. 2: The Major Seven by Warren Ellis & Mike Wolfer. More adventures of combat magician Sergeant Major William Gravel.
- What a Wonderful World!, vol. 1 by Inio Asano. Slice of life manga stories. (Library.)
- Grandville by Bryan Talbot. Anthropomorphic detective story featuring Detective Inspector LeBrock of Scotland Yard.
- Secret Invasion: X-Men by Mike Carey, Cary Nord, & M.A. Sepulveda. (Library.)
- 20th Century Boys, vol. 6: Final Hope by Naoki Urasawa. Still loving this series, although I wonder if Urasawa can keep up the quality through another 18 volumes. (I have noticed that a fair number of manga series go on longer than they really should. An unfortunate by-product of serialized publication.)
- Batman: Monsters by various.
- PvP, vol. 6: Silent but Deadly by Scott Kurtz. Collection of the web-comic. (Library.)
- Superman: Daily Planet by various. A collection of stories featuring the staff of the Daily Planet.
- The Wonderful Wizard of Oz by L. Frank Baum, Eric Shanower, & Skottie Young. Beautiful adaptation of Baum's novel (not the movie). I haven't read the book since I was a child, so there are quite a few incidents that I had forgotten. Can't wait to see the next novel adapted. (Borrowed from Teena.)
- Copper by Kazu Kibuishi. I did not realize that this was a web-comic until I read the book. I had just seen the Copper stories in the Flight anthologies. (Borrowed from Teena.)
- The Boys, vol. 5: Herogasm by Garth Ennis & John McCrea. It's still completely over the top, and there are still plenty of jokes, but Ennis's examination of super-heroes seems to be getting more serious. (Library.)
- No Hero by Warren Ellis & Juan Jose Ryp. Another deconstruction of super-heroes.
Just a couple of movies this week.
- RiffTrax: Planet of Dinosaurs. Oh, the tragic 70s fashions & hair.
- RiffTrax: Voodoo Man. Bela Lugosi.
