New comic day was yesterday, and that means some new books were added to my pull list, while others went away. This week I had three adds and one drop, so let’s get to it!

Adds

Lucifer--As someone who has never read Sandman (I know--take my geek card from me now), I had no connection to Lucifer as a character. But like many, I saw there was a TV show coming out, so I figured I'd give this one a shot. Not sure what to expect.

SuperZero--Jimmy Palmiotti and Amanda Conner--that's really enough to get me to try any book. But the premise of this one is pretty awesome--a high school senior decides she wants super powers, and recreates the origins of her favorite heroes in an attempt to get them. Brilliant.


Squadron Supreme--Marvel's version of the Justice League has always been an intriguing concept to me, but I've never really been on board one of their storylines from the get go, so this is a good chance. But the real pull for me is the creative team of Robinson and Kirk, who had a great run on Fantastic Four together.

Drops

We Are Robin--I really wanted to love this series. There were some interesting concepts in this book, but after six issues, it wasn't coming together in the way that I'd hoped. As soon as I saw that issue #7 was part of a crossover, I was out. It's a pet peeve of mine to have books in their first year get pulled into crossovers. The creative team has enough of a challenge establishing the characters, the setting and the first  main arc. They don't need to be interrupted by an event. And so, I bid the book adieu.


Do have any adds or drops this week? Let me know in the comments!
