    They are eight pages larger than normal. Though some of that may be ads. They probably put those cardstock covers on them too.

    The Black Dossier is the latest League of Extraordinary Gentlement trade, and it included a set of 3-D glasses for use during the final chapter (which took place primarily in the Blazing World).

    It disappoints me that they randomly got Jim Calafiore to do the Batman & the Outsiders cover, since all the other covers have been really fantastic and his is just sort of flat and uninteresting and blah.

    Also, that Birds of Prey cover is kind of awesome.

    Does anyone else find the fact that there are Watchmen action figures utterly surreal?

    I mean, I know it was bound to happen with the movie and all, but... there's an Ozymandias action figure. An actual, honest to goodness, real life Ozymandias action figure.

    And yeah, I'm pretty sure Rouges Revenge will be awesome.

    apparently August is Catwoman's final issue, despite July's being solicited as such

    Infinity Inc is canceled, too, which isn't surprising.

    Every month I'm surprised that Simon Dark isn't. I love the book, but I can't see it lasting long
