A Delirious Delegation of Dynamic Delights, Designated for your Delectation on April 11th!
Given the spectacular splash of Vaughn & Avery’s SAGA last month, many will be glad to see #2 out on time and ready this week. Looking forward to Johnathan Hickman’s SECRET #1 this week as well as more of the ongoing AVENGERS vs X-MEN excitement, BATWOMAN, BATMAN & ROBIN, FANTASTIC FOUR and CONAN – oh man – there’s a lot of good books this week…
SAGA #2 - think it'll sell out as quickly as the first issue did?
We just hope we have enough for everyone!

A Calamitous Continuance of Cosmically Creative Comics Creeping into our Collective Consciences!
The book that more or less is firing off the summer like a starter’s pistol is in the shop as of Noon Wednesday, April 4th – AVENGERS VERSUS X-MEN #1, but we also have fun selections like the second printing of ADVENTURE TIME #2, our own foray into Role Playing Game stock with the MARVEL HEROIC RPG, HULK #50, SWEET TOOTH #32, the eternally entertaining WOLVERINE AND THE X-MEN #8, and finally – FINALLY! – Joe can read FLEX MENTALLO (well, he could have illegally earlier but it always made him feel guilty to think about it…). Nope – all in all a GREAT week for comics!

FLEX MENTALLO - Saviour of us all. FINALLY AVAILABLE AS A GRAPHIC NOVEL!
(yes, Joe's very happy...)
Here’s how things looked in our recent appearance on SPACE: THE IMAGINATION STATION!
Here’s the InnerSPACE feature on us courtesy of LOUNGER and friend, Mark Askwith!
THE COMIC BOOK LOUNGE + GALLERY & GUERILLA PRINTING – Together on SPACE!
More from the party at THE COMIC BOOK LOUNGE + GALLERY - see the piece that InnerSPACE ran to help celebrate our opening at
http://www.spacecast.com/article/As-Seen-on-InnerSPACE-Comic-Book-Lounge
No BATMAN love on television, but apparently we’re getting a GREEN ARROW pilot intended for prime time…
…which is not, in and of itself, a bad thing at all. GA was always treated a something of a Batman knock-off in his earliest appearances,and was definitely treated as a surrogate Batman in his appearances on SMALLVILLE. BATMAN is as hot as ever but the WB seems to be a little shy in allowing Bruce Wayne et al to grace our presences on the home version of the wide-screen.
Coming soon? GREEN ARROW on the small screen. Hopefully with a little more reverence for the core concepts than David E. Kelley managed to muster for WONDER WOMAN.
LOUNGErs interested in following GA’s TV progress are invited to check out a site devoted to just that at http://www.greenarrowtv.com
THE COMIC BOOK LOUNGE isn’t LOST in SPACE!!
In fact, you can find us there quite easily!
We like to party - party...
Those of you who may have missed our Grand Opening party are advised to check out InnerSPACE tonight at 6 PM or tomorrow (March 28th) at 9:30 AM to see how they cover the festivities and their interview with Mighty Mike Del Mundo. For more information check out http://www.spacecast.com/ or your local listings!
Our "roomies" at GUERILLA PRINTING had their cover-prop set up - a great chance to get your face on a comic!
