My comments:

- I'm curious about it, but I think I'm waiting until Cages hits the library.

- Definitely getting the next Goon TPB, although I kind of wish they'd make them thicker. They're done too fast.

- Probably getting the Solomon Kane TPB. What did people think of it?

- Definitely grabbing the new Usagi Yojimbo TPB.

2 definites and one maybe. Not too bad.

I've only read the first 2 issues, but I'm enjoying it so far. It's a lot more moody and atmospheric than Dark Horse's Conan, but that's the intention. The artist does a fine job, and Scott Allie, the writer, (formerly the editor of Conan) knows how to write Kane's personality. I was left wondering why they didn't start off with an "origin" storyline, instead of diving straight into Kane's adventures wandering the European countryside, but I think the way Dark Horse has decided to go about this is perhaps best for a character like Kane...

Anyway, my comments on this month's solicits are...didn't we see all this last month?!? Aliens #1 was offered in the April solicits, and that cover to Conan the Cimmerian #11...looks exactly like the cover to Conan the Cimmerian #10. :confused:

Speaking of Conan, that's all I'll be picking up this month...

Total Price Tag, (with discount): $2.39!
