Cleaning up things a bit tonight and ran across this, which was supposed to run 3/20/14. A little late, but looks ahead at the next Captain America Movie after Winter Soldier.
A lot of the books tied in with the new Captain America Winter Soldier movie have priced themselves out of most speculators price range. However Bleeding Cool ran an interesting story tonight.

DC Bombshell covers for June
I like cheesecake, not the dessert kind, but the pin-up style art work that was popular in the 1950’s (and before and honestly, afterwards.) So, even though I am not a DC reader, I will be picking up some of the DC Bombshell variants coming out next month. Continue reading “DC Bombshell covers for June”

THE DAKOIT WEEKLY SPECULATION HITLIST: MAY 6TH 2014
Here is the latest from our friend Dakoit at The Dakoit’s Book Speculation for Fun
Hey Gang,
FCBD was a blast. Waited for a hour to get into one shop, the owner claiming this year was insanity, last year no waits and this year a line-up that spanned up the stairs, into and around the shop! Crazy.
I did manage to grab everything that I wanted except Uber #0 and The Hip-Hop Anthology, due to limits. Although message boards were raving about the over-sized Street Fighter, in my area(s) it was Rocket Raccoon #1 saw heaviest demand. Two LCS were totally tapped out when I got in at 12pm. Kids just couldn’t seem to get enough of RR! In my observation, the second most sought out comic was probably the GoTG issue, and rounding out in 3rd place, was the Mouse Guard Hardcover, which IMO, was a totally remarkable FCBD giveaway.

Clone first appearance spec
This one comes to us from our friend Topher at www.investcomics.com. He dropped this little gem in the message section and I wanted to spotlight it.
Some people hate this kind of spec, the first appearance via a preview, but this is a good one because it is a Walking Dead book. We all know that Clone has been picked up for a syfy channel tv show. Whether it makes it to air is another story, but spec-ing on on the first appearance may not be such a bad idea.
