I finally start a comics blog, and what do I do? I decide to cancel this week's Favorite Panel Friday.
And for once it's not just laziness or a too-tight work schedule. No, no - this time it's because the comic shop I've been going to lately tends to order short, so this week I got screwed on The Damned #3 and The Spirit #1.
Now, I've already talked about The Damned and how much I've been enjoying it, and I was really looking forward to the new version of The Spirit. I'm a fan of Darwyn Cooke's, I'm a fan of The Spirit, and everything I've heard about the update of the character has been pretty positive.
So, of course, I haven't been able to read it yet (except for a preview, available here). But, I'm almost positive The Spirit #1 would have held my favorite panel of the week. To be honest, it probably would have been my favorite book of the week.
Because of all that, there isn't going to be a Favorite Panel Friday this time around. But that's not going to stop me from saying you should pick up The Spirit #1; as soon as my store re-orders it, I know I will.
The Spirit #1: Darwyn Cooke, writer/artist

Well, I guess this passes muster as a fair start. C'mon now, get serious, you can blame the comic store all you like but there is only one thing keeping you from posting up here--the fact that nobody gives you the time you need to do it! I'll take 'em all out! All of 'em! I think you know where I'll start too...
