I'm dropping Green Lantern and adding Jonah Hex at my LCS this week. Just not enjoying GL as much as I should. It seems like it's just Brightest Day supplemental material and I'm not reading BD. Hex, on the other hand, seems like it's a good series to buy in singles. Mostly one and done stories and it probably needs the support more than GL. I've been reading Hex in trade, but I feel like making the switch.

I recently dropped all the superman books. I just felt like war of the supermen was a good place to stop reading the books. I will be adding, x-men(I'm not really into vampires, but I loved second coming, so I hope its good) and I will be adding Wonder Woman. I will also be testing out random marvel books, because I barely read anything from them right now.

I dropped JLA finally.  This coincides with dropping JSA a few months back.  Both have been really really bad.  Honestly, Bagley was the only thing keeping me but even he can't anymore.

Also dropped Batman and Detective recently.  Streets of Gotham and Sirens are barely keeping me.  They might hit the chopping block very soon also.

I did however, add G.I.Joe. I was against it when IDW took over as their TF stuff was utterly horrendous.  However, I got the GIJoe/Cobra series and loved it and found issues 1-8 in the $1 bins locally so I grabbed them and loved the series.

I've dropped JLA and JSA, and I agree, Bagley was the only thing keeping me on JLA.

Dropped Incredible Hulk too, cause I didn't want to buy the other Hulk books. Once World War Hulks is over, I think I might pick it back up.

Dropping JLA if the current crossover doesn't hit me over the head with awesome.  Hopped on to see Dick on the JLA and the Bagley pencils, but it's been rather uninteresting.  Surrender

Well, I have dropped all avengers titles in favor of ordering a hardcover from dcbs each month. I wasn't not enjoying the avengers books, their just something I will come back to. I've also welcomed sweet tooth to my pull list!

Finally dropped Fantastic Four.  I know a lot of people like Hickman's FF, but it just wasn't grabbing me.

Added the Batman Beyond and Spike minis.

Wait, what Punisher is ending?  As far as I knew, Max was staying and the 616 title was just turing into Frakencastle.

I want to contribute, but it's hard to gauge a drop when you're buying mostly in trade. Most of my adds are new series.

I may start reading Fear Agent. I only have the "Tales" trade.

Oh, I lied. I read Invincible (1st trade) and have ordered up to trade 5. That counts as an add.

Dropping:
Brightest Day- I am not interested in half of the characters in this comic.  It's just not worth it to me with the biweekly schedule.
Green Lantern- I don't feel like I would be missing something outstanding story or art-wise. 
Adding:
Young Avengers- This was so much fun!  I really liked the dynamic between the young students and the "outcast" Avengers.  I really am looking forward to the next issue. 
Green Arrow- I didn't have high hopes, but this along with Flash are my two favourite Brightest Day branded books.  I can get my green lantern fix here it seems.  I am intrigued by the forest...I never thought I would ever say that!     

I'd like to post in this topic more often because I want to start a more consistent, budget-conscious pull list for myself.  We'll see how it goes... Embarrassed
