Dropped:
Captain America, Secret/New Avengers, Ultimate Titles - Because they're not worth the $4 and I just don't care.
Added:
Venom - Tony Moore artwork, plus I'm sure it'll be well written.
Tarot - Guilty pleasure, plus I like boobies.
Batgirl - Great story & artwork.
Hellraiser - Loved the first movie & the concept of the 2nd, ignored the sequels, liked the old comics, and I'm looking forward to new series from Dynamite.
Godzilla - Because it's Godzilla, and I just want it to be kick-my-ass awesome.
Bomb Queen - Another guilty please, like Tarot, that I only recently got turned on to...heh, heh.
Memoir - From the write of Choker, so I can't pass it up. I picked up the first issue and was sold immediatly on the artwork.
Lil' Depressed Boy - Picked up the first issue, read it, loved it, so I'm adding it & hoping it does well enough to continue...plus I love how Image publishes stuff like this.

I also added the Hail Hydra! mini-series from Marvel...Tom (Godland) Scioli was doing an in-store signing at my local shop here in Pgh a few weeks back when issue #2 came out (and yes, Tom is awesome and seeing the original pages, which were friggin' huge! Like 15x25, something crazy like that), so I'm going to keep buying that, even though it'll be different artists per issue.

Welcome to the club man. It's sad here. Yeah, it's unfortunate...I really just wanted the book to kick ass and I stopped caring once it became clear that Steve did not truly die and came back the way he did, now he's in a couple different titles I don't care about anymore, everything got stupid and I refuse to pay $4 for it. On the bright side there are many other good comics out there that I've replaced it with. |

Sorry man, Cap just hasn't been working for me...I'll try to refrain from calling it stupid though, that's not cool..I think I gave it up around #602 or something like that. I also recently added Digested from creator Bobby N., and thanks to Chris Neseman for mentioning this book a few months ago (can't actually remember how long it's been), from Gestalt Comics. |

In all fairness there have been some pretty big problems with the book plot-wise. I'm getting tired of having Cap/Bucky getting thrown into prison. I just don't want to believe it. |

coincidently I picked up the book around the same time that Neseman did. I have to say that I enjoyed the second issue way more than the first dropped powers...mainly because it doesn't come out anymore and fuck it, it's been running hot & cold way too much lately added ... I guess I haven't added anything. i did order 2 issues of Spongbob, but that's all I want from that title, a taste. |

I thought Zemo and The Trial of Cap brought it back. And now Steve Rodgers backups of varying lengths  |

Recently added:
Detective Comics

Excited to start Ruse, and to a lesser extent, Sigil (tough to argue with Carey and Kirk on the latter).
Currently on the cancellation bubble:
Next Men
Heroes for Hire
Birds of Prey
Legion of Super-Heroes and Adventure Comics -- not grabbing me like I'd hoped they would; gonna give the Legion of Super-Villains arc, Phil Jimenez and Legion Academy a chance to win me back.

For me, it felt like Brubaker and company decided to crank up the cheese once Bucky donned the costume (not just villain wise, but dialog, art, plot...). It's a completely different comic than the one I loved. |

Dropped
Batman and Robin: Cornell's arc was terrible but I was anxiously awaiting the new creative team. Unfortunately, despite Gleason's amazing art, the first two issues were thoroughly disappointing. Damien's characterization is completely wrong and Tomasi writes Dick as if he's still Nightwing.
New Avengers: Oh Immonen I miss you so. The first arc of this series was amazing but since then this books has been anything but.
Add:
Hulk: Hardman's a beast. I picked up issue #29 on a whim and now I'm obsessed with Hardman's art.
Captain America: I dropped this because the Omni's come out so regularly but with Samnee working on the co-feature how can I not read this book?
GL Emerald Warriors: Its a GL cross-over so I have to read it.

I mostly have let ending titles just drop off my pull list
in a respectful, natural death, but it has been months
since I've added titles to my pull list.
That changed last week w/ Animal Man.
I have other DC titles that predate the relaunch,
but this is the first Nu52 title I've actually added to my pull.

I'm getting closer & closer to dropping all monthlies save stuff like The Unwritten & Mignola books. I'd rather just read them in chunks whether that means trade waiting or buying up the issues in digital. yup this means dc 52 as well. I'd be good reading 3 issues in a row every 3 months and rotating series like that. Just something that I've been considering. i'm actually thinking of dropping Amazing Spider-man, i loved the beginning of Slott's run, but it just hasn't been doing it for me lately.
I quit after the first collection. I like it, but it wasn't clicking with me. I guess it was too many guest stars for me. |
