PREVIEWS June 2008 #237
Posted by TaCk on June 7, 2008
Last week I bought PREVIEWS June 2008 #237 (for items shipping August+ 2008).
Having flicked through it, the following upcoming trade paperback/hardcover comic books are of interest to me…
DARK HORSE
Bernie Wrightson’s FRANKENSTEIN hardcover – This should be the MUST HAVE purchase for any comic book fan this year!
SERENITY: BETTER DAYS tpb – Well priced, due to the smallish size of the tpb, I’ll likely get this and upgrade to the inevitable hardcover version later on.
The UMBRELLA ACADEMY: APOCALPYSE SUITE hardcover – An over-sized Limited Edition at a price of US$79.95 this ain’t a simple purchase, but I’m sure it will be snapped up quickly by the hardcore fan that’s not satisfied with just the trade paperback being released later this month.
DC (VERTIGO)
FABLES: COVERS by JAMES JEAN hardcover – At US$39.95, this is probably for hardcover FABLES fans only. Luckily, Fables is my favorite comic book. 
Y: The LAST MAN Deluxe Edition Book 1 hardcover – Containing the first 10 issues of the series, over-sized at US$29.99, another MUST BUY!
MARVEL
DARK TOWER – The LONG ROAD HOME hardcover – I enjoyed the first hardcover series of Dark Tower, even though it was quite unconventional.
ELEKTRA by Frank Miller Omnibus hardcover – Yup, another essential purchase.
TOMB OF DRACULA Omnibus volume 1 hardcover- This is looking like one very expensive month!
SPIDER-MAN LOVES MARY JANE volume 2 hardcover – One of my favorite comic books FINALLY gets its’ second hardcover release.
LOGAN hardcover – The 3 issue mini-series written by Brian K. Vaughan.
X-MEN: LEGACY “DIVIDED HE STANDS” hardcover – X-Men has been pretty good in the past year or so.
The TWELVE volume 1 hardcover – I’ve been looking forward to this J. Michael Straczynski series all year.
CLANDESTINE: BLOOD RELATIVE hardcover – I enjoyed reading the “classic” hardcover, so will definitely give this a try.
INDIE COMICS
(ABSTRACT STUDIOS) ECHO volume 1 tpb – Collecting the first 5 issues of the Terry Moore series.
(ANARCHY STUDIOS/HARRIS COMICS) VAMPIRELLA: CRIMSON CHRONICLES MAXIMUM tpb – Great value at 400+ pages for US$17.95.
(ASYLUM PRESS) The BOMB tpb – It looks like a super fun book based upon that front cover!
(DEVIL’S DUE PUBLISHING) SERPO original graphic novel – Looks interesting.
(IDW) DOCTOR WHO – AGENT PROVACATEUR tpb – Some David Tennant original stuff.
(ONI-PRESS) QUEEN & COUNTRY: DEFINITIVE EDITION volume 3 tpb – Greg Rucka.
(STERLING PUBLISHING) The TRIAL graphic novel – An now for something completely different.
(TOKYOPOP) GOTH graphic novel – A R18+ one-shot manga. Yes please.
(YEN PRESS) SUNDOME volume 3 graphic novel – More teasing humiliation? How can I resist?
