Of these books, I only read Fell and I agree with you that it is a great book and everyone should pick it up. Quality stories from a modern comic legend Warren Ellis, art by the stylized but great Ben Templesmith, and a cover price that should allow everyone to pick it up! I am only up to seven as eight has not yet arrived...waiting is the worst part about ordering your comics from a mailorder discount distributer.

Fables is great, and I'm ashamed to say I don't pick it up as often as I should.

And if I'm not mistaken, I think the new Justice League starts the JLA/JSA crossover.

I try to pick up every B.P.R.D. book and now this year and next they plan to keep us in good supply. I feel that the B.P.R.D. stories have been getting better as the time passes, I just absolutely loved Universal Machine and now this story will expand more on Abe Sapien the charcter shrouded the most in mystery. Couldn't possibly be bad.

Fables is a constant buy for me and will be unless something terrible happens to Willingham. As you say that Fables is the new Sandman and would appeal to it's readers, you are dead on. I was given issues 1-3 for a christmas present a few years back and it was that very reason that they were chosen for me, my love of Sandman and Vertigo comics in general. I was not disappointed and went out and tracked down the other twenty issue. That is what brought me back into comics actually, after being a steady comic reader for years and then getting fed up with comics in the nineties, I left for several years and only came back once this book was put in my hands.

DMZ is not over with (thank god). When it originally launched, it was solicited as a new ongoing title that had no planned end issue number. Here is the DC/Vertigo page that has covers and summaries up to issue #20. I will try to do something with my blog as well. The last blog I posted was a Pirates of Coney Island blog, but I can work on a nother one for Morrison's The Filth, which I just finished reading.
