November 2009: Citizen Rex #5Written by Mario, drawn by Gilbert Hernandez. I really liked this SF story about a robot revolt, I think? I'd have to read it again to refresh my memory of the story but I remember enjoying the general ambience of the futuristic city and its weird characters, and of course Gilbert's art. Ooh, there's one I bought. I think I was buying a bunch of comics at this point but there doesn't seem to be a lot of overlap. (Also while I didn't get it when it came out I loved, loved, loved Greek Street in an "I can't imagine this appealing to anybody else in the WORLD" kinda way.) There were only 2 of us at my LCS getting Greek Street. Probably explains why it didn't last very long. I adored the mixture of ancient mythology interacting in modern times. One of those concepts which was ahead of it's time and should have caught more attention of readers. Imagine if only Guy Ritchie were to do a Greek Street movie!

Comics on sale for November 2010Ya know, for someone who always claims I'd mostly stopped buying comics by this point, I've apparently got some issues of denial going on. Really, MOST of this is Batman, and both Batman Inc and The Return of Bruce Wayne taught me that I seriously needed to back off on that commitment too. After this, I stick with the core titles out of a sense of needing to keep the runs going, but I stop buying into the extras. Authority #28 Batman #704 Batman and Robin #16 Batman and Robin #17 Batman Inc. #1 Batman: The Return of Bruce Wayne #6 Batwoman #0 Detective Comics #871 House of Mystery #31 Justice League: Generation Lost #14 Justice League: Generation Lost #15 Red Hood: The Lost Days #6 Superman #705 Usagi Yojimbo #133

I bought the first issue of Greek Street and was interested enough that I bought the first trade collection when it came out - and which, typically, I haven't yet got round to reading.
November 2010, the only thing I see on Mike's site at a glance is the Strange Tales issue with the Jaime Hernandez cover.

I wasn't buying comics at this point (I bought no new comics between late 2007 and early 2012). I did pick up some stuff from this month when I got back in in 2012, but didn't keep much of it, purging it when I downsized collection size a couple of times since then.
What I do still own form this month's releases (as singles not in trade)
Conan the Cimmerian #25 Conan: the Frazetta Covers #6 DCU Legacies #7 Madame Xanadu #29 Nightmaster: Monsters of Rock #1 (Wrightson cover) Zatanna #7
plus a few series in trade (Unwritten, Sweet Tooth, etc.)

By 2011, I was almost entirely done with modern comics, but I still stuck it out with a few remaining titles. Once DC's nu52 happened later in the year, I was done with the Big Two entirely.
Batman #706 Detective Comics #873 House of Mystery #33 (purchased just this year) Justice League Generation Lost #17 Justice League Generation Lost #18 Superman #707 (currently in my "to-get-rid-of" long boxes in the basement) Wonder Woman #606 (currently in my "to-get-rid-of" long boxes in the basement)
