Vinnie's Weekly Haul: September 12, 2014

This is one of the lightest weeks for me in a long time. Just a few comics, one toy, and a blu-ray. 

Oh, and Destiny. I bought Destiny. I played the hell outta Desitny. I really like Destiny.

Here's a list of the comics I bought. Nothing digital this week.

• Amazing Spider-Man #6
• Batman Eternal #23
• Batman Future's End #1
• Captain Marvel #7
• Death of Wolverine #2
• Hawkeye #20
• Inhuman #5
• Magneto #9
• Ms. Marvel #8
• Superman Unchained #8

If you listen to my podcast, you'll know I talked about picking up Edge of the Spider-Verse #1. I decided to skip it this week when I learned that it isn't the actual mini-series, but a series of one-shots focusing on the different Spider-Men featured in the main storyline. Not that I have anything against David Hine's writing, but I really love Christos Gage's Spider-Man work and was expecting to get more of that here. But I will be picking up Spider-Verse once it ships in November.

As you can see, I also picked up Captain America: The Winter Soldier on blu-ray. There isn't much I can say about this movie that hasn't already been said elsewhere, but if you somehow managed to miss this release AND are reading this blog, it's one of the best movies to come out of Marvel Studios. I don't want to rank them in order of which is the greatest, but it absolutely hangs with the likes of The Avengers and Guardians of the Galaxy.

I also decided to pick up another Funko ReAction Figure. If it isn't obvious, these toys looks terrible but I love them anyway. Something about Kyle Reese's terrible trench coat just called out to me. I also just noticed the "Fully Poseable" tag on the front of the package. Seeing that a straight stick might have more articulation than this toy, that really tickled my pickle.

Well that's it for this week. I'll be back Monday with Mixel Madness!!: The Spikels and will have my review of the Lego Mos Eisley Cantina up on Wednesday. I guarantee it (guarantee not guaranteed).

Vinnie's Weekly Haul: August 22, 2014

This was a pretty small week for me. My comics stack was pretty light and I didn't spend an obscene amount of money on Lego. I did find a couple rad ReAction figures though, so not all was lost.

Here's my weekly pull list. I'm super excited about Grant Morrison's Multiversity, and with this week's Supergirl, DC's Superman: Doomed storyline is beginning to wrap up. I'm also interested in seeing how All-New Ghost Rider will fare now that Tradd Moore is off the title. I also finished off my Fatale and Locke & Key runs thanks to a couple Comixology sales.

• All-New Ghost Rider #6
• Batman and Robin #34
• Batman Eternal #20
• Daredevil #7
• Elektra #5
• The Fade Out #1 (Digital)
• Magneto #8
• Ms. Marvel #7
• Multiversity #1
• New Avengers #23
• Secret Avengers #7
• Storm #2
• Supergirl #34
• Unwritten: Apocalypse #8

I've been picking up these ReAction Figures lately. It's funny, I have no intention of buying all of them or even opening the packages. In all honesty, these kinda look godawful, but I still love them. It's the combo on the packaging, info card, and the old-school look of the figures that I really find appealing.

Just look at how awesome that looks.

On a side note, I need to figure out a way to soften the lighting around my house. I guess it's to Google I go.
