Four Color Commentary - Books Shipped 8-30-06

Guess what? NO COMMENTARY FOR YOU! That’s right, for the second week in a row I am going to be the commentary Nazi. I could blame many things for being over two weeks behind on my comics reading however this time I will boil it down to two words: Arrested Development. Now by this I do not mean my own lack of maturity but rather the superlative sitcom that has now been cancelled. COME ON!

Oh, here is what I bought this week:
