Hello and welcome to our weekly wrap-up! “But it’s Tuesday!” you say? Yes, but everyone knows that the week doesn’t officially start until tomorrow: New Comics Day!

Hello!  I hope you had a fun and safe Fourth of July.  I ended up nerding out this weekend and watching the fireworks above Stormwind city instead of actually going out and doing anything.  I felt pretty pathetic doing so, but my reasons for staying in alst weekend were noble at least; college homework!  Anyway, as a result of the holiday I believe that comics are not shipping until Thursday of this week.  So don’t be silly like me and go in on Wednesday only to be let down!

ComicNerd is just exploding in popularity lately.  I cannot believe how many readers are passing through this site, with new comments every day by all sorts of new readers.  None of this would be possible without the hard work of all of the writers on staff here at ComicNerd.  Please do what you can to make their time worthwhile and comment on their posts and tell your friends about this site!

In that same vein, I have another new addition to the writing team here at ComicNerd.  I am proud to announce that Clayton520 has joined our ranks as an official ComicNerd writer!  Clayton brings a deep and rich understanding of the Marvel Universe, specifically the Avengers mythos, as well as a comprehensive understanding of the Secret Invasion event going on right now

Let’s hear more about ComicNerd’s newest writing staff member:

After a failed attempt of arguing the socialistic tendencies of Captain America, I have accepted my fate as a writer, critic, and purveyor of all things weird.

I began writing film reviews in my mid teens and have been doing it ever since. I am a film snob of the highest order but I particularly enjoy cult films (Blade Runner Eraserhead, ect…). Several of my short stories have been published and I am hoping to complete a longer work of fiction sometime before I am 30.

Comics came into my life only a few years ago when I picked up a copy of Civil War and have been hooked ever since. Marvel is the name of the game as far as I am concerned, but I am always willing to pick up a good indie issue or two.

Currently, I am working towards my masters in English. However, most of my time and energy goes into my fiction, a book on the most overrated films in history and my comic production company Ruin Comics, which I confounded with Greg Padilla.

You can read more about my work and reach me  at either my website or blog.

We’re looking for more writers! If you or anyone you know might be interested in writing for ComicNerd - hit me up!

Ok, let’s get started with what’s up…

Comics that caught my eye!

I get another light week (thank the comic gods), not too much coming down the pipeline that interests me personally, but here are all of the things going in my buy pile:

We get more of Morrison’s Batman R.I.P. mess with Detective Comics #846. Marvel again carries the most books of interest (for me) with: Guardians of the Galaxy #3, Nova #15, Invincible Iron Man #3, and Secret Invasion #4.

What about you? Anything below look interesting to you?  Let me know in the comments section, I am too biased!
