Above was the view from my window this time last week, but I'm just as glad to be back here with all of you! Jermaine and I have really hit the ground running upon my return and we're hoping to have a lot of great news to announce to all of you guys in the next couple of weeks. I also posted a bunch of the pictures from my trip in the image gallery, so head on over and check them out! And stay tuned to the end of the blog for some kind words from the cast of Scott Pilgrim vs. the World!
Stephen's So-Called Emo Life!
- A-Rod Hitting #600 - I was petrified that I was going to miss it while I was in San Diego and now I can't wait for it to happen! Can't complain about his production this week though. Isn't like like 5 RBIs in 2 games!?
- Thor Trailer - good luck finding it at this point, but man it was AWESOME!
- HBO App - getting caught up on the many episodes of True Blood that I've missed this season. Now if only AMC would put something together so that I could do the same for Mad Men and watch the Walking Dead trailer over and over.
- Jane Austen's Fight Club - probably could have been funnier, but good non the less.
The following titles are scheduled to ship on Wednesday, August 5th excluding some re-orders, trade paperbacks and hardcovers providing that nothing changes by the time the final invoice arrives on Monday:

Amazing Spider-man #639 - I was really impressed with the structure of the first issue and while I'm realizing that the subject might be too little, too late for me to really care, I always game for new Joe Quesada artwork.
