  Obviously I have misjudged the fandom elite with it's excellent taste. RAPE CRISIS hits the number one spot with a bullet ("If any of the events of this issue have affected you personally then dial 0898 GET-ALIFE-NERD and stop reading so many comics"). Only briefly holding back another comic which is riding a poor innocent all the way to the top - Don't worry, Jim! We'll save you! Help is on the way! Number of titles featuring female leads: 24 Number of Nu-Marvel revamps: 19 Number of titles not featuring super-heroes: 2 And as the ULTIMATE take-over of the ULTIMATE Top Ten continues, we reach the anals (sic) of the NOT QUITE SO STUNNING teens. Normally, a time for ugly sexual changes and perverse thoughts executed in secret... Here we find WOLVERINE: END. Obviously subtlety is creeping back into the comics world, as next month it's DAREDEVIL: BANJO STRING. Number of even-valued issues: 26 Number of odd-valued issues: 24 Number of animal/insect-based titles: 12 The fact that the 100th issue of GRANT MO-FUCKING-RRISON's JLA languishes at 17 in the charts is a sordid and unfortunate story. But seeing as how DC's latest marketing ploy is TARGET THE RETARD, it's unsurprising. Another GRA-SHITEING-NT MORRI-CUNTING-SON success story, NEW-X-MEN has also sunk to 23 from it's sterling position atop the Pops only a short time ago.
When he was still writing it. I sense a mystery! Number of titles written by Brits: 11 Number of titles featuring WOLVERINE: 9 Number of series titles featuring superlatives: 17 Also, only two team-ups this month. Quite a disappointing turnout really. Hardly the hardy days of yore when you had to print gatefold covers just to get all the teams/characters/side-kicks/passers-by who were headlining the latest mini series. One team-up I'd rather not touch by a creator I enjoy and another one I'd definitely not touch by two creators I wouldn't spot in a police line-up if they were wearing HAWK & DOVE costumes. Number of titles I actually bought: 2 Number of titles I was vaguely interested in: 12
