Hey guys, if you watched Episode 5, you'd know that Pete asked everyone to send us pictures of your comic book boxes/containers! So far we have a few submissions and those can be viewed on our Facebook Page

We're in the process of taking pictures of our own collections and throwing it up there as well!
So send your pictures to questions@petesbasement.com and in the subject type "MY BIG STINKING BOX"!

Be sure to check our Facebook page in the video section for Pete's Basement Random Moments!

Moments that define our show in one way or another that are not featured in our "best of" episodes. Moments lost to time! Check it periodically for new moments! Well, not NEW moments, the moments will be old, but newly posted! And yes, eventually we'll run out of moments, but by then we can start from the beginning again!

Take the quiz and then email us at info@petesbasement.com to let us know who you're most like! Are you Pete, Adam, Ramon or Steve?

Okay, here we go;

Model Life: The Journal of A Pint Size Fashion Warrior. Looks pretty cool.
Batman Unseen 3. No, I'm not sure why, either.
Batman: The Widening Gyre. Again, not sure.
Secret Six 15. New story arc, yay!
Haunt 2. It looks better than number 1 on it's face.
Amazing Spider-Man 610. I still haven't learned my lesson.
Ultimate Comics: Spider-Man 4. Why do I like to hurt myself?
Black Widow 1. Looks pretty cool.
Hercules Vs. Spider-Man. Hopefully Pak does the right thing.
Iron Man: Armor Wars: 4 of 4. Artwork is not all that great. But we'll see.

This is what I picked up this week;

1) Detective Comics 858- The last arc was pretty good. Hopefully it stays that way.
2) Ms. Marvel 46- If this doesn't end the arc, then I'm going to pull my all my hair out. ALL my hair if you know what I mean!
3) Fantastic Four 572- Couldn't wait and read it on the train ride home! Awesomeness!
4) Superman Secret Origin- 2- 1st was good. Hopefully the 2nd is.
5) Necrosha- Huh? It's a one shot. One of those several different artists and writers take turns during the issue to tell the story. I generally hate that, but hey.

What I, Steve, plan on picking up this week so that I might read it;

1) Batgirl 3. It's okay. Not great, but okay.
2) Blackest Night: Batman 3. Should be good. Should be. In the sense that comics should be free.
3) Detective Comics Annual 11. I'm just surprised that for all the many decades that his title has been around they
are only up to Annual 11.
4) Green Lantern Corps 41. Eh.
5) Punisher Max 75. Let's see where it goes.
6) Secret Six 14. Amazons verses the Devil. I had a dream like that once.

What I picked up this week;

Batman Unseen 1 of 5- Looked promising. Out of continuity. Should be good.
Justice League: Cry For Justice: Artwork continues to look awesome.
Haunt- I like McFarlane, I like Kirkman. Let's hope it's good.
Ultimate Spider-Man 3- Not sure why I bought it. It better be good.
Daredevil 501- Woo!
Amazing Spider-Man 608- Even the mere mention of Ben Reilly makes Pete's skin crawl. If you listen reeeeal carefully you can hear it crawling right now.
X-Babies- Why the hell not.
Secret Warriors- The List- 1- Aaah, might as well.

Steve here, this is what I picked up this week;

Amazing Spider-Man 607 (Not sure why, most likely because of the cover and my hope that the
story will get better. Hey, I hoped that FF would get better and it did!)
Blackest Night Titans 2 of 3
Gotham City Sirens 4
Green Lantern 46
Hercules: The Knives of Kush 3 of 5
Spin Angels 2
X-Factor 49
X-Force 19

I noticed Thor was out, but the story seems kind of boring to me.

There is no better way to get out of a story line than to have someone go back in time or to have a clone come out of nowhere.

Merry Christmas!
