It seems everybody on CBM is making their own Christmas list and it looks like fun, so why not do one as well?? Last week, I started a Amazon wish list and really the majority the items on the list I made are comic book trades because there aren't a comic book store anywhere near where I live plus Borders, where I bought all my comic trades I have now went under this year so I am now screw! =(
So here's my list. Sorry if its long but I am asking a lot this year. HERE WE GO!
1) PlayStation 3 360 GB Move Bumble
Sad to know I don't own any (Yes ANY) of the next gen console. This saddens me because I was a huge, huge gamer back in the Game Cube, PlayStation 2 days but now I'm missing out. So outta all the three console, a PlayStation 3 is number 1 because its also a Blu-ray player and so many highly acclaim games are for the PS 3 console like the Uncharted games. But Uncharted 3 and Modern Warfare 3 isn't the first games I'm playing for my *hopefully PS3
2) Batman: Arkham Asylum: Game of the Year Edition
Before Arkham City, Batman: Arkham Asylum was hail as the best comic book video game in the world after so many disappointing and God awful games (Aquman: Battle for Atlantis, everybody?) so I must have and play Arkham Asylum before nobbing Arkham City. The PS3 version let you play as The Joker (nergasm!!!!!) for a couple of maps and it 3-D compatible and comes with 2 3-D glasses! [frick] yes!! =)
3) All three Sinetro Corps War trades (hardcover)
As a major Green Lantern fanatic, I am ashamed to say I don't own Sinetro Corps War. Please boo me and embarrass me on the comment box. I love Goeff Johns' Green Lantern, Rebirth is still my all time favorite and not only Ethan Van Sciver did the artwork but Dave mother[frick]ing Gibbons (Watchmen,ya'll) put his pen on this classic crossover event as well!!!! I would love to have all three tales this holiday season, in hardcover of course! =)
4) The Hunger Games (novel)
I am very anticipating for the movie next year. But before I go and see it, I really want to read the books the film is base on, so to get ready, I would love to read the first novel by Suzanne Collins before the release. I hear nothing but great things about the series and for sure I will became a fan after reading Hunger Games. There also a box set of all three Hunger Games books that you can get on Amazon. Here's the link ==> http://www.amazon.com/Hunger-Games-Trilogy-Boxed-Set/dp/0545265355/ref=wl_it_dp_o_npd?ie=UTF8&coliid=I3C2108WWMZBHQ&colid=YF19UOP6EMC6
5) The Walking Dead, Book 1 (hardcover)
I love, LOOOOOVE the AMC series but for some reason, I never get around reading the comics its base on so I don't get all the fan boys and girls whining and complaining how The Walking Dead TV series is like nothing like the comics! Start with Book 1 and see if I like the comics more than show, if that's possible!
6) Batman: The Complete Animated Series box set
Growing up, Batman: TAS was my favorite cartoon show (along with Woody Woodpecker Boonkers, and Darkwing Duck) and to know there is a box set with every episodes, including the New Adventures, and artworks is a most-have for not just fans of Batman or comic books or animated series; but for everyone should have this in their home! Episodes like Heart of Ice, Two-Face, Almost Got 'Em, Over the Edge, Robin's Reckoning, Beware the Grey Ghost, and so much more all in one box set. Put this under my tree, Santa! =)
7) Fourth Doctor Sonic Screwdriver replica
Now I can wish or ask for the sonic screwdriver use by 9th and 10th or the new green light claw sonic screwdriver that the 11th Doctor is using, but what I really want is the classic sonic screwdriver replica use by quite possible the greatest Doctor Who of all time, The Fourth Doctor Who, play brilliantly by Tom Baker between 1974 to 1981. I do have a brown coat, all I need is a large scarf and a floppy hat and a bag of jelly babies and I'll be kicking ass in conventions!!
8) Astonishing X-Men omnibus
A huge X-Men fan and though however I read two or three (can't remember) issue of Astonishing X-Men during Joss Whedon run, they were the BEST X-Men issue I've read and I'm a huge Whedon fan so I absolutely want this omnibus!
9) Batman: Hush (hardcover)
Now I put a lot of Batman graphic novels on my Amazon wish list and picking which one of the graphic novel I absolutely want to read was hard but at the end, Batman: Hush wins because its the graphic novel I want the most. I hear mix things on Hush; some good. Some bad. However, Hush is always on everyone's best Batman graphic novel list, either in the top 10, top 5, top 3, or at number 1. I love Jim Lee artwork and see a few pages from the gn got me hook in getting it. I mean, his Killer Croc looks soooo nasty and sick!! In a good way, I mean! =) And I want to read something from Joeph Loeb before he went to Marvel and start went downhill and never return to his once glory self. This book has almost every Batman villains including the introduction of Hush and a appearance by Superman, Catwoman, Nightwing, and Tim Drake. I really want this book.
10) The Muppet Babies on DVD for the first time!!!!
Oh its true, The Muppet Babies hasn't yet been release on DVD because of bullshit copyright issues reason for the show usage of clips from Star Wars and Indiana Jones and other movies and TV shows! What the [frick]! Every episode of the Animaniacs is out on DVD in 3 volumes and that cartoon show was known for its massive use of pop culture references and parodies, so why the hell Muppet Babies can't have at least a DVD volume just in time for Christmas?? I mean, especially now that The Muppets are back with the new movie, why not give what the fans of the Muppets really want and release every Jim Henson's Muppet Babies episodes on mother[frick]ing DVD!! Oh and Blu-ray but that's asking too much! Please make this happen, Santa! Or Jesus. Or Allah. Or Jim Henson's ghost.
