Robocop coming to Dynamite
Alex Murphy and a crime-riddled Detroit are making their way back to comics, as Robocop will return later this year in new projects from Dynamite Entertainment.

Star Trek news from John Byrne
In his forum Me. Byrne posted the following about a new 3 issues mimi series Star Trek: ROMULANS - SCHISM :
- This week I started this, the third and "final" chapter of my Romulans stuff for IDW. This tells the tale of how the Romulans and the Klingons stopped being "pals" some time before the first TREK movie.
Mr. Byrne also posted that for the Romulans omnibus he is going to do an adaptation of the TOS eppisode "Balance of terror". Since I already have some of the Romulans issues and planning on getting this new mini series too, I'm not going to buy the omnibus.
Star Trek news from Chris Ryall
On his blog Mr. Ryall posted that a new Countdown spin off series will start in August.
Dark Horse in August 09

There is also another Star Wars: The clone wars issue but I think that I'll stop at issue 6 and concentrate on finding the old Star Wars books in bargain bins. My reading list is big enough as it is. :)

More Angel news from IDW
From Chris Ryall's blog:
- The ANGEL: AFTER THE FALL team of writer Brian Lynch and artist Franco Urru returns to the title with ANGEL 23. This special issue focuses on Gunn and Illyria, which then leads into the coming ANGEL: ONLY HUMAN miniseries.
Angel news from John Byrne
There is an Angel / Angelus one-shot lined up for Halloween this year. Lets hope that it will be in full color and not V&W as the Angel: Blood * Trenches mini series.

- Star Trek archives vol.5: Best of Kirk

Eureka news from Boom! studio
In the recent ECCC it was announced that BOOM! Studios will also be producing a book based on the Sci Fi show “Eureka.” The book, “Eureka 1.5,” will focus on stories that occur between the first and second seasons. The writing of the book will be done by Jonathan Davis.
I'm confused here. I thought that the current Eureka comics are the 1.5 season. Maybe they are talking about a collection of these comic issues.

In the last couple of months Chris Ryall kept hinting about a new Star Trek series that would start in July.

May solicitations
Since last writing here I dropped off my reading list most of the Star Wars series and the Marvel Illustrated series and added Buffy. Star Wars because they are covering too many eras while I'm only interested in the movies characters. Marvel Illustrated due to economics. The price for a single issue was upped to $4 which make the trades paperbacks cheaper. I added Buffy although I disliked the series because the comics are fun and interesting. I needed to trim my reading list because with all the new titles coming up, some of which are listed bellow it was getting out of hand.
