MONDAY TELEMETRY For May 16th, 2011
Welcome to another installment of Monday Telemetry, a weekly blog from The Launchpad that covers some of the more interesting releases or events that are coming to the store this week.
A lot of cool stuff this week! Read on! [See the full list of new titles here!]
ALPHA FLIGHT #0 POINT ONE
Because YOU demanded it: Exploding out of FEAR ITSELF with an all-new series is the ORIGINAL Alpha Flight by the superstar creative team of writers Greg Pak & Fred Van Lente and artist Dale Eaglesham --- with covers by the incomparable Phil Jimenez! Get in on the ground floor of this highly anticipated maxi-series with this standalone adventure by artist X: Who are Guardian, Vindicator, Sasquatch, Snowbird, Shaman, Northstar, Aurora, and Marrina? How did they become their nation's most beloved heroes? And are they strong enough to withstand their greatest challenge yet? DO YOU FEAR...YOUR COUNTRY TURNING ON YOU?
BOOSTER GOLD #44 (FLASHPOINT)
Dan Jurgens returns to BOOSTER GOLD just in time for this FLASHPOINT prelude. Booster Gold returns to Rip Hunter's lab after the events of TIME MASTERS and finds that this world isn't the same one he left behind.
DRUMS #1 (OF 4)
"LET THE BATÁA SPEAK"
In our world there exists an ancient religion with many names and many disguises: Candomble, Palo Mayombe, Santeria... Voodoo. FBI agent Martin Irons is sent to investigate the sudden deaths of an entire gathering of followers at a ceremony, an assignment horrible enough before one of the mangled corpses rises and leads him on a sinister path. A new horror story with possesions, santeros, zombies... all set to the thunderous boom of drums!
X-MEN GIANT-SIZE #1
"FROM FIRST TO LAST"
Think you know everything there is to know about the original X-Men? Think again! Something happened to Cyclops, Marvel Girl, Beast, Angel, Iceman and Professor X years ago, a secret so horrible that it has been locked away in the dark corner of Cyclops' mind until today. What crisis strikes in the present that calls upon memories of the past? Witness the astonishing debut of the Evolutionaries! Taking the lead for a few issues is famed X-Men writer CHRIS YOST (X-FORCE) and with all this danger, he's lucky to have regular X-MEN artist PACO MEDINA and DALIBOR TALAJIC (PUNISHER) along for the ride.

Welcome to another installment of Monday Telemetry, a weekly blog from The Launchpad that covers some of the more interesting releases or events that are coming to the store this week.
A lot of cool stuff this week! Read on! [See the full list of new titles here!]
ITEM! Flashpoint kicks off this week, which means we're in the midst of our first Flashpoint package which includes Flashpoint #1, Flash #10 - 12, and Booster Gold #44 all for $11.99! Stay tuned for our special weekly package deals that make the massive amounts of Flashpoint titles coming our way totally affordable (Oh, and there'll be pins and a flash ring in the offering)!
ITEM! Thanks to everyone who came down for FCBD! It was another great one!
FLASHPOINT #1
Not a dream, not an imaginary story, not an elseworld. This is Flash Fact: When Barry Allen wakes at his desk, he discovers the world has changed. Family is alive, loved ones are strangers, and close friends are different, gone or worse. It's a world on the brink of a cataclysmic war - but where are Earth's Greatest Heroes to stop it? It's a place where America's last hope is Cyborg, who hopes to gather the forces of The Outsider, The Secret 7, S!H!A!Z!A!M!, Citizen Cold and other new and familiar-yet-altered faces! It's a world that could be running out of time, if The Flash can't find the villain who altered the time line!
Welcome to FLASHPOINT!
MEGA MAN #1
"Let the Games Begin!" Part One. The future looks bright when brilliant and benevolent Dr. Light unveils his latest creations: the Robot Masters! But when the nefarious Dr. Wily steals them for his own sinister purposes, there is no one left to stop him. No one - except Mega Man! Don't miss the first issue of this brand new ongoing series based on Capcom's long-running and best-selling video game sensation! Available with a regular cover by Patrick "Spaz" Spaziante or a sketch cover by Chad Thomas.
TIME LINCOLN JACK TO THE FUTURE ONE SHOT
Time Lincoln's Traveler's Team faces their greatest challenge yet when they unravel a plot by Void Stalin and his Chrono-Communists to assassinate the President of the United States in November 1965 with a magic bullet! But the images in the Void have already ordained the assassination! Why would Void Stalin intervene? The answer comes when the travelers are contacted by a new mysterious ally, one who travels through time, but not the Void. A man known only as...J-FTL-K.
