I thought that the last "comics this week" thread got quite clogged up with chat about TPBs, so when I started the latest comic thread, I just sorta dropped it altogether.
However I kinda liked it, and thinking again, I'd rather still mention them (and given that there are generally 2 or 3 each week they're an important part of the DCU.
I'll just post all the trade news on this thread.
So, with effect from 16/7/8 - this weeks trades;
