Antarctic Press has only three Fred Perry items this month (one not relevant here). Burnout? Incidentally, not satisfied with turning Obama into a zombie-killer and a furry, this month they have the Governator. And non-Finder fans should scroll down to Lightspeed Press.

BOOM! STUDIOS (http://www.boom-studios.net/)
JAN100834 The Muppet Show volume 2: On the Road hc, 6"x9", 112pg, color $24.99
JAN100835 The Muppet Show volume 2: On the Road sc, 6"x9", 112pg, color $9.99
by Roger Langridge w/Shelli Paroline
'Collecting issues #0-3 of the acclaimed ongoing The Muppet Show series by Roger Langridge.' Since there was no #0 of On the Road, and this is their *third* Muppet series, I presume Boom! is in the midst of converting to a zero-based numbering system and hasn't worked the bugs out yet. Or they want you to think you need to buy On the Road #4 (also out this month) as well. Or something else equally nefarious. Still, it is by Roger Langridge, unless they're lying about that too.

JAN100837 The Muppet Show [On the Road] #4 32pg, color $2.99
by Roger Langridge
'With the theatre rebuilt, the Muppets are ready to start the show, and what better way to kick off the relaunch than with some high-profile guest stars? With Bunsen and Beaker's new machine, any historical or even fictional character can be conjured up to star on the show -- and their first guest is a doozy!' Tamerlane!

JAN100831 The Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck v. 2 hc, 112pg, color $24.99
by Don Rosa
The first hardcover edition, possibly, and certainly the first collection chopped into two pieces to make more money.

Also Cars #4, Disney's Hero Squad #3, Donald Duck and Friends #352, Muppet King Arthur #4, Toy Story volume 1: The Return of Buzz Lightyear (hc or sc, collecting TS 1-4), Toy Story #4, Uncle Scrooge #389, Wall-E volume 1: Recharge (hc or sc, collecting W-E 1-4), Wall-E #4, Walt Disney's Comics & Stories #705, and Wizards of Mickey #3.

LIGHTSPEED PRESS (http://www.lightspeedpress.com/)
JAN101049 Finder: Sin Eater 10th-Anniversary Edition hc, 6"x9", 384pg, b&w $29.95
by Carla Speed McNeil
'Jaeger is a Finder, which is an aboriginal detective. Jaeger is also a sin-eater, which is a ritual scapegoat. Jaeger returns to an old girlfriend only to find that her husband isn't out of the picture and now appears to be dangerously crazy -- but hasn't done anything to hurt her. But the husband isn't just some twerp; he's Jaeger's former commanding officer. This complex story of conflicting loyalties sets the stage for the rest of Jaeger's life as told in the ongoing series, Finder. Jump on at the beginning with this chunky manga-sized volume collecting two previous trades into one volume.' This and volume two below are 'offered again', and I ordinarily don't mention O/As, but this is one of the best comics of all time and if you haven't read it you need to know about it.

JAN101050 Finder: Sin Eater Part Two sc, 7"x10", 184pg, b&w $19.95
by Carla Speed McNeil
'Jaeger can get into anything -- a holy city, a high-security prison, his best friend's wife's bed, an online world-creator's worst nightmares. What he should do once he's in is his problem? [Wha?] Mess around. This innovative science fiction series and its creator, Carla Speed McNeil, have been nominated for seven Eisners and the Russ Manning Award, won two Ignatz Awards and one Friends of Lulu Award.'

MIRAGE STUDIOS (http://www.ninjaturtles.com/)
JAN101051 Tales of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles #68 32pg, b&w $3.25
by Jake Black and Jim Lawson
'When April's sister Robyn contracts a deadly new form of cancer, the Turtles must take a fantastic voyage to save her from this new alien threat.'

PAGE 276
NBM (http://www.nbmpublishing.com/)
JAN101063 Dungeon: Twilight Volume 3: the New Centurions sc, 6"x9", 96pg, color $12.99
by Lewis Trondheim, Joann Sfar, and Kerascoet
'Terra Amata has exploded and the Dark Fortress of the Grand Khan needs to master the nitro tech. To that end, they hire Marvin the Red even as others plot malevolently. Then, Marvin the dragon and Marvin the Red are trapped on a quickly revolving piece of the exploded planet, and must constantly run or fall off into oblivion!' Recommended, like vols. 1-2 (O/A this month) and all others in the Dungeon series.

It's wonderful that every other free comic book will pale in comparison to our powerful and supernatural print-barge for both the enlightened and perplexed masses. Very nice blog, thanks for such update.

A correction to your entry about the MUPPET SHOW book -- It's called THE MUPPET SHOW, not THE MUPPET SHOW (ON THE ROAD). It's an ongoing series, not a mini-series. The ON THE ROAD storyline was only in issues 1 - 3, and is collected in the ON THE ROAD trade paperback (which you list), along with issue #0, which I presume is included for the sake of completion. (That way, no issues of THE MUPPET SHOW are left uncollected.) But neither issue #0 nor the newest entry, #4, have anything to do with the ON THE ROAD storyline.

The 'zero' issue is not some anomaly or bizarre shift of numbering system, but is, in fact, a bit more common these days. Not all publishers use it, nor do those who do use it in all situations, but it is used by many publishers, including the major publishers (DC and Marvel), especially if they want to attract attention to a specific title.
