Deleting all the games off of my iPad has helped with the time. Although I doubt that's your problem. Maybe you could read them to your little one?

Locke & Key Vol 4: Keys to the Kingdom The first couple of issues made me think this story had run its course. Then I kept reading. Holy crap!

The Fix Vol 1- THANKS ALOT for the recommendation guys!!! Really enjoyed this read, but man, is Roy a DICK HAHA, looking forward to a time when I get to the 2nd trade!!
I've actually been reading a novel, and getting caught up on the 96% full DVR of my comic shows so we can cancel tv/cable, and well, starting a new show 'Forged in Fire'. That's been really cool for me!!

Jupiter's Legacy Vol 1 -just loved this! I've grown into such a Frank Quitely fan over the years, and him on Millar's writing-which I find to be very intriguing as he (well, again) deconstructs the golden age hero under the crushing weight of real world cynicism and post-modern failures. I have both volumes of the prequel Jupiter's Circle, that I'll get to in time. East of West vol 1 - I won't lie, I remember starting to read this in serial form years ago, and I'll say the same thing then-this is a beginning that does not hold you into coming back. It wasn't until issue 6 where I thought there was something there to continue reading. And this is Hickman!!! Not a big fan still of volume 1, but I'll see where things go from here...since I have the next 5 volumes. But in Hickman I do trust. Superwoman 9-crap, I thought I was gonna drop this. Not a bad issue, I just don't see anything here that really interests me. Superman 23-still enjoying this book a lot! Action 979-this one too! I love a character getting a fix/reset to what he's supposed to be!! Digging this team coming together!! WW 22- pooh, Rucka is getting near to being done

Collected is the best way to read this. I switched to monthlies when I switched to digital and it seems to take forever for something to happen. I think the quality dropped a little while he was doing Secret Wars. Seems to be picking back up now. Coincidence?
