I bought!!!!
Aquaman 44-45
I have been kinda digging this title again. Started off fine, going through a good idea but it has gotten even better lately. Jeff, are you still on this? I forget
I bought!!!!
The Green Lantern 3-5
I want to know how you feel about this after you read these two issues. I could understand you going either way, just curious to know if you still enjoy what he is doing here and if so is it because of the zaniness, the plot, the dialog (no, it can't be that
) or the way he is treating Hal. Of course it could be all of the above, or any combination, I'm just curious.
I bought!!!!
Justice League 15-19
Ahhh, my current nemesis.
I abhor an issue, swear I am off this title and then I am reading through the pages the very next issue.
I bought!!!!
Shazam 2-3
I know you liked issue #1 and I am so glad you did. This has to be taking the place of your Superman, yeah? I mean this is so bright and shiny. Glad you have this.
Detective Comics 994-999 - Not bad.
Yep. I felt the same way. I wish I could have got you in time. I know you saved money as they were on sale, and it started off being a really cool arc, but it just ended ... I don't know. And the fact that it (seemingly) has nothing to do with the big 1K issue kinda sucks
Justice League Dark 9 - I don't really care about this story and yet...I can't look away. It has to be the characters. Most of them are pretty awesome and fun to read. I have this "feeling" the payoff is going to be big.
I hope so, because I feel the same
The Flash 66 - Oh yeah. This is back on the reading list. Great start for this arc. Left me wanting more more more!
Yeah, I even snatched up issue 46 through ... something from my boy to back read as I read current issues.
And hey, that Kolins art didn't hurt. I don't know why, I am not really of fan of his art on any other property ... well ... he was pretty darn good on that Avengers thing ... but man, put him on Flash and it just screams Must Read for me. I wont even mention that I still have yet to read his and Johns Flash run
I KNOW!!!!
One of many great runs I have to read.
I really think I am just going to have to swear off all new titles until I catch up on some of these great runs I have to read or reread. But how can I stop? I need Dave to move ... like he said he was gonna.
(Just kidding man, don't do that shit!)
I got through a few yesterday, waiting on the wife to return from DC -
Calamity Kate #1
Ronin Island #1 - Two new issues that were pushed on me, again, as soon as I walked in the door. Calamity Kate (Dark Horse) was fine, it shows promise for a mini, but it didn't grab me as much as it did Tom I guess. Ronin Island (Boom) was crazy cool but the art was not what I want. Bottom line, this week I walked away without having to add another title, so TAKE THAT!!! Leave me alone for a few weeks, damn it!
Flash #66 - A cool start to a cool Flash villain. And by cool I mean he is cool because he is not cool
Like Jeff, I think I am
back on ... on. Williamson's writing never grabbed me before, so I was never really "on" in the first place, so I am just on ... for now.
Of course hopefully having a Flash that isn't hidden behind 6,839 bolts of freaking lightning every panel will help me stay on board.
Fantastic Four #4 - Ugh, such dreck! Just horrible. Gonna try and push through to be caught up, but ... why?
GoTG #2 - This title is going to be cool just based on the amount of characters
Invaders #2 - OH MY GOD! I want Butch Guice on more stuff. I miss his stuff. He blows it away here!
Amazing Spider-Man #17 - First off I guess I had the wrong numbers last week. I posted I read Amazing 17 and 17HU, but that must have been issues 16 and 16HU ... ooops. That said ... man I am having fun with this arc. So late 70's, so cool and crazy
Captain Marvel #1
Uncanny X-Men #164 - These two issues (of the three, sent to me for being a Patreon of Comic Book Club ... three crazy guys and a podcast), celebrate early issues, and one not too early issue, of Captain Marvel. Celebrating the release of the new movie. All issues are under the True Believer Banner, which is a cool way to get new readers as each issue is only a buck, or less if you go through DCBS
The Cap #1 is the Kelly Sue Deconnick issue that the movie is based on, The Uncanny issue is the first appearance of Binary (and I love how they try and hide it in the comic, showing just pieces of her until her big reveal, panels later ... even though she is highlighted on the freakin' cover!!!
These two were, well, ya know, cool little reads. Well, I say little but you guys know Claremont, not light reading as he has dialog or captions everywhere
They also sent me the True Believers copy of Avengers #89, the start of the Kree/Skrull War which I will be reading today
