==========================================

Mister Miracle 5, 6, & 7 - This whole series has been a blast to read.  There's the occasional 70's lingo like "You cats" but nothing like the Teen Titans from the '60's.  But man - seven issues and we've already met several of the classic new gods - Granny Goodness being the most prominent.  Big Barda appears starting in issue 3.  Love seeing how this all came together in the beginning - as written and drawn by the great Jack Kirby!

Nope.  I want to push through these and get caught up on "The Plan".  Current comics read a lot faster so I'm confident I can bang them out later.

Stumptown TPB Vol. 1 & Vol. 2 - Great great private eye / crime books.  Greg Rucka rarely dissapoints and he does another great job with Stumptown.  Gonna be sad when I finish this off.

Mister Miracle (1971-1978)   #8 - Man these old Kirby comics are great.  Only Kirby can make a villain called "The Lump"  cool.

Taking my time this week as I can't stop thinking about a certain movie I saw!
 Cheesy

Amazing Spider-Man #20 - Another good issue to this enjoyable, old school arc. Loving Spidey again!!
Fantastic Four #9 - Last issue of the arc. It wasn't too bad. Wish the entire arc was good, but maybe next one?
Doctor Strange #13 - 2nd Galactus story this week. Honestly, not quite as fun as the FF one  Shocked
Spider-Man: Life Story #1 - So I dig the concept of this mini. It is exploring Spider-Man's life by the decade and aging him in real time. We start in the 60's first. 1966 and Peter is a Freshman in college and has been Spidey for a couple years now. Semi-Spoilers ahead ... We get a short Flash Thompson vs Peter resolution with a Vietnam backdrop for Flash and Captain America . Next issue, I think is set in 1977, Peter will be 10 years older. Can't wait!!

Wildstorm #22 -
Here they are The Authority!!! (Sure hope they are next. Hope this sold well enough)
LoSH (Baxter series) #16 - Now that DC has this series up, I can continue my reading of it and fill in the issues I am missing. So great!!!

Star Trek Waypoint Special 2019 - Not a must read but one or two decent stories.
Life and Death of Toyo Harada #2 - Toyo getting ready to snap it off inside of someone  Cheesy
A Walk Through Hell #9 - Okay, so this was not what ... ohhhhh, yeah it is? Wait ... what? Easily one of my top 10 comics right now!!!

==========================================

Did pretty good this week considering what all I had on the list.

Mister Miracle (1971-1978)   #9-12 - more fun with MM and the furies.  Kirby loves drawing Big Barda in a bikini.   Cheesy

Stumptown Vol. 3 - Another decent mystery though the weakest of the three I’ve read.  The next trade is the last one and looks to wrap up things started at the beginning.
