Supermen!: The First Wave Of Comic Book Heroes 1939-41 by Greg Sadowski This was a fun anthology that perfectly captures the experience of stumbling across a random stack of old comics in someone’s attic. The stories collected are selected from the early days of the comics industry, and it made me appreciate how [...] This is what I’m thinking of getting: DC Comics Greek Street #1 – My husband Mr. Tangognat likes Peter Milligan, so I’m going to get this first issue for him. Tokyopop Maid Sama #2 – Thought the first volume was funny enough, I thought I’d check out the second. Tsubasa: Those with Wings #2 [...] It is a bit of a slog wrapping up my coverage of the last couple issues of the second series of Amethyst, because such unpleasant things happen to her. The cover of this issue shows new characters Flaw and The Child being mean to Amethyst. Flaw is holding Amethyst over his head, about [...] Here’s what I’m thinking of gettting: Viz Fullmetal Alchemist #19 High School Debut #10 Honey Hunt #2 – Soooooooo looking forward to a new Aihara title. Vagabond Vizbig #4 Fruits Basket #23 – I am somewhat relieved that this series will be over.

Amethyst co-creators Gary Cohn and Dan Mishkin graciously agreed to answer [...] “Lex Luthor Bailout” with Jon Hamm – watch more funny videos I tend to keep my “to read” manga and graphic novel pile scattered around on different bookshelves, but I was curious to see how much reading I have to go through, so I stacked it up. The pile reaches my upper hip. I do not know why I haven’t read OMAC yet. I think [...] This is by far one of my least favorite issues of Amethyst. I fortunately was able to remain ignorant of this issue for many years, because I skipped it when I was originally collecting the series and didn’t read it until many years later when I got a complete run of the series from [...] Crisis on Infinite Earths lives on in the mind of my inner 10 year old girl as one of my most traumatic comic book memories, because the mini-series managed to kill Supergirl and blind Amethyst. Since those were the only comic books I was following at the time, Crisis really bummed me out. I’m not [...] |
