Opening the door to a wider world of expression
It just won’t stop raining here, and I’m tired and irritable and can’t think of anything clever to say, so let’s just do this. From DC: HARLEY QUINN: HARLEY LOVES JOKER #1 – Paul Dini returns to the character he co-created to deliver the incredible two-issue wrap-up of the “Harley Loves Joker” flashback tale that…
It’s something of a probationary week, with a few titles that I’m giving a chance to wow me before I decide whether to drop them entirely, add them to my pull list, or start trade-waiting after the first arc concludes. Let’s take a look: From DC: ETERNITY GIRL #2 – Far beyond the farthest any…
Happy Free Comic Book Day! Normally I hate standing in line…and today wasn’t any different, but I was pleased that the line I had to stand in just to get into the comic shop was so long. (Though I did still hate standing in it.) I didn’t grab any freebies (for myself), but here’s what…
A bit of a delay this week as I had to take some time out to catch a screening of an obscure little movie you probably haven’t heard about. But I’m here now, so let’s see what I bought. From DC: BATMAN BEYOND #19 – “The Long Payback” finale! When Batman was at the mercy…
There’s no mystery as to what I’ll be talking about tomorrow, but have a look-see at everything I bought this week anyway: From DC: ACTION COMICS #1000 – Celebrate 1000 issues of Action Comics with an all-star lineup of top talent as they pay tribute to the comic that started it all! From today’s explosive…
This week features some catch-up purchases and impulse buys. Let’s take a look at what’s in the Showcase, shall we? From DC: ACTION COMICS: 80 YEARS OF SUPERMAN THE DELUXE EDITION – Join us for the 80th anniversary celebration of the most important comic book in American history: ACTION COMICS #1, featuring the first appearance…
Looks like it would have been a relatively light week last week if I had picked up any comics. Also, when pulling up the info on the comics I saw that I failed to remember to pick up The Teriffics #2 this week. But let’s take a look at what I did pick up, shall…
Upon my arrival at the comic shop today I was greeted with a sign informing me that their computer system was down. I didn’t check to see if the sign was written in lamb’s blood, but I’m going to guess that it wasn’t. Of course, having been raised a Lutheran, I initially likened it less…
It’s a week for noticing things that I missed last week, like Eternity Girl – which I’m mostly just checking out to see if I’ll be interested in picking up in the eventual trades – and Barbarella, which I’ve since added to my pull list, and things from weeks long-past, which I only noticed I’d…
It’s a St. Patrick’s Day Showcase, free of any Irish affectations or appropriations. And free of a lot of options for me to choose from, for that matter. One of the drawbacks of picking up comics on Saturday is that there won’t be a lot of impulsive or incidental purchases, as the shelves are pretty…
