Have been reading the library books I picked up this week.
Ditko's Shorts - Finished reading this yesterday. Some really nice shorts in there mixed some very forgettable ones.
Athena Voltaire - Dropped halfway through the first arc. Very uninteresting lead character and doesn't seem to bring anything new to the genre.
Sex Criminals - The three time-frame narrative isn't really working for me.It was great as an introduction in the first issue, but it completely slows the books down. I don't know if I will even finish reading this volume.

What kind of bags and boards does everyone use? Right now I'm using Ultra or BCW bags and BCW or SHS boards. I'm thinking really hard on switching to Mylites+ and half boards, that way I have peace of mind. I will also slowly switch all my collection over to Mylites+.

Wish happy birthday to Messi? Please, after Messi gave a thumbs up to my checking out Jem and
making it so I now have a new book to follow? Of course. Happy birthday, Messi!
Well, huh. Got Marvel Unlimited month trial up and running. Decided I'm going to use it to check out stuff that I'm interested enough in reading but not to buy. So I just read through the House of M event for the first time. And it was... okay. Not offensive, just kind of flat. Definitely agree with the whole Layla is just a deus ex machina inserted to advance the story critique I know I've heard in the past.
Also, even in that splash at the end there were a number of characters who totally managed to just plain re-power, though I don't know who did what in order to do so.
Oh, and what was the whole "that energy had to go somewhere" tease from the end leading up to?
Edit: Man, adding and removing stuff from a reading list is dirt slow, at least on browser. Any trick to add whole events or runs, or do you have to do it piece by piece?
Edit again: In fact, it doesn't seem to want to let me remove stuff at all right now. Just not doing it.

Next you should check out Sunstone. It's the next book on my list of amazing books to recommend.

Happy birthday Messi, but stop corrupting these impressionable minds with your lewd books
He's very responsive on Facebook despite him not updating/posting often. Very approachable online and in real life.
I've been reading Deadpool (2012-present) and just got up to issue #20 or so. The dead presidents arc was okay and the second arc was very fun. The intermission issues were kinda meh, especially this Uatu one where Deadpool had to collect puzzle pieces. It's silly but not much fun to read.

The idea that Sunstone, at least based on what I've read so far (being a DA comic makes this so easy), being corrupting to me is such an adorable concept.

Happy B-day messi!
Do you like love and friendship in your comics? Buy the trades of Sunstone. This book is worth it.
Why don't you? Like, he's one of many notorious shits acting as gatekeepers to comics as a hobby, telling women they have to deal with whatever little representation they get being oversexualized as all hell because that's just the way things go, which, in a way, is calling for worse comics as a whole.
And also it's funny, the guy's a gigantic dum-dum and I wanna stuff him into his locker, between two of his eleventy-billion shitty fucking Manara parody covers.
What are they looking for? ET? It was already found.

Why care about sexist media creators? I would think that the answer would be obvious.

Hah. Pretty much. I sometimes wonder if he goes and seeks out irratainment. I don't care for Cho's work, and so I don't give a crap on his opinions on things. If you don't like something, don't support it and it usually works itself out.
In fact I usually don't give a crap about any creators Politics, opinions on more important issues, their backgrounds, etc. I'd rather judge the work on the work alone.

Done and done, even if I'll end up reading well beyond the two released trades before they get here.
You know he redid loads of the art for the trades? It would be best to read them like that. Some of the improvements are a stark difference. But I understand the impulse to devour it all on deviantArt. It's a real page turner.
You know what book deserves more love as it is consistently great. Shutter. Lovely book with great characters. I love that there is a transgender character and that she is really well written.
