I just ordered volume one of Walter Simonson's The Mighty Thor. Should be here any time. Apart from that, I'm too busy to read comics. Tried over the holidays. Failed. :(

are you still picking up Batman issues?

speaking of dead comic talk, i forgot that corto maltese book. agh!

anyway hotdogs are tasty but they have the same nutrition as a strip of bacon-- 3g protein and the rest is fat.

so i'd throw some eggs in there when possible. or a steak.

i like a hot dog egg scramble, good stuff.

try the currywurst also (it's the wurst!). no, really, tasty stuff-- ketchup + curry. it's a german thing, but works in dawgs too.

i don't think i've ever had a coney island dog. gotta try them this summer maybe.

huh I never thought to scramble hotdogs in eggs. That sounds good tho. I like em cut up in mac n cheese...

oh hell the hot dog omelette is tasteeeeee

The very thought of reading comics while eating hot dogs scares me. Mustard-stained pages! :eek:

i grew up reading comics on newsprint so it's great to wrap some fries also

none of the fancy carboard of today (when i was your age i walked 15 miles to school in the snow?)

oh btw i fucked up the nutrition, it's more like just 3g protein on a dog--5 was an exaggeration

i'll fix above

oh fuck that. Yeah - food goes nowhere near my comics.

It's something I'll never stop doing, but I'm not actively doing it now. I have a few issues loaded up on my iPad from Batman: Rebirth, and I left off at a key moment in a man arc involving Bane and Psycho Pirate that I was really into, so I'll get back into it soon.

Also, Superman. Same story. Have backissues on the pad, just waiting for the right time to read them.

I'm thinking of subscribing to MARVEL's on-demand service (forget what it's called) because I just re-watched Civil War and it made me want to dig into some Cap stuff I missed.

Also, I don't know if this really counts, but I did read the first volume of the BLEACH manga a little while ago. I loved BLEACH before it got shitty (last arc), and I think it's an excellent supernatural superhero story, so I'm probably going to move forward with volume 2.

Marvel Unlimited.

I jumped ahead to Batman #14 this week. A new story starting w Catwoman. Wasnt really enjoying I Am Gotham...

I have been reading so much and updating my blog accordingly.

You should read I Am Gotham and then skip to I am Suicide. Don't leave the first arc of a new reboot out. It's good, and the climax is powerful. Plus it ties in with everything that follows. Not a great time to jump around, Rebirth.

I know I should... but I probably won't. I *might* go back and read the I Am Suicide stuff, but... I'm juggling reading so many series right now, man. And you know DC isn't as high on my list. I already dropped Justice League Vs Suicide Squad after two issues.

Actually my favorite DC series currently is Supergirl: Being Super which is a mini-series outside of the main Supergirl series.

Just ordered Batman 11-14 from Forbidden Planet.

Do you subscribe? Can you tell me if it's worth it? Do they have, for instance, Walter Simonson's Thor run? Or, like, X-Force and X-Factor? Complete story arcs, or chopped up bits like Hulu?

Dude. Read it. It'll take 15 minutes. And it's good. Gets good anyway. And I Am Suicide has perhaps the coolest Bane ever. Must read. Do it.

I dont have Unlimited. I havent read a digital comic in like 6 months really.

Hmm.

Well, digital is all I really have access to these days.

I wish they offered a free trial so I could see what it was like. I'm probably just gonna get it, but I'm not nuts about the idea of doing so without knowing what awaits me.

Fucking shit, I finally got it!



Can't wait to hunker down and dive into this thing. I plan on reading it straight through, from one volume to the next (unless for some reason it sucks). Anyway, this is going to take a while.

Took its sweet ass time getting here. Fucking Christ!

Man I can't believe you aren't going to read I am Gotham/Suicide. It's like... dude. It takes me maybe 5 minutes to read an issue. Sometimes more. Point is, even if I hate them, they're over before I know it.

And I would think that as a Bat-fan, the cover of that issue with Bane standing behind Bats looking crazy and prison rapey would be enough to keep you cookin'. That's a great cover! Oh well.
