Picked up Revival and Think Tank trades, as well as the first Chew trade.
Also got Saga #8 and Multiple Warheads #3

How do you all keep your comics organized? Storage/shelving? Do you bag and board stuff?

Batman: The Dark Knight Returns is my all time favorite. Want to pick up Year one ASAP.
Sin City (of course)
Not so much into the sloppy Frank Miller... Dark Knight rises again? I think it's called... 300...


I can't help it, I quite like "All Star Batman and Robin" Goddamn Batman and all. It's Frank Miller when he went insane, but as long as you try to read it like it's an elaborate parody of Batman (even though it's allegedly a prequel to Dark Knight Returns/Strikes Again), it's kinda fun.

I've really enjoyed Think Tank, and Revival is pretty cool, as well.

Read all of Scott Pilgrim last night. I saw the movie first, so some things were pretty weird.

Yes.

Classic literature being adapted to gfx novel is simply outstanding.

There's also a great "Merchant of Venice"

Wish they were available when I was in school. Book reports would have been somewhat fun.

But long before those I was all about Akira, The Maxx, Spawn...and my absolute favorite superhero saga:

...due to the appearance and involvement of all the rarely seen/obscure Celestials.
