\\ Now Reading \\ The Flash No. 73Spoiler Alert: he's plenty fast enough. I'm a little behind on my reading and just got around to this one. The Year One story keeps trucking along. This wasn't a super exciting issue for me, felt like a bit of a lull episode to lead into what I'm assuming will be a convulsive issue 74 followed up by a cathartic 75 to round out the origin story. Good writing so far, the art felt a little less fully developed that the previous 3 YO chapters, but still a nice read. Barry Allen is the best Flash. #theflash #theflashcomics #dccomics #dcuniverse #yearone #joshuawilliamson #howardporter #timetravel #barryallen #barryallentheflash #igcomics #comicbooks #igcomicbookfamily #comics #igcomicbooks #igcomicbookcommunity\\ Now Reading \\ Batman and the Outsiders No. 3I'm a little split on this series so far. On the one hand there is a decent story being set up about the Outsiders coming together and Black Lightning developing into a leader, and the artwork is strong overall. On the other hand it feels a little disjointed, like they aren't sure what this book is about. How big of a role will Batman play? He alternates between support and central character roles, and it feels... awkward. I'm going to stick with it for another couple issues and see if it tightens up a little. And, that cover is terrible. I can't stand dialog on covers and all the YotV branding looks very poor. Hopefully next month looks a little better on the racks. #batmanandtheoutsiders #dccomics #dcuniverse #bryanhill #dextersoy #blacklighting #igcomics #comicbooks #igcomicbookfamily #comics #igcomicbooks #igcomicbookcommunity #newcomicbookday #ncbd #batmancameo\\ Now Reading \\ Paper Girls Vol. 4There is so much to read that sometimes you end up finding out about a series well into it's run, which is what happened for me with both Saga and Paper Girls. So my strategy for them both is the same: I read the TPBs from the library and buy the hardcovers for my collection when they are released. Paper Girls just keeps getting more bizarre, with characters from different periods looping back in on themselves, huge (selectively visible) mecha fights, and doppelgängers (or are they?) about... it's an insanely fun and crazy story. @briankvaughan is consistently excellent with his writing and this is a wonderful stranger Stranger Things before there was Stranger Things. The only bummer is now I get to twiddle my thumbs until my library gets Vol. 5. 😭 #papergirls #papergirlscomic #briankvaughan #cliffchiang #imagecomics #igcomics #comicbooks #igcomicbookfamily #comics #igcomicbooks #comic #igcomicbookcommunity #igcomicfamily #comiccollector #indie #indiecomics #indiepublisher #publiclibrary #lendinglibrary #supportyourlocallibrary\\ Now Reading \\ Thumbs No. 2This is my current 1b to Little Bird's 1a for current limited series. The story is great, the civil tech war premise driving the whole thing is a very "real" feeling concept. There is enough usually dystopia/hero journey material that it feels grounded. And enough unique twists and turns to be very original at the same time. The artwork is perfect for the story and really helps to drive the plot. This would be one of those cases where the sum of the creative team delivers so much more than you would expect, everything gels in a way that amplifies the book. If you aren't reading Thumbs, you definitely should be. #thumbscomic #seanlewis #haydensherman #imagecomics #igcomics #comicbooks #igcomicbookfamily #comics #igcomicbooks #igcomicbookcommunity #indie #indiecomics #indiepublisher #cyberpunk #scifi #dystopianfiction #dystopianfuture #comiccollector\\ Now Reading \\ DCeased No. 3Ah, poor Superman. This was not a good day for the Man of Steel. This series is on a great run, being non-canon they can just run with all kinds of awesome ideas. I'm interested to see who is going to make through No. 6 alive. My guess? Not very many. The zombie and horror variant covers are superb as well. These are great fun little summer reads, go grab a copy! #dceased #dccomics #batmancomics #tomtaylor #igcomics #comicbooks #igcomicbookfamily #comics #igcomicbooks #comic #igcomicbookcommunity #igcomicfamily #comiccollector #haljordanisdead #batmanisdead #robinisdead #nightwingisdead\\ Now Reading \\ BTTM FDRSAs expected, BTTM FDRS is one hell of a fun read. The story has a lot going on and the symbolism runs rampant, gentrification, cultural appropriation, tentacle monsters, misplaced rage, institutional racism, appropriately placed rage, well meaning but a little off-base allies, ooze-sacs, "cred" as an art/social commodity... I'm guessing a second read is in order to catch more of it. Wonderfully illustrated using a vibrant color palette not commonly used in grotesque human tentacle hybrid horror. A great example of using a comic as an art object the details throughout the book, like the subtly embossed intestine-tentacle on the cover, are very well done. It may not be everyone's cup of tea, but it sure is mine. #bttmfdrs #fantagraphics #ezraclaytandaniels #yourblackfriend #benpassmore #igcomics #comicbooks #igcomicbookfamily #comics #igcomicbooks #igcomicbookcommunity #indie #indiecomics #indiepublisher\\ Now Reading \\ Spawn No. 298The Road to 300 continues, but because @theoriginalcomicopolis got the virgin cover for me I'm doing it without all that road branding clogging up the page. And I get why they are making a big deal about 300 issues, but the covers look so much less tacky without it. Still glad I jumped back into Spawn after a two decade break, this story feels like it's building to a great catharsis moment (probably in Issue 300 would be my guess) and checking in on Al Simmons again has been a great nostalgia moment. 300 issues of a creator owned comic is a very big deal and something that lovers of indy books should support and celebrate. #spawn #hellspawn #originstory #imagecomics #toddmcfarlane #jasonshawnalexander #roadto300 #90snostalgia #igcomics #comicbooks #igcomicbookfamily #comics #igcomicbooks #comic #igcomicbookcommunity #igcomicfamily #comiccollector #indie #indiecomics #indiepublisher\\ Now Reading \\ Dark Red No. 4I like this title more every issue. We need more entertainment forms that promote the exploration of shades of experience beyond simple binary us vs them stereotypes. And doing it under the guise of nazis vampires in a Midwest town is just bonkers entertaining. @timseeley has mixed a blend of slasher horror, cultural identity, and personal trauma that plays on a lot of levels. Plus, vampires. I love the psychology behind vampires. #darkredcomic #aftershockcomics #vampires #timseeley #corinhowell #igcomics #comicbooks #igcomicbookfamily #comics #igcomicbooks #comic #igcomicbookcommunity #igcomicfamily #comiccollector #indie #indiecomics #indiepublisher\\ Now Reading \\ High Level No. 5Another solid issue of High Level this month. The art felt a little incomplete, not sure why and it could just be me, but Sheridans world building and story telling is really engaging. We get a wrap up on this arc next month and then possibly this title is all done. With DC deciding to shutter Vertigo, High Level won't have a home. But maybe they will find a new publisher and tragedy will be averted? Who else is trying to ascend to High Level? #highlevel #highlevelcomic #dccomics #dcvertigo #dystopianfiction #dystopianfuture #robsheridan #cyberpunk #igcomics #comicbooks #igcomicbookfamily #comics #igcomicbooks #comic #igcomicbookcommunity #igcomicfamily #comiccollector #indie #indiecomics #indiepublisherIt's #newcomicbookday ! Well actually it was yesterday but house hunting tasks have me behind on my posts. A backlog of Spawn this week, the new Dark Red and High Level, and BTTM FDRS which I'm super excited to read. With Vertigo being shuttered soon I hope High Level can find a new home, that titles deserves a longer run. And hoping to have a new place to store my book collection soon. What's everyone else reading this week? #spawn #spawncomics #theroadto300 #highlevel #highlevelcomic #darkredcomic #darkred #bttmfdrs #fantagraphics #imagecomics #vertigocomics #aftershockcomics #igcomics #comicbooks #igcomicbookfamily #comics #igcomicbooks #comic #igcomicbookcommunity #igcomicfamily #comiccollector #indie #indiecomics #indiepublisher\\ Now Reading \\ Middlewest No. 8Still by far my favorite ongoing series. I don't know what @skottieyoung background is, but somehow he has managed to capture nearly all of my feelings about caring for foster children in one book. Beautiful, heartbreaking, joyful, conflicting, fear-inducing, uplifting, it's the whole bag. The line about children not being pets that you need to train was so good! Even Maggie's thoughts are ones that briefly run through my head from time to time. A total homerun illustrated beautifully by @jorge_cor. My only tiny quibble with 8 is, the end of 7 had a very emotional cliffhanger and there wasn't a whiff of it in this issue. I really wanted resolution. Still an A+, this title is a must read. #middlewest #imagecomics #skottieyoung #jorgecorona #thisisfostercare #animalsknowbest #igcomics #comicbooks #igcomicbookfamily #comics #igcomicbooks #comic #igcomicbookcommunity #igcomicfamily #comiccollector #indie #indiecomics #indiepublisher\\ Now Reading \\ Sex Criminals - Vol 1 & 2Borrowed these from a friend. I had heard the premise and was pretty intrigued. Overall, it was a decent read but it didn't grab me the way I was hoping. The story is decent, I'm a little bummed the didn't "rob banks" but only robbed one bank. Art is also good. My biggest issue is that I feel like some of the dialog, especially from the female characters, sounds like how a 14 year old boy would want an adult woman to talk vs how women actually talk. But maybe that's only reflective of the women I hang out with. I think I was hoping for a little more Criminals to go along with the Sex. As with all things, your mileage may vary. Anybody have thoughts on this one? Am I missing out greatly if I don't continue with the title? #sexcriminals #mattfraction #chipzdarsky #imagecomics #igcomics #comicbooks #igcomicbookfamily #comics #igcomicbooks #comic #igcomicbookcommunity #igcomicfamily #comiccollector #indie #indiecomics #indiepublisher
