  1. Wow, it's been a while for me. Sorry about that. I'm glad to see everyone enjoying the chase. Remember it isn't about the end of the story, it is about the journey there. For me, it's been busy in life, but recently I have begun to read more. So with that, here we go: - Spawn 27-45 - Swamp Thing 5-13 (original series) - Brave and the Bold #74-91 - love this old series, very campy, but a good campy - Fantastic Four #1-11 (original series) - Picked up the first two FF omnibus' - The Pitiful Human-Lizard #1-5 - Cute story about a flawed hero from Toronto. I enjoyed this one. - Elephant Men #1-39 - rereading this series. It is making more sense reading back to back than it did on a monthly basis 143/1000 That's it for now. I will try to participate more frequently
  2. I honestly have no recollection of this. I can barely remember last week. I have no issues if he comes off the probation list.
  3. I was just about to post this - https://store.nakatomiinc.com/berniewrightsonsfrankenstein.aspx
  4. McFarlane's art is awesome, but his early writing was not the best.
  5. It asks more questions than gives answers. I want to continue reading it, without a doubt
  6. I haven't posted much, but I have read the following since my last update: Spawn #1-26 (minus one issue) Boy the 90's were bad Swamp Thing #1-4 (original series) I'm surprised I haven't read these sooner. Gideon Falls #1-11 Really weird. But a good weird. 42/1000
  7. Don't get discouraged, You'll get time. There is no pressure to this.
  8. Yup, I picked up the first bundle as well and I am rereading them.
  9. If anyone is looking for some reads online, try Humble Bundle. They usually have comic related bundles every month. This month is Spawn. https://www.humblebundle.com/books/spawn-2020-image-comics-books?hmb_source=humble_home&hmb_medium=product_tile&hmb_campaign=mosaic_section_2_layout_index_6_layout_type_twos_tile_index_2_c_spawn2020imagecomics_bookbundle
  10. Read Powers #1-6 (The death of Retro Girl). I have to admit, I was expecting more. It was well written, but somewhat anticlimactic. I am up to 8 now.
  11. I have the first TPB of this but haven't read it yet. Let me know what you think of it
  12. I’m just reading some silver age World’s Finest (reprints). #79 and 80. Back to when their secret identities are the main plot of the majority of their stories. Their adventures are a bit more magical than current reads, but that’s ok.
  13. I thought I would resurrect an old thread since I am so far behind in my own reading. For those that haven’t seen this before. This is a thread that challenges you to read 1000 comic books in 2020, and share your thoughts on the books you have read. Please note, this is not a competition. And anyone can participate. Personally I have so many books in my collection that I haven’t read, that I need some incentive to work through them. But you don’t need a reason if you want to contribute. Let’s just talk about comics. So, what counts as a comic book? I would say any standard 22 page comic would count as 1 book. A TPB would be whatever the number if issues are in that book. Anime would be a bit harder to figure out, but use your best judgement. Remember, it’s not a competition. Just have fun with it. Good luck everyone.
  14. If this is still around for my 2nd pick, I will take it: Prize 54: A variety of books and magazines (including Pepe Moreno "Zeppelin") - donated by Arak Zantara If not, I will give up my pick to one of the guys that missed picking the first time around @Arak Zantara @worldsbestcomics and @Stoy77
  15. Oddly enough the Star Wars lot was my back up pick.
  16. Prize 57: 16" x 20" French Spider-man poster. (plus a bonus $25 Amazon gift card for whichever of my donations is picked second) Thank you
  17. You are doing great. I would have flipped my computer by now
  18. My SS was ComicQuant and he knocked it out of the park with this gorgeous Bronze Age Omnibus. Thanks buddy.
  19. Oh I heard about the sale of the original. This is for a new print run.
  20. Hey folks, Nakatomi Art just put out a new printing for Bernie Wrightson's "I'll be with you on your wedding night" I have been looking for this piece for a while. And I know others have as well. https://store.nakatomiinc.com/berniewrightsonsfrankenstein.aspx
