1000 comics in 2013 book club

701 posts in this topic

I'm at 408 so far. Just passed 400 today.

 

The main bulk of my reading this month was Dr. Strange from Strange Tales #148 through the end of Strange Tales vol. 2 #19. 20 years of Dr. Strange in about a week. Now I am plowing through old Archies. Read about 40 issues of Archie so far this week.

All New X-Men #11. Started off so well but now is just silly.

 

Avengers #10. Tries too hard to be grand.

 

FF #6. Possibly the first appearance of comic book alien transvestism.

 

Fantastic Four #7. OK.

 

Guardians of the Galaxy #2. Excellent.

 

Captain Marvel #11 & #12. A couple of decent issues at last.

 

Captain Amrerica #5 & #6. Terrible.

 

Daredevil #24 & #25. Excellent.

 

Hawkeye #10. Still great.

 

Indestructible Hulk #7. Some ugly art in this book.

 

New Avengers #4 & #5. Getting interesting.

 

Iron Man. #8 & #9. A vast improvement on recent issues.

 

Iron Man #258.1. A comic book out of time.

 

Morbius the Living Vampire #4. Dull.

 

Red She Hulk #65. Not great.

 

Superior Spider-Man #9. Excellent!

 

Thanos Rising #2. Gripping!

 

Thunderbolts #8. Yawn.

 

Ultimate Wolverine #3. Terrible.

 

Ultimate X-Men #26. Boring.

 

Uncanny Avengers #7. Bad writing complimented by crappy art.

 

Uncanny X-Men #5. Double yawn.

 

X-Men Legacy ##9 & #10. More mutant misery.

 

Young Avengers #4. Mildly interesting.

Animal Man #20

TWD #110

Red Son :applause:

Memoir #1-6 -early candidate for worst of the year

Severed #1-7 -Mr. McCool, this is how you write a horror comic

DV8: Gods & Monsters #1-8

Shade #1-12: Robinson's return to his greatest "creation" (worship)

FF #1-23

Fantastic Four #570-588, #600-611 -w/ all due apologies to Stan & Jack (whose run i've never read), the FF worked best for me during Byrne & Waid's runs. Hickman doesn't match those.
