1000 comics in 2014 book club

160 posts in this topic

Do they have to be hardcopies of comics?

 

With the Marvel Unlimited Ap I will clear 1000 easily.

 

A lot of my books are through the Marvel app and Comixology so i say they count.

 

IMHO, if it is an issue of the comic that you read fully, whether digital or paper, it is an issue read.

I concur. The medium doesn't matter.

I actually kind of like it right now. I should be picking up #3 this week, and I already have #4, which I'll read after #3.

 

I didn't read Trinity War, so I may need a bit more backstory, but I do like the Crime Syndicate from Earth-3.

TWD #119- i sense a jumping off point approaching

DeadPool Gauntlet #1 - worth the price (free)

Rocketeer Movie adaptation- i suspect watching Jennifer Connelly would trump reading this

Wormwood: Gentleman Corpse: Calamari Rising #1-4 -stunk of old fish

Lowlife #1-5 -Brubaker's kvetching tale

Fatale #15-19- Brubaker's fetching tale

Frankenstein: Agent of Shade #0-16 -harmless fun

Secret Warriors #1-28 -uninteresting characters doing things i don't care about

Irredeemable #1-37 -worth a look, i loved the coda

Slow month????:o

 

January was probably my all-time monthly record. 127.

 

Added Northlanders 1-39. Well written. Some stories are engaging while others... not so much.

Wow paperheart! That's sounds awesome! And challenge accepted!

 

I know I lucked out discovering three really good series which made last month easier for me to read the volume that I did - "Electronic Sheep", "Hawkman" and Mighty Thor".

 

I just found out today that the Hawkman issues were collected in an Omnibus Edition, which now finds it's way on my need-to-buy list.
