Just wanted to let listeners know that all is well. March has been one of the most intensely busy months I've weathered at work. An entire week could pass without my computer even getting powered on. I have, however, been able to record bits while driving that can be put together later. April looks a lot more relaxed, and I'll have some time off to podcast.

Just a quick update of where I've been. Also, some thoughts on some comics I no longer buy. Check out The Cinematic Attic. (10:17) The cover pic with this episode is of a comic book adaptation I bought recently. You could consider the clash between my two hobbies, as mentioned in the podcast, a clash of titans. |

I set a goal to read 100 comics in December. One hundred comics in 30 days can be a challenge for a guy with a lot of hobbies and so little free time. For those who might be curious, here's what I read: Newer comics (2009-present): The not-so-new books:

Invasion #3 from DC Comics. Whe I was a kid, I walked into the grocery store one day with my family, and there on the magazine rack inside the door was Invasion #3. I hadn't seen the first two issues before that (not that I recall, anyway), and this one made my young jaw drop. All those heroes on the cover! All those heroes inside! United to face a global threat of alien invasion! So many ill in a full page shot of hospital beds! I would hunker down there beside the rack and flip through the pages, so excited about this comic. As I said, the magazine rack (more like shelves) was right beside the entrance to the store, and I remember many times hunched there getting a blast of cold air whenever someone entered the store in winter. I don't know if this was one of those times, but if it was, I wouldn't have noticed as entranced as I was. I have since bought issues 1 and 2, but as yet haven't read them.
