Marvels 1-4

Once again re-reading this awesome mini series. 
I can still remember seeing the photo-realisitic image of Giant man walking across the skyline in the latest issue of PREVIEWS that Jason picked up and spazzing, "H-holy FUCK! that's TOTALLY how Goliath would look if he was real!"
When issues 1 and 2 came out, I remember it was super hard to find them...can't even remember where I got it from now, but it was expensive, I didn't pay cover price for it. I remember after work at Light Inc, we found a comic store on Queen Street and I went in and asked, "Do you have "Marvels"? To which the guy said, "yeah, Marvels and DC...what title you looking for?"
No, we explained....the actual comic called Marvels. LOL.

Usagi Yojimbo Vol.18-20

Just decided to dive in randomly in the Usagi series, this arc with Usagi travelling with his son Jotaro is becoming one of my big favorites.

Sugar & Spike: Metahuman Investigators

Very interesting idea (of a grown up Sugar and Spike investigating the early Silver Age DC Comics' more embarrassing stories) brought down by irritating writing. I HATE THIS HIPSTER DIALOG SHLOCK

Avengers 1.1

Picked this up reimagining/reboot  because it featured one of my all time favorite AVENGERS line ups, but man, I just hate these newfangled "cool" writers like Mark Waid who write like they're the hippest guys in the world, focusing more on hipster dialog than actual character development. I can barely stand it from Peter David, and I LIKE him!
Will try for a few more issues, but if he continues to write Scarlet Witch like this then forget it.

East Of West Vol.3-6

Sixth Trade in the awesome series EAST OF WEST came out and I thought I'd  go back a few books to brush up on the storylines and so began re-reading the series from Book 3.
