A friend asked me how many books I was reading the other day. I asked if he was talking novels or comic books. He said both, and there were so many on the list, it was hard to give him a good number. I think I said something brilliant like “I dunno…maybe 20?” So…here’s a more concrete list. New things keep getting added, but nothing seems to get taken off. In my New Year’s Resolution post [link to post]. Something I didn’t mention was that I’m reading every evening for at least 30 minutes, and it has to be something that isn’t on a screen. (See…I’m trying to get better at actually sleeping too, but that’s a whole other story). That 30 minutes comes in helpful, because my pull list is massive, and that doesn’t include the to-read stack in my bookshelf. My favorite local comic shop closed, so I found my second favorite…which isn’t local at all, that will ship my books to me. New comic books day isn’t every Wednesday for me anymore, because…mail is slow, but I do get to look forward to a box each week that holds worlds and wonders. Here’s what’s on my list as of today. (These are in no order whatsoever.)
- Doomsday Clock
- Scarlet
- Suicide Squad: Black Files
- Coyotes

- Magic Order
- Paper Girls
