1000 books in 2022
Here we go again!
Happy new year and welcome to the 2022 edition of the 1000 books challenge!
The goal, just like in the previous years, is to read at least a 1000 comic book issues in the coming 365 days, starting today!
Keep us updated of your progress and if you fancy, write a few lines about what you've read, what you liked and disliked, just to keep things interesting and informative (even if you just pick your favorite and least favorite of your batch).
Usually a 22 page comic counts as one issue, in case of other formats (Euro comics, manga, etc) just divide the page count with 22. That said, if you feel like your 48 pages long French album is really wordy and takes just as long to read as a 120pg american tpb, then feel free to count it as 3 or even 5 issues, nobody gonna shout at you, it's all for fun.
Feel free to adjust the volume of the challenge depending on your circumstances. If you think you can only manage to read 300 issues this year, you are still more then welcome to participate and use this thread to keep track of your readings.
Same goes if you think you will read way more than a 1000 issues.
Happy reading everyone!

Bad news: I'm moving from Japan back to America so my physical collection is going to be out of my possession for 3-4 months to start the year.
Good news: I still have my tablet and 2600+ single issues/TPBs in my Comixology account.
Time to get rereading!
-
I'll be keeping tally again. I managed just over 1300 last year, we will see what this year brings.
-M

Happy New Year everybody!!!!
After a few years of not reaching the 1000 mark I hit 1,339 this year...above and beyond what I was expecting!!!! Looking forward to seeing what I do this year.!!!
-
I haven't even totaled last year yet -- but I'm definitely in for this year!
WEEKLY GOAL: 21 issues

Kudos for those cool reading numbers, everyone! I'm intending to really step up my comic reading this year. For me that goal looks more like 200+ comics, and I'd love to hit 300 to 500 etc. More the merrier, will see how I do!
For a bit of fun minutia, one of my big reads is always the Judge Dredd Complete Case Files. Those are 6 page weekly 2000AD episodes, and 10 page Judge Dredd Megazine episodes. So for me I count four of the weekly ones (24 pages) as a comic, and two of the monthly ones (20 pages or so) as a comic. If I was reading the up to date 2000AD anthology, I'd count the anthology as a comic, but I rarely am up to date. I also count manga chapters, which tend to be around 18 pages, kind of like an older Marvel comic was at times. One Piece is my manga of choice at the moment.
Here's to some good comic reading, oh yes! This is the year I finish the Claremont X-Men run, it's happening folks.

I have been absent from this contest for Far to Many years now, but I want to try to get back on the Horse and Try to Achieve this Again, I did it one year, I like to go for a Double! :)
[I][B][U]I just had one question on the contest. Does it have to be 1000 different Issues or if I decent to read certain issues 2 times does that count as 2 read[/U]?[/B][/I]
I am just wondering cause lots of books I am reading I am starting to read 2 times now?

There are no hard and fast rules, this is more just to entice people to read (bit of motivation to get you through that ever increasing backlog).
But any comic you read can count, so if it's the same issue twice, that's still reading.

I'm down for this! I wasn't officially part of the challenge last year, as I had just returned to the hobby and started reading comics again in late May. I finished with 815 issues read.
-
I've actually stopped recording my reading and I'm finding that I'm enjoying it more, but great to see this still going. I think I'm also reading more than ever! Good luck all :)
-
I finished this month of January with 215 comics read. I built a spreadsheet used as a log for anyone interested. There you can find ratings for all of the titles I read. Bring on February!
