Ex-Machina 1 to 15. Great stuff. Is Brian K Vaughan the best writer in comics today? I say yes. 9/10.
It wasn't a novel, it was Unknown Worlds of Science Fiction No. 2
Spider-man 62 part three of Exiled which is part of the Clone Saga. I am quite enjoying the clone saga as I plod my way through it but boy oh boy, it does go on. Anyway the end is in sight.
Afterlife with Archie: Escape from Riverdale. 5/5. Never read an Archie comic before but had an idea of what it was about. Anyway, it was terrific with great art. The first few pages of Issue 4...
Daredevil: Father by Joe Quesada. He is quite a good artist is Quesada but he's not a great writer - cliched to say the least. Then having said he is quite good artist, his art has become very...
Venom: Space Knight 1 to 9. On the face of it quite stupid - Flash Thompson as Venom in Space - but hey ho, I'll give it a go and it was quite enjoyable. Enjoyed the art and the story. Nice easy...
The Death of Captain Marvel. Nice art and a nice story. Not overly dramatic which I think would have ruined it, understated and all the better for it. 8/10.
Jungle Action featuring Black Panther 16 from 1975 - part of the Panther's Rage story. Don McGregor was certainly a writer who like to write lots of words. A tad too many I think. Nice if...
Material By Ales Kot and some quite poor artist. Not such much a story as ... I don't know, stuff about Black Lives Matter, torture victims from Guatanamo Bay, a professor lecturing a class and so...
Requiem Vampire Knight Book 1 by Pat Mills and Olivier Ledrioit. I am not sure what I can say about it. It's just crazy and I am not sure if it's in a good way. Nice art but the story, wow ... might...
Marvel Unlimited is one of the wonders of the modern age. I stopped buying Marvel comics in 1992 (for financial reasons) and though I have bought some since, I can now catch up on a lot of the stuff...
The Mark of Kaine arc in the Clone Saga. This is bonkers insane but in a good way. It's as if when they were plotting it they thought they'd just keep chucking more and more stuff and see what...
I have moved to digital almost entirely. I've signed up for Marvel Unlimited and it's brilliant. If I want to read some old X-Men, I don't have to go and dig them out from up in the loft, I can just...
Annihilation Conquest 2. Lovely art and a decent enough story. 6/10.
I walked past Scarlett from River City outside Buchanan Galleries in Glasgow.
Darth Vader 1 to 5. Fantastic art. Really enjoyed the story. 8/10.
Master Keaton Vol 1 with art by the incomparable Naoki Urasawa - well the first three stories anyway - 8/10.
Velvet 6 to 15. Finally got around to finishing this series. It's all a bit silly. How many times does a character have to light a cigarette? Does Brubaker get money from Big Tobacco to promote...
Madwoman of the Sacred Heart 1 & 2. Absolutely fantastic. 9/10. Moebius, what an artist.
Tomb of Dracula 30. Okay. Art quite nice. 6/10.
I am reading my way through Annihilation. Just on the Prologue so I have read the mini series of Drax the Destroyer (which I grew to like), Annihilation Prologue, Nova 1 to 4 (enjoyable stuff) and...
Thanos Rising 1 to 5. Pretty good stuff. 7/10
Amazing Adult Fantasy 7. Short stories by Lee & Ditko some of which are not that original. 5/10
Drax the Destroyer 1. Not sure about this. 5/10

I really liked his art esp on Punisher. You couldn't mistake his work for any other artist. Distinctive.
Finished off Injustice with the last 6 issues and nice art but a the ending was a bit of a damp squib.
Well the Native Americans have been treated appallingly in their ancestral homelands. To be fair, their ancestral lands were stolen off of them plus an awful lot of them were killed - some call it a...
