    June 22-30: 178 Books
    • Uncanny X-Men #181-183 (3)
    • Kitty Pryde & Wolverine #1-6 (6) - This probably could have been like 4 issues. Also, not a fan of Yukio and Wolverine kissing when he's in an allegedly serious relationship with Mariko.
    • New Mutants #18-20 (3
    • Uncanny X-Men #184 (1)
    • Uncanny X-Men Annual #8 (2)

    • Star Wars: Vader Down (6)
    • Darth Vader Volume 3: The Shu-Torun War (6)
    • Darth Vader Volume 4: End of Games (7)
    • The Wicked + The Divine Book One (17) - Wasn't really for me then I first read it, but after giving it another chance after really liking Gillen's Die with Stephanie Hans, I found it quite enjoyable. Great hook and McKelvie's art is great as always.
    • The Wicked + The Divine Book Two (16)
    • Champions Volume 4: Northern Lights (5)
    • Champions #22-27, Annual #1 (8)
    • Champions (2019-) #1-5 (5) - #5 may be the only time Marvel acknowledges the adult O5 X-Men getting their time-displaced counterpart's memories outside of Extermination but I'll take what I can get. Possibly my favorite issue of the new series.
    • Scooby Apocalypse Volume 1 (6)
    • Scooby Apocalypse Volume 2 (6)
    • Scooby Apocalypse Volume 3 (6)
    • Scooby Apocalypse Volume 4 (6) - Cool twist on the classic TV show.

    Blue Devil #4, 6, 13, 20 (4) – And I've now re-read every pre-Crisis comic I own this year. I'm just not sure why I own these. This series is just a little too silly for my current tastes. I'm a big enough Zatanna fan to keep issue #4 for her appearance, but the other 3 issues have been tossed on my "to sell" stack.
    Crisis on Infinite Earths #1-12 (12) – End of an era. Decent story, I but I do think it's a little over-rated. And I still disagree with the whole concept of eliminating the multi-verse.
    Man of Steel (miniseries) #1-6 (6) – Post-Crisis Superman reboot. Pretty good stuff.
    Wonder Woman #1-6 (6) – Start of post-Crisis Wonder Woman reboot. Truly fantastic origin issue #1, with great art by Perez, and good story arc overall to start the series.

    Read since last update: 28
    Read so far this year: 224


    Next up: I started reading comics in the early 90s, so everything I have from this immediate post-Crisis period was picked up as back issues a few years after it came out. Flash is the only one I was a completionist about. But I do have the Legends miniseries, some Bat-books, more Wonder Woman, the starts of the Justice League and Suicide Squad runs from that time period, and maybe a couple of other things. So I think Legends is probably next, followed by some of those others.

    Continuing my summer reading...

    Avengers #24-34/ New Avengers #18-23: Hickman continues his Avengers saga with some arcs that have high stakes and cool concepts, but that are accessible enough.

    Avengers 35-44/ New Avengers #24-33: Hickman's Avengers run concludes with one of the highest-stakes Marvel sagas ever, as the heroes deal with the impending end of the world.

    Batman Damned #1-3: Beautifully illustrated but kinda empty story of a Batman pushed to his limits.

    Major X #1-6: It's probably safe to say Liefeld is not for me.

    JSA #16-31: This is the point where the book became one of the best team books ever, with a great mix of new and old heroes facing tremendous challenges from a creative team who could make obscure golden age villains into apocalyptic threats.

    Secret Wars #0, 1-9: A story that works on a lot of levels, as a conclusion to Hickman's Avengers, a coda to his Fantastic Four, an exploration of multiple intersecting universes, and one of the ultimate Doctor Doom stories. Gorgeous art by Ribic.

    American Splendor #1-10: This is my first time reading all these stories, although I'm sure I've read snippets elsewhere and seen the film. This is excellent work, as Harvey Pekar and his artists explore the mundane aspects of life, intersecting with some fascinating stories (some true/ some not.) Probably one of the best comic book anthologies ever.

    The Wild Storm #1-24: Decent reimagining of a superhero universe that does take a while to get to payoff, but sets an interesting clash between multiple clanedestine groups.

    Batman #33-40: Solid Batman stories in the aftermath of the engagement dealing with great material (Talia Al Ghul, a dark connection between Bruce Wayne and a new villain, Superman, and Wonder Woman.)

    What If? #88/ Peter Parker the Spectacular Spider-Man #127: Two of my favorite Spider-Man one-shots.

    Antifa the Comic Book: Stylistically primitive and incomplete history of fascist movements and the resistance.

    Showa A History of Japan Volume 1: Excellent take on the tough times of Japan pre-World War 2 balancing Shigeru Mizuki's experiences and the big story.

    Willie and Joe The World War 2 Years: Excellent series of mostly one-panel gags. Sometimes funny and moving, and a great artifact of the experiences of ordinary soldiers in World War 2.

    Total So Far: 346 single issues, 3 graphic novels

    Best of the batch: American Splendor, although it's been a good two weeks.
    Sincerely,
    Thomas Mets

    July 1-7: 99 Books
    • Gotham Central Book 2: Jokers & Madmen (12) - The story with the Mad Hatter and the high school baseball team was really dark, but also really good.
    • Gotham Central Book 3: On the Freak Boat (10) - Favorite scene has to be when Renee and Crispus are talking about Batman.
    • Batman: War Games Book One (23)
    • Batman: War Games Book Two (28)
    • Identity Crisis #1-7 (10) - This was just kinda confusing. It feels like half of this book didn't need to be there.
    • Batman: Under the Red Hood (16) - Also could have been shorter, but I liked this a lot better than anything else besides Gotham Central. However, imo, the movie did a better job with the story.

    Best Of: Gotham Central

    July Total: 99 Books

    Wonder Woman #7 (1) – Recovery issue after 1st story arc
    Legends #1-6 (6) – Formation of Suicide Squad and new Justice League, lead in to new Flash series
    Detective #568 (1) – Legends tie in
    Justice League #1-7 (7) – Start of the post-Crisis League
    Flash #1-14 (14) – Start of Wally West as the third Flash. Not very good, but not completely terrible. If this had been my first exposure to the series, I never would have stuck with it. But I picked these up as back issues while reading Mark Waid’s fantastic run on the series in the 90s.
    Flash Annual #1 (1) – Bad martial arts story. Wally cheats on his girlfriend.

    Umbrella Academy vol 1 - (6 issues) - a surprisingly great little gem
    Mr & Mrs X #6-12 (7 issues) - good fun

    That takes me up to 178!
    Generation X (2017 series) - 12 issues - decent series that never *really* got out of the "nice but inoffensive and insubstantial" bracket
    Gambit (2011 series) - 17 issues - good stuff, again showing that Gambit is far more enjoyable as a solo character rather than in team books
    Transformers #8 - signs of improvement
    Giant Size X-Statix #1 - God, I have missed this

    Total - 209 issues.

    Wonder Woman #8-9 (2) – This series really was amazing back then.
    Flash #15-18 (4) – Start of Bill Messner-Loeb’s run as writer of the series, which ran until issue 61. I remember liking some of his work on the series, but not as much as Mark Waid’s later run. First four issues weren’t a very good start, mostly because he continued what his predecessor started, which wasn’t very good.
    Secret Origins Annual #2 (1) – Origins of Wally West and Barry Allen. Wally’s story is nothing special, but Barry’s adds a nice detail to his origin story without actually changing it.
    Flash Annual #2 (1) – Mediocre main story, backup story featuring Chunk is the highlight of the issue
    Suicide Squad #1-12 (12) – Start of the classic Ostrander Squad. Some very good issues, but a couple of not so good. Way too much reliance on crossovers with other comics, especially in #9, with the Milennium crossovers. But I loved the confrontation with Batman in #10.
    Flash #19-28 (10) – Issue 19 was hilarious, with Flash attending a party of his predecessor’s Rogue’s Gallery. The next few issues weren’t as good, but it got steadily better from there. Issue 28 is significant as both the first appearance of Linda Park (Flash’s eventual wife) and editor Brian Augustyn, who edited, and occasionally cowrote, the book through most of its best years in the 90s.

    146. War of the Realms 6 ------In spite all the tangents and BIGNESS of the story--this issue was a good Thor story. Didn't like the mixtape feeling of the other issues, but I have to admit I'm glad I stuck around to see the end.

    147-148. Invaders 6-7 ------Somehow this Invaders story feels bigger and higher stakes than war of realms.

    149-150. Avengers 20-21 -----This is turning into my favorite run of Avengers in a long time

    151-152. Amazing Spiderman 24-25----- Still stalling on revealing who the big bad guy is. I think they're lingering way to long for any "shock" to be satisfying. i'm expecting a groaner when it's finally revealed.

    153. Savage Avengers 2

    154. Guardians of the Galaxy 6

    155. Friendly Neighborhood Spiderman 7

    156-157. Immortal Hulk 20-21

    158. Spiderman Life Story 5

    159. Weapon Plus 1--- Nice Surprise. wasn't expecting to pick this up, but I love this concept.

    160.-168 Flash 64-72--- Finally getting caught up. Great book

    169. Batman 65--- Flash crossover

    170. Doctor Strange: Damnation 1--- Picked these up in a dollar box. Missed them the first time. it's a cool mix of characters. Fun book.
