Finished Shadowland and although Waid's DD would be next, I don't love it. It's mostly good, but there are some silly parts so I'm going to skip it and I just started Soule's DD v1 tpb.

Have BPRD lined up to read after this Library Edition . Following a reading order, which includes BPRD and the other titles: http://www.multiversitycomics.com/an...ng-order-2019/
I'm currently reading Rick Remender's Uncanny Avengers run, as a follow up to his Uncanny X-Force. A good sequel of sorts so far, with a strong and compelling storyline. Some of the artwork is marred by John Cassaday's subpar John Romita jr.-esque drawings, but eh... I guess it could be worse.
I'm going to finish this run with Axis, which I haven't read before, but heard was terrible - so that should be interesting...
Just finished Postal: The Complete Collection. Couldn’t give it more than 3/5. The artwork was nicely handled and the world was convincingly portrayed. The problem is that I couldn’t get invested in the story in large part because the characters were not compelling. I had heard good things about this series so it’s a bit of a miss for me. Next up I’ll be picking back up where I left off on ASM Omni Vol 1.
I'm diving into DC's The New 52 (which I didn't read when it was originally released.......I've been more of a Marvel/Image/Darkhorse guy. With the exception of Batman of course lol)
So just finished:
- Absolute Flashpoint (I know this story from the animated feature. Slightly rushed, but I enjoyed this event book)
Next up:
- Absolute Justice League: Origins (it arrives Monday)
The following books are on my shelf waiting to be read after that:
- Wonder Woman Azzarello & Chiang Omni
- Batman Snyder & Capullo Omni
- Grayson Omni
- Deathstroke Omni
- Animal Man Lemire Omni
- justice League Darkseid War Saga Omni
Let's see how this goes.......
Wow you're a few years ahead of me but we're in the same general area. I just finished the 52 omnibus. Really fun read, the weekly issue format helps propel it along and there were a few cool surprises. Might be my favorite from this era yet, though I like Seven Soldiers quite a bit also.
Next up for me is Green Lantern by GJ omni 1 then Batman by Morrison 1, before I break off for Final Crisis. I'll keep your list in mind if I decide to continue on after that.
BPRD Plague of Frogs HC 4. It finally happened, after 3 unproblematic HCs, this one crapped out on me Glued it last night so hopefully I can continue reading tonight after work.
Story's great though.
I thought Animal Man and Wonder Woman were particularly good books. I think the Snyder Capullo Batman run started off really strong and Capullo's art was amazing throughout. I was curious about Grayson.
I am currently reading the Family Man trade of Hellblazer. I really have taken to Constantine the character and Delano's take. I hope the Ennis stuff holds up!
I have also been reading the first Bronze Age Justice League book where the Seven Soldiers first showed up. Great stuff by Len Wein and Dick Dillin.
Thanks. I hope booksetc gets it back in stock.
