Comics I've Read From August 22, 2007

So, I read a little bit of everything this week. Mouse Guard Winter 1152 #1 lived up to David Peterson's previous Mouse Guards. I read the last series in one fell swoop, but I don't think I can wait this time. I guess I'll read and re-read them. Complete Peanuts Vol. 8 came out this week, and my son was very kind to point out that these are the years where surfing Snoopy made his debut. Duncan was quite young when I taught the "Cowabunga!" yell. Ahhhh, Peanuts.....I'll never outgrow it! World War Hulk Gamma Files was wonderful for me because I'm still trying to learn who all of these Hulk characters are. World War Hulk Gamma Corps was smashing!!(ha..ha..) Batman #668 reminded that I need to read Batman more regularly to keep up, especially with Grant Morrison writing. What is it about Sam Kieth that keeps me reading his work? (Batman Lobo #1) It must be the humor because he's not exactly kind to his female characters, oh and that unique drawing style. I need to read some more of Bill Willingham's work (I read Fables and Shadowpact). Any suggestions?

You're going to be appalled that I haven't read more comics from this week. We work with over 100 libraries in the state who have graphic novel collections, and this is the time of year where school libraries keep me busy. Wolverine Origins #16 was great. I also read Good As Lily from the DC Minx series. It's a great read by Derek Kirk Kim who has also created Same Difference and Other Stories and co-created Gordon Yamamoto and the King of the Geeks with Gene Yang. On my list to still read from this week is Baltimore Steadfast Tin Soldier and Vampire. As always, I welcome suggestions.

It's another great week for comics... Fables, my all-time favorite, took a break from the current storyline to celebrate Snow White's and Bigby's pups fifth birthday. The tie-in to Jack of Fables was hilarious. World War Hulk Incredible Hulk and Front Line are great reads. The issues have original stories that are not repetitive. I picked up Punisher War Journal during Civil War and can't stop reading it! I meant to read BPRD but ran out of time because I've discovered Miki Falls, a manga written and illustrated by Mark Crilley of Akiko fame. It's beautifully illustrated with all the shading down by hand. I guess I'm an enigma, one week I'm reading The Walking Dead, and the next week I'm reading a romance! Until next week, happy reading!

Wow! The past two weeks have been a blur! We were vendors at Mugglefest, so, although I read my favorite comics, I've been delinquent on posting. It's been so nice this past week to have time to read and reread my faves. Topping off the list for this week, I thoroughly enjoyed WW Hulk #3. I think I'll follow Hulk's and Dr. Strange's lead. Laura smash! Dark Tower #7 was once again true to the original series, truly dark and gory. Peter the Pirate Squid is a wacky Roman Dirge romp; the illustrations are sweet. Upon recommendation from a fellow blogger, I picked up Thor. Coipel's pencilling and Laura Martin's coloring are amazing. Intermittently, I read Uncanny X-Men and am enjoying the Endangered Species story arc. I am now up through The Walking Dead V. 5. I can't imagine what Robert Kirkman's dreams must be like. Thanks to all who have left comments! I always welcome recommendations.
