I've recently taken an interest in Mark Waid's work, and with Irredeemable wrapping up next month, I'm thinking about going for that.

I want that and his other series with a similar name. (What was it called again?)

Do you like getting kicked in the crotch a lot? Then Irredeemable is for you!  ;)

It is written well, however.

Thanks! Once I got another spot on my ILLs, I'm putting Irredeemable on hold.

Yesterday I read:

Batman Gotham Noir- A comic starring Jim Gordon that's about him being framed for murdered from the team of Ed Brubaker and Sean Phillips? Of course it was going to be good. They also didn't resort to being all shock value and whatever. There's actually little blood in this comic.

Thor The Mighty Avenger Volume 2- WHY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1 WHHHHYYYYYYY!!!! This is the end, THE FUCK?!!! That was such a cock teasing ending. This series should still be going on. Ugh, top my list of comic that was finished too soon.

Today:

The Immortal Iron Fist Volume 5 Escape From The Eighth- Believe this is the end to the main story of Iron Fist's series. It was decent.

G.I. Jone Cobra Volume 3- Meh.

G.I. Joe Cobra Volume 4- :swoon: FIVE STARS!!! V. 3 was basically filler shit. I wish the entire series was as good as either this volume or volume 1. Chuckles having a battle of the minds with one of the villains was great.

Ultimate Comics Ultimate Spider-Man Volume 1- I'm back into this series now. Whatever they rebooted or whatever worked. I sucked back into this world.

I think 4 comics in one day is the highest # of comics I've ever read in a day. I believe I did this a few other times.

I suddenly have the hunger for X-Men comics. But what to read?

Claremont's Uncanny run is just incredible. But I'd suggest looking up the Dark Phoenix arc and his Wolverine moiniseries for starters.
Life is not about the second chances. It's about a little mouse and his voyage to an exciting new land. That, my friend, is what life is.

Sir, do you have any Warrants?
I got their first CD, but you can't have it, motherfucker!

^I would go with that, personally.

Recently read Spider-Man/Human Torch. If you wanna see how the Ultimate Spider-Man cartoon should've been handled, I highly recommend this. It shows the relationship between Spidey and Johnny over the decades, with tons of nods to the original comics (there's even a Hostess Fruit Pies reference that helps to save the day!) and plenty of heart. It's one of my new favorite Spidey stories.

Reading Ultimate Comics Ultimate Spider-Man reminded me of that. I like how the art looks like screenshots from an animated movie.

Seeing most member's ignorance with Marvel gives me the incentive to work on yet another list.

I'm just wondering if I should go for a top 25 or lower, and to focus on Marvel in general or primarily the Avengers.

Do it. I wanna build up a comics backlog that doesn't just consist of Vertigo.

25, Marvel in general.

Avaitor

All right, top 25 Marvel stories here we go.
