what I've been reading...

by request -- what I've been reading: first up, the wrap-up of Flash Rebirth... boo. I'll have to agree with my pal Gorde, "Read the last issue last night. Possibly the worst comic I've ever read in my life. I'd demand my money back if I wasn't 84% positive Jack would punch me in the face and then proceed to continue restocking his shelves. I'm not bitter.".


Punisher War Zone tpb -- Garth Ennis and Steve Dillon -- great stuff, as usual.


Spider-Woman, probably the best book you're NOT reading.


Ultimate Avengers #5 -- yes, thumbs up!


Bendis' New Avengers -- consistent goodness.


I'm still only lukewarm on The Marvels Project. still a good Golden Age fix.


Batman and Robin -- still loving this book. Grant Morrison!


went back and re-read the Mister Miracle (seven soliders mini) -- really enjoyed this the second time around... and it fits together really well with Final Crisis. yes.





Blackest Night Flash.... absolute piece of fucking shit. art, nice. story, abominable, horrible, etc. complete waste of time and money.


and a book without pictures! everybody's favorite serial killer... Dexter. this was the first novel in the series -- be warned -- it's very very similar to season one of the show. still good stuff.

books I've read...

what I've read lately (and by that I mean the past couple of months... I'm a slow reader!).


Carter Brown's "A Good Year for Dwarfs?".... breezed through this while in Florida. a thin little paperback - just plain nonsense... but I was loving it. just dime-store detective action from 1970! from the back cover:

Death is a Dirty Movie
Chicly clothed or buck naked, skin flick starlet Jodie Rimmel was one of the hottest properties around. Yet when she mysteriously vanished from the set one afternoon, only two people cared enough to find her -- Davis Davis, a movie dwarf with a giant income, and Gloria Staron, a hundred-dollar hooker whose feelings for Jodie ran thicker than blood. And Rick Holman, it seems, was working for both of them.

Yet the harder Holman dug for information, the more confused he became. For in that twilight movie world where sex is a game played for fun and profit, nobody was ever who they were supposed to be... dead or alive.


and another Chuck Palahniuk book that my girl recommended... "Survivor".

from amazon.com: "Starting at chapter 47 and screaming toward ground zero, Palahniuk hurls the reader back to the beginning in a breathless search for where it all went wrong. This time out, the author's protagonist is self-made, self-ruined mogul-messiah Tender Branson, the sole passenger of a jet moments away from slamming first into the Australian outback and then into oblivion. All that will be left, Branson assures us with a tone bordering on relief, is his life story, from its Amish-on-acid cult beginnings to its televangelist-huckster end. All of this courtesy of the plane's flight recorder."

both recommended as part of the Megatrip Book Club.

Chuck Palahniuk - Choke

my girlfriend bought me this book and told me I'd like it... I'm a notoriously slow reader, but I finished it up last week... and she was right. great book. recommended.

amazon: Victor Mancini is a ruthless con artist. Victor Mancini is a med-school dropout who's taken a job playing an Irish indentured servant in a colonial-era theme park in order to help care for his Alzheimer's-afflicted mother. Victor Mancini is a sex addict. Victor Mancini is a direct descendant of Jesus Christ. All of these statements about the protagonist of Choke are more or less true. Welcome, once again, to the world of Chuck Palahniuk.
