I think 616 just retired the Hasseholf version and brought in his black nephew/son/whatever who is coincidentally also named Nick Fury
Huh
Yeah I mean, he does seem like he'd have a few love children running around

This is on Ebay for ten bucks, free shipping. Cover is a bit banged up, but it's a graphic novel from 1983 and it's full color. I'm probably gonna buy it.

Oh niiiiiiice

I remember I bought the old 06 DVDs of the OT that had the theatrical versions as bonus discs. I grabbed some weird special editions from WalMart that had reprints of (i think) these comics thrown in as well. They were a fun read.

Always rocks when you find an old print for a great price, very nice.

Finished reading Gantz. It was pretty good. Great character development with the main, side characters all got some fleshing out and weren't just relegated to the background. Art was nice looking, especially early on; there was a shift towards the end to way too much 3D/CG imagery though. I'd say about Ch 120-207 was the peak for me. Dinosaur fight was top notch.

And with that it receives the dubious honor of being the longest manga by volume, chapter and perhaps page count that I've read in two days, deposing SLAM DUNK, the reigning champ since 2020.

On the Star Wars series tonight, on book 42. Its really great, it covers a lot of stories and characters, some I didnt expect.

I got that 450 page reprint of the Weird Science and whatnot collection so that's next.

Bought my nephew a few Miles Morales Spider-Man comics for his birthday, first intro to the reading aspect of it. Hes 9 and loves the movies and shows, Into the Spiderverse is his favorite and he likes Miles the best. Not sure if he will read them or not but he seemed excited.

I think it's interesting, that Ra art on v10 was used for the Takahashi (RIP) Egyptian Gods, but I remember his Obelisk facing forward and his Slifer being in clouds..

Read Gigant. The fight scenes were awesome, plot was cool. I think the translators may have taken a little liberty with the dialogue at points, but otherwise, great manga.
Can't post any of the fights cuz of the whole "giant naked woman" thing but this made me chuckle

Still finishing the Witcher book, took a small break and read a few more of the SW series, it's really good with some excellent art.

Bought this tonight, the set with free shipping was only $8.41. Read them earlier in the year and it was probably my favorite series I read in 2022, if not among the best. It's a short hour read, amazing art and good humor, I just wanted to own the set.

35 volumes, about 6000 pages give or take a few hundred. Definitely better to read in short bursts than to go all at once. Maybe I'll pick it back up next year.
