New Comic Day + Work Foo

[newnumber6]

This week I got a whopping 11 books:

Astonishing X-Men #11 (still not thrilled with the main plot, but there's a really nice moment that makes the issue worth it)
Batgirl #66 (bit of a weaker issue than usual, disappointing)
Birds of Prey #84 (fairly good, nice character moments)
Cable & Deadpool #17 (again a bit of a weaker issue than I'm used to)
Daredevil #75 (not bad, better than the early part of the arc anyway)
Exiles #67 (Reasonably fun, if a little silly in premise)
Ex Machina #13 (enjoyable)
House of M #4 (actually quite enjoyable)
Robin #140 (not bad, some interesting aspects)
Teen Titans #26 (not fond of these types of stories)
Ultimates 2 #7 (Wow. My pick of the week).

Full reviews of course at http://www.unreachablestar.net

For lunch had a Whopper again.

Work was okay, regular delivery guy on vacation so the new guy was later than usual. But it let me read some.

Also, RIP James Doohan, TV's "Scotty". :(

That's a bunch of comics. I haven't collected comics since 1987; at that time I was spending about $100/month on the damned things. Don't ask me where the money came from. >_>

(I found you on FFF, hope you don't mind being added to my flist.)

No problem, I added you back.

And yeah. I stopped collecting sometimea round 1990, and then started again in 2000. They pulled me back in.:(. I'm a little afraid to calculate exactly how much I spend on comics because I don't know where the money comes from either. ;)

Luckily though, this was a particularly big week, I average about 6 a week maybe. :)

Oh, I know exactly how I paid for my comics, I just don't want to say.
