newnumber6Big week this week. I got:
Batgirl #55 (Okay, but clearly part of a crossover)
Birds of Prey #72 (quite good)
Cable Deadpool #6 (surprisingly, this is a fairly good series)
Daredevil #63 (good, with a fun new villain)
Doctor Specrum #1 of 6 (ehh, okay, but a type of story I don't like)
Exiles #51 (Disappointing, I'm dropping the title as a whole but may pick up individual arcs that interest me)
Ex Machina #3 (good)
New X-Men #4 (good, better than last issue, art still sucks though)
Robin #129 (good, but I hope we get resolution within the own title and not part of the crossover)
Supreme Power #12 (not as good as usual for the title, due to 'gimmick')
X-Men #160 (decent, nothing spectacular but nothing really wrong either)
X-Men: The End #2 (actually turning out very good.)
Full reviews, of course, at http://www.unreachablestar.net.

Haven't done this in a while. First, last night, I had a 'Prisoner Dream', where I was 'in the Village'. Except, instead of Portmerion, the village just looked like normal city streets, except mostly deserted. Can't remember too much about it, but I tried to escape, of course.
Last night was a bit weirder. Apparently, in this dream, I'd taken a nap or something in the grass by the side of the road. But when I woke up, I had to get home... except, it was a long walk, and for some reason, my shoes were missing. The only person around was a girl waiting at a bus stop. I asked her if she knew what happened to my shoes, and she said she saw someone go off with them but didn't think anything of it, but she knew where they went, and she started to lead me. As she did, I noticed her bus was coming, and (in the way you sometimes just 'know' things in dreams) that the next bus wouldn't come for a long time, so I tried to warn her, she didn't mind. As we looked, we spotted some huge gloves, and I considered putting them on my feet just so my bare feet wouldn't get so hurt on rocks and such. I can't remember exactly how the search turned out, unfortunately.
An interesting aside to this... when I was very young, I used to have a recurring nightmare that I was walking home from school (or to school), and suddenly I noticed my shoes were missing. In this dream, an evil witch stole them. When I ran after her and demanded my shoes back, she said, no, and if you try to take them back, I'll eat you. So I'd always run away and wake up scared. Stupid, but remember, I was young. The dream stopped when, the last time, I just grabbed my shoes back and said, "Yeah, well, I don't care if you do eat me, you're not getting my shoes!" and walked off.
Damn witch, I hope she's not back again stealing my dream shoes and just hiding better! ;)
