January 30, 2011 12:02 pm @kennyg  I have to agree with @Rickets3000 - try it before you buy it. I bought the trade because I love Shakespeare (I also majored in English and now I teach it to 15-year-olds) and couldn't find the single issues. I tried to read it, but I ended up putting it down about half way through and have no desire to finish it.

January 30, 2011 11:54 am I'm not real big on motion comics, but I would watch the heck out of this fan-made live action version: http://vimeo.com/19119108

January 27, 2011 3:38 pm Emma is my favorite Austen novel! I've loved Marvel's other adaptations, but this one looks even more amazing. So excited to pick up #1.

January 24, 2011 9:26 pm Nice poster! I'd like to see a Bane one, too. I'm pretty meh on Anne Hathaway as Catwoman, but I have faith in Nolan.

January 24, 2011 9:22 pm I was just going to get NY5, Action Comics, and the Jack of Fables trade, but after reading the above comments, I'll be adding Teen Titans and Zatanna to the list as well.

BQ: I'm in Georgia, too, so there's not much cold weather to speak of. I have to wear a hoodie in the morning (as I'm driving to work before dawn), but that's about it. I miss the snow.

January 24, 2011 9:06 pm Although I haven't read either magazine in years, I'm more upset about ToyFare shutting down than Wizard. I'll miss Twisted ToyFare Theatre.

January 24, 2011 8:58 pm I'm not up on my comic book history, so I have no idea if the ones sold during my birth month (Nov '80) were notable or not. The one that caught my eye was Jonah Hex #45 - apparently he got married this issue?

Also: four different war comics with Joe Kubert covers.

January 17, 2011 3:41 pm @gobo Thanks for the labels. Too bad I only know about half of those names. Off to Wikipedia...

January 17, 2011 3:18 pm Doctor Who, Supergirl, and Buffy. I'm really excited about Wednesday, because a semi-local shop is having a Buffy birthday party! And Georges Jeanty will be there!

BQ: I'm currently reading A.J. Jacob's The Know-It-All, but it's less autobiography, more "this guy is writing about what it's like to read the Encyclopaedia Britannica and I actually find it very interesting."

January 17, 2011 9:46 am Congratulations, guys!
