Batman Eternal - Up to Issue 44 out of 44, caught up and now have to wait a week like everybody else. A week isn't so bad though. Its a good amount of time. Although I would prefer zero days. But whatever. This story is still cooking.

Squirrel Girl - #2 just came out this week and IT - IS - SO - GOOD. I want to get everyone I know a copy of issue 1 of squirrel girl because find me someone on this planet that wouldn't like this story. That person is a giant boring lame-o. Squirrel Girl is 100% likeable, funny, charming, awesome, posi, cool. All around a most excellent read.

Ant-Man -- #2 also came out this week and I'm still charmed by Scott Lang. Just one of those characters you root for even though if you knew him in real life you would probably be super annoyed at him all the time and think 'dude. get yourself TOGETHER MAN'. The art is really awesome, I like the scenes where he is changing size and you can see the progression of his body getting smaller. This issue hints that one of the older women characters might also be a superhero or something like that, I wonder if they'll expand on that further I'm super curious who she is supposed to be. I could also google that and get the answer immediately, so.....

Alex + Ada -- now on issue #8, but waiting on a copy because we are out at the store. !!!! Playing a waiting came. I am really interested in this story line, the concept of humans and AI on almost the same level. As much as I don't want to be a part of that in real life, I think its a really interesting concept to consider. Bummed that the story is coming to an end soon!

Letter 44 -- On issue #11 right now, also waiting for a copy of the next issue. Letter 44 is really rad. I still really like this story. Just want to read more!

Further Readings

Instead of doing individual things for each storyline again because I already have previously, just a note that I have read further in the following stories....

Saga - ALL CAUGHT UP AND IT SUCKS SO MUCH TO NOT BE ABLE TO BINGE READ SAGA ANY MORE. Seriously. It sucks. This story is so awesome and I am now pissed that I have to wait like 2 months for each issue to come out just like every other joe on the planet.

The Life After - Read the second issue of this story and still pretty down with it, I wish that I had more time to read everything that has been put out as of right now, it is a really interesting story. Kind of has a twisted Truman Show vibe to it, because it seems like there are big guys controlling everything from behind the scenes. Could get pretty good I think, would like to continue reading it.

Letter 44 - Damn. I wish I had more time to read this story, I am so down with it. I am now up to issue #7. Have debated waiting until the trade of volume 2 comes out but I don't think that is until June so actually I will have a really hard time doing that. The seventh issue seems like its going to start breaking down the characters more so we can really get a sense of who is on the mission and where they come from/background stories of all the main people.

Gotham by Midnight - Have now read up to the second issue which is good, I will say its good, but I don't necessarily think that I will keep reading it because there are too many other story lines that I am interested to keep reading this one. I understand the eerie vibe it is going for and can recommend the story to someone who is interested in that kind of scene but I don't really feel personally that I need to keep reading it for myself.

The Woods - Had only read the first issue of this, but have no read the first volume, so I'm not completely caught up but have read enough to know that I am into this story. The writing is catchy, the characters are likeable, the environment they are caught in right now is mysterious, and I am still wondering what the heck is going on enough to be interested in the story. Bit of a Lord of the Flies vibe meets Jumanji?

Batman Eternal - I HAVE TO GET CAUGHT UP WITH THIS STORY IT IS HURTING ME. I am now 10 issues behind the current one that was just put out, and desperately trying to catch up with this story while not completely disregarding every other comic/graphic novel/thing in my life. Its crazy good, and I am really needing to know every answer immediately.

Letter 44 -- Volume 1

It is inauguration day for the new President who learns through a letter from his predecessor a huge secret that has been kept from himself and the American people. 7 years ago, construction started in the cosmos by a group of alien beings. Unsure of what they are building, NASA sent a group of scientists out to learn more.

With construction almost complete, and the scientists nearing the spacecraft, the new president must now take over the role of responsibility not just for our nation but for the planet as a whole.

Much less political than I first thought, more sci-fi, thriller. Its super great! This is a story that I feel like most people would get down with, especially if it was a movie. Luckily though, it does exist, so we don't have to wait for it to be a movie, we can read it as a comic!
