—————————————————————————————

1776 #3 (OF 5) - Ok issue.  I'm not sure how our heroes are any better than Morgan Le Fay if they're going to be changing people's history. But that may be the point.

IRON MAN #1 - Hmmmm. I like it.  Tony's a little too "Robert Downey Jr" for me but it got better by the end.  I'm in.

Negation #3 - The plot thickens in such a good way.  Great issue as new characters are introduced. Fun series.

Sojourn #8 & 9 - Ha! I guessed the dragons secret and was happy I was right.  This story just got a lot more exciting!

2000 AD Prog 2469: Death of a Judge?
    Judge Dredd - good ending to the story arc. This was one of the better ones.
    Herne & Shuck - continues to progress and stay interesting.
    Judge Dee - an ok story moving along decently.
    The Discarded - Vera's starting to see the light.  I like this one. It's a litt slow but good.
  Tharg's 3rillers - Skipping

Jeff, looking forward to your thoughts on Firestorm. We'll agree to disagree on Iron Man. LOL.

My son graduated from college over the weekend and I missed FCBD for the first time in 20 years. I am sure my LCS has leftovers.

Booster Gold (2007) #1, 6, 9... eBay purchase to fill a few holes.

More to come after Wednesday's trip to my LCS.
