Former comic addict who's in recovery.
Got home to see a package of @ignitionpress.bsky.social books had arrived. I ordered these as soon as I knew these were live after SDCC. I'm looking forward to checking all these out. If you're curious, just over to their site and order the First Look book and see what they've got coming.

Ugh. I'm finding no joy in comics or sports cards lately. More stress in trying to collect than fun. I definitely need a break from thinking about either.

While I'll always be a fan of his comics, it was his kind gesture of giving up his room at the hotel at Heroes Con to my friends and I that got stuck in a room with one bed. He was the first comic creator I had ever met and remains one of my favorites. He will be missed.
Rest well Peter David. You shaped comics for so many of us. You will be greatly missed.

I looked on Ebay for @topcowofficial.bsky.social promo posters that retailers got over the years... wow! There's a lot! I want some to frame and hang in the home office. It's going to be hard to choose those first couple.

Very exciting. This has been such a great series from the very beginning. I'm shocked more people don't know about it.

Good morning! Another weekend has gone by, and another small addition to the reignited Superman collection. I really need to find a local shop that has a $1 bin of DC books.

I'm a little late posting these, but here's what I picked up from DC Comics this Wednesday. Lots of goodness left on the shelf, though.

In 2024, I decided I was going to read more Superman comics because I just hadn't been in years. In doing so, I expanded into back issues. When I did that, I opened up to DC Comics back issues. These are the books I picked up this past weekend. My DC collection went from 2 long boxes to 15 short.

I am in a place where I'd like to review and talk comics again. I've considered joining an existing site as well as reopening Comic Addiction. Maybe I'll just post a lot of thoughts here.

Chatter on here lately about comics journalism outlets disappearing. Real talk: it's because they are overextended and under appreciated.
If you regularly visit a website or listen/watch a show, stop what you are doing right now and comment, rate, review, subscribe, show them you care. It matters.
