After many years of not collecting I've returned to collecting Comic Books again. I'm collecting mainly DC Comics with the upcoming Hawkeye series from Marvel. I really enjoy The Savage Hawkman, Justice League Dark, G.I.Combat & Suicide Squad...
I'm going to collect the Batman the Dark Knight book, this title looks pretty cool and the new story-arc with the Scarecrow is wickedly wild...
I'm getting GET JIRO a Vertigo graphic novel by Anthony Bourdain from the Travel Channels No Reservations. Get Jiro is set in the future where Chef's in LA have turf wars and Jiro the main character is a Sushi Chef...

Cool. Comics are hard for me, because I just can't add another hobby back into my life. With football starting (coaching not playing), all my other hobbies will slow down as it is.

I don't collect anymore. Ever since I stopped working in a gaming and comic shop I really haven't pursued the hobby.

I just wrapped up reading Captain Atom #10 & The Savage Hawkman #10 and both were very good. Captain Atom I really like, but there is no audience and the book has been cancelled. My latest order is coming this week and GET JIRO is in the order and I'm looking to see this book...

Get Jiro sounds neat. Let me know how it is. I might look into picking it up if it gets good recommendations

I might look into picking it up if it gets good recommendations Where I get my books from had two copies which are hardcover copies and sold both, they had to reorder my copy. I should have my copy of Get Jiro tomorrow. Anthony Bourdain was at this years ComicCon and promoted the book. I'll give a recap on the book once I've read it...

I read GET JIRO and it's a really good and off the wall story, but it really captures some cool Bourdain thoughts. If your looking for Blood and Foul Language in a Comic Book, pick this one up and I like the art by Langdon Foss. For those who follow Anthony Bourdain, one word that'll appear in GET JIRO is Karaoke that'll make you laugh...
I read the 1st issue of the New Hawkeye comic and it's different but I really like it so far. Matt Fraction's story is cool and I honestly really like David Aja's art, very cool book...

I just got two more of April Hunter's comic books. For those that remember my getting in trouble for saying they were available before just because they were considered porn, Code Red #2 has no nudity in it all. I got that and Stripper Viking #1. That one has a funny story but I thought the art was pretty bad. Code Red 2 is in color and looked better.

In a few days I'll have the back issues & current issues of the New Valiant line relaunch. I'm excited to read X-O Manowar and the other Four titles. Plus, Archie Comics have brought back the Red Circle Universe in the New Crusaders book. The Shield aka Joe Higgins as a old man mentors a young team from The Comet to Fly-Girl, I'm excited for this book too...
