This past weekend was full of friends and sports (and a bit of comics). Friday I went to the Auto Show and with Patrick . We had a great time looking at not only all the sports cars, but also many new models a few of which I’m very interested in since Patty and I are in the market for a new car. Friday night I went out for a few drinks, it was my birthday after all. Saturday we celebrated Patrick’s birthday and we went over to Grandma’s for pizza. Sunday I watched the PGA and the X-Games. Sunday night I finally got around to reading two more Luke Cage stories out of the first Essential. The weekend went by too quickly. On with today’s links:
- Comics NOW! Magazine is out in stores. I blog about this because the Collected Comics Library is mentioned in a Comic Book Podcasting article by Derek Coward, Comic Book Noise
- Brian Cronin, CBR, has a blurb about Michael Fleisher’s new book about his Spectre series in Adventure Comics. Ever since the Spectre Archives, I’ve been fascinated by the character and his continuity throughout all of his series. This includes not only Jim Corrigan, but Hal Jordan and Crispus Allen, as well.
