Out of the Blue

We finally got the mad downpour I've been hoping for since our roof was repaired. Reassuringly, not a drop came through after a rainstorm that would have previously left me with a swimming pool in my office. This has also further helped the healing process on the lawn that was harmed by its exposure to the old roof, so with a green lawn and a dry office, we are happily putting the whole ugly ugly hole (in the roof) situation behind us.

Always been more of a DC fan; there seems to be less reliance on "hey, need a villian? have a mutant", and they reboot characters less often (well, with the exception of Supergirl, perhaps). They still fall to "ratings gags" though, like the female Robin, or crazy mega crossovers.

DarkHorse has some good titles - if anyone hasn't given a Hellboy comic a read (before or after the movie), it's worth a shot to dig out "The Corpse" or some other shorts. Quirky, good art, fun.

Then there's all the more independent shops or titles (Queen & Country, 100 Bullets, Planetary...) Comics Rock.
