Woohoo, I just got Sisterhood of Steel #1 - #6 (all NM) today. :D

I already have #7, and now all I need to get is #8 for the complete run. :-B

Well, that was the most bloody depressing thing I have read in a while. Thanks Tenjen. :ymtongue:

Depressing? Yes. A well written and interesting little story? Absolutely.

I hadn't picked then up ealier than this because the art kinda turned me off at first. I blame Miss Gisele, she spoils us. :p Turns out they weren't too bad at all, a little strange and pretty quirky. I actually enjoyed them quite a lot, and I am glad I waited until the series was done to get them. Considering it looks like he did about one book a year that would have driven me nuts. Check it out, it didn't suck.
Soooo, I read them today too in preparation for the movie that might never come out here. 8-|

Lots of fun was had. I confess I was a bit sad that the relationship with Knives Chau did not keep long, after all, it reminded me a wee bit of my own only relationship. ;)) And she was so adorable and adoring, I want a girl like that. :)

Took a small break from my manga jag (Naruto, Shaman King, and Bobobo-Bo Bo-Bobo oh my!) to read an actual comic book.

Batman #704

Batman's the best of all time, period. Pick it up. If for nothing else than the awesome cover...
Anti-Yuki till the grave claims me...

Kid Kool (1988) for the Nintendo Entertainment System is GROSSLY underrated. Sure the concept could've been presented a little better, but it doesn't deserve the hate it gets in some circles.
