Read the first 3 issues in the Blue Beetle Graduation Day TPB. Not bad. I am not the happiest with the color. Has that cheap computer look to it. But the rest of the art is decent.

Only drawback so far is some of the dialogue is in Spanish. And the only Spanish I know I learned watching hours of Lucha Libre on Galavision. So was google translating some word balloons.

Just finished Boy Maximortal vol 2.

Another 60 pages of the story from Veitch. Carries the story forward and had me going and ordering vol 3 once I finished.

The back matter is decent,got one story Veitch made for the Warren mags that got turned down and getting it's first printing here. Plus a series of 15 or so sketches of Sharon Tate.

I went to Desert Island Comics in Brooklyn on Sunday and asked if they had it, but it was sold out!

Hey good news but bad news! Hopefully they'll restock it.

Grabbed The Last Ronin and The Last Ronin Lost Years Hardcovers this month.

Then sat down one night planning on having a small dinner and reading an issue out of the first. 2 hours later I finished it and realized 2 hours had passed.

SPOILERS

Damn first off choosing Michaelangelo to be the surviving Turtle was perfect. Like how even though this feels to be set in the Mirage comic continuity there is one small thing that kind of tells you it isn't. More than worth the 15 bucks you cna find this for online.

Lost Years is a prequel and sequel to Last Ronin. Telling what Mikey got up to after his brothers passed. Adn what Casey Marie Jones is doing as the sensai of the new 4 turtles.As good as Last Ronin.

Pretty much as long as the quality stays this level I will grab each storyline as it hits hardcover.

Also worked my way thru a stack of Moonstone The Phantom comics. Years back got issues 1,2,3,16-26. So just missing the annual and issues 4 thru 15.

Decent stories in wwhat I got combined with good art.Not sure if I would have paid cover price but at a buck an issue made for some decent reading.

Was any of the Moonstone Kolchek stuff worth reading?

Got in Boy Maximortal issue 3 Friday. Read it today and about to go order issue 4. Sure there is a collection of all 4 issues out now. But the issues have back matter that isn't in the collection.

Not really sure where Veitch is going with this chapter of King Hell. But been on this ride since when did Brat Pack #1 hit?90 91? And just glad that he is finally getting a chance to finish the rest of the chapters.
