Just ordered some New 52 trades. I read all the issue 1s of New 52 but got burnt out on comics right after and other Walking Dead I just stopped reading them since.

Ordered [ame=http://www.amazon.com/Swamp-Thing-Vol-Raise-Bones/dp/1401234623]Swamp Thing Vol 1[/ame], [ame=http://www.amazon.com/Animal-Man-Vol-The-Hunt/dp/1401235077/ref=pd_sim_b_2]Animal Man Vol 1[/ame], [ame=http://www.amazon.com/Batman-Vol-The-Court-Owls/dp/1401235417/ref=pd_sim_b_2]Batman Vol 1[/ame], and [ame=http://www.amazon.com/Justice-League-Vol-Origin-The/dp/1401234615/ref=pd_sim_b_4]Justice League Vol 1[/ame].

Might check out some others later.

Probably going to pick up a green lantern trade and action comics but first going to try out these. I stretched myself too thing with New 52 and the constant Marvel events that are going on. Probably going to pick up Deadpool and whatever issues show what X-Man has been up to since fighting the Dark X-Men.

Just got this huge ass ombinus edition of Osamu Tezuka's dororo. I was actually pretty surprised when i discovered this title because i had no idea that it was Osamu's work. It was a surprise because i had the PS2 game that was based on this and it prided of being based on some really important person's work. At the time i really didn't have any idea who Osamu Tezuka was but i remember wanting to get the book (yeah, i even thought it was a book instead of comic)

 

So now i have it.

 

Another thing i got was Alien Omnibus 3. I don't have the other edition's because i have heard that they are pretty shitty. This one other hand is supposedly fulled with really good stories that are actual horror instead of action.

 

But even if it isn't true it's okay because one of the stories is from Mike (hellboy) and that alone kinda makes it worth it.

The last two were stocking stuffers for the wife. She's fascinated by the Dr. Who/Star Trek one.

Shows you how out of touch with the manga scene I am these days -- I love the hell out of Genshiken (watching the anime again these days), but I didn't realize the series had started its continuation until yesterday.

I just went to a book shop to buy books for school, and while I was there I saw some book that caught my attention with its cover, and I started reading on the back and thought 'hmm'. It was in english, and I've never heard of or seen this book before. I wasn't gonna buy it, but my mom kinda talked me into it, said if I wanted to, just do it, and it was really cheap either way.

 

And that's how I bought a book I had no knowledge of whatsoever. It's called Insurrection by Robyn Young. Published in 2010. Hope it's good lol. Won't read it soon though, have bunch of other books to read.

I think i have a problem. I got several amazon orders at once today.

 

First box contained beautiful HC copy of a book that includes almost every work that Poe wrote. Before this i have only read "tell tale heart" so there's a lot of good stuff waiting for me. Second book in the box was not so good looking Gollancz copy of Patrick Rothfuss's "The Name Of The Wind". Been hearing a lot of good thing's about this one so definitely looking forward reading it. third and last book in the box was "Tales Of The Norse God's" which contain's streamlined version's of norse legends.

 

Second box contained Margaret Atwood's Oryx And Crake, Thomas Ligotti's "Teatro Grottesco", Arkady &Boris Strutgatsky "Roadside picnic" and Cormac McCarthy's "Blood Meridian".

 

Last but not least. Last box contained Ryunosuke Akutagawa's "Rashomon and seventeen other stories"

Been trying to beef up my graphic novel collection and so far i have gotten three new pieces this week.

 

First i got Miller's "Dark Knight Return's" which i liked and today i got Moore's highly acclaimed "Watchmen" and "V For Vendetta".

 

Also got "Rocket girls" and "Slum's Online" because i needed something wacky for a change.
