Finally got the final IDW2 Transformers volume "War's End", so I have that entire continuity in hardcover. Looking at the contents, it collects Transformers #37–43, Transformers: War’s End #1–4, and Transformers: Fate of Cybertron which wraps it all up. I still hate that this continuity en...

Green Lantern #6 - Another good issue, even if I can sum it up pretty succinctly: Hal and Sinestro have a major fight, with some interesting incidents taking place when it comes to Hal's ring. Sinestro escapes Earth using the rage-powered ring (which is still his yellow ring). Hal can't follow. Raz...

I ran across another book I've wanted a copy of for some time: Batman from the 30s to the 70s. I have the Superman volume covering the same era, both were published in the early 1970s, a few years after the 30th anniversary of both characters I'd imagine. Back in the days before the comprehensive re...

Great find today: the alternate version of Batman 428, part three of "A Death in the Family", where Jason Todd survived. It's not that different from the original issue, maybe four pages and a few panels. Some of the narration around taking the body home is now about Jason's mom instead o...

Shazam #6 - "Meet the Captain" wraps up, and the solution to the problem of the gods who give Billy the powers of Shazam is not only fairly obvious once it's stated, but it references the Golden Age Captain Marvel concept of Billy and the Captain being two different people. There's the us...

Transformers #3 - Laserbeak tracks Carlie to Sparkplug's house, where he has to tell her that her father was killed by Starscream. Cliffjumper intervenes to help both humans, but Sparkplug is panickly and never once grasps that there are two different factions of giant robots. Skywarp gets some inte...

I finished up the Green Lantern: Kyle Rayner compendium. Like all of these thick paperbacks, there are a few instances where the art or lettering gets partially lost in the gutter, but overall I like this format because of just how much they can fit into a single volume. - After his adventures out i...

2001: A Space Odyssey (1968) - I had not seen this in years and years. My 19 yo daughter expressed an interest in watching it, so I checked a copy out of the library and we sat down to watch it last night. She thought it was really good, and appreciated the slow pace, and the fact that we were give...

The destruction of the Corps was a big reason I didn't read the last series beyond the first issue. We've seen that story before, several times, and I had no interest in reading it again. Yeah, that's one of the reasons I haven't been reading, other than to keep tabs from reviews and the like. Unfo...
