Books

Finishing up Dune by Frank Herbert. A Promised Land by former POTUS Obama is next.

Hit the jackpot at Goodwill, so Decision Points by G.W. Bush is in the queue alongside Bill Gates’ The Road Ahead and I Am America (So Can You!) by Stephen Colbert. All for under $15.😎

Poemz (to be read between books)

Snagged 5 or so 70-ish page poem collections by Woodsworth, Dickenson, Whitman, and a couple other well-known artists.

Comic Bookz (read between book chapters)

From the same store, I’ve completed my collection of Alan Moore’s run of Swamp Thing. That and J.M. DeMatteis & Jon J Muth’s Moonshadow are my in-between books readings. Picked up Moonshadow’s first issue in the 99 cent section... got hooked and ordered the hardback definitive edition.

Soooo, it goes without saying, still zooming through comics. Just finished Neil Gaiman and Dave McKean’s origin story of Black Orchid, Lemire/Smallwood/Bellaire’s 5-issue “Death and Birth” arc of Moon Knight, aaaannnd following the current run of Shang-Chi by Gene Luen Yang & co. in anticipation of Marvel’s release of said Supe on the silver screen. It will star a friend of the Wong Fu YT channel (Simu Liu) I’ve followed for 5+ years which is excitiiiiing. Also, Simu’s in Kim’s Convenience on Netflix if anyone’s into a light hearted comedy.
