What a week. Monday I got a ticket because I supposedly rolled through a stop sign. I honestly don't think I did and feel I am the victum of making this guys quota. Don't know how much its gonna cost me or if its worth trying to fight it. Tuesday I was an hour late for work because the large draw bridge is under repair, the small bridge has to raise for everything, and our city government is full of crooked retards.
On a brighter note I have been pleasantly suprised to find that my local liabrary has a very nice selection of graphic novel collections. DC, Marvel, Image, Dark Horse, Vertigo, and a lot of indepent stuff and Manga. The works of note being Alan Moore's League of Extrordinary Gentlemen; Black Dossier, Osuma Tezuka's ; The Book of Human Insects, and Marvel's RunAways. I highly recomend all of these if you can find them.
I am officailly taking a break from Borderlands 2. I got everyone but Zero and Krieg to lv 61 and have decided to its time to play something else. Which has created a whole new delima. What to play? I have poked around on both Dragon's Crown and Tales of Xillia and they are both really cool. But I have little bugs whispering in my ear " you havn't finished Tales of Graces yet! You should play through the Mass Effect games again!, No you need to go back and finish Persona 4! Mario Golf! " Its really rediculous I know, but I'm totally overwhelmed by the most trivial of situations here. And then to top all that off a friend of mine is letting me barrow his copies of Black & White 1 and 2 for the PC.
Oh well, tonight I'm not playing anything. Just watched the final episode of Trigun, only took me 14 years to finaly see how it all ended so I'm tired and think I will just crash early tonight.
Read any good comics or books you would recomend? And am I the only one who feels like their backlog is akin to a pit of quicksand? Thanks for reading, Laters!
I'm reading Dr. Strange & Dr. Doom: Triumph & Torment right now and it's pretty darn cool. It just got rereleased this week. It originally came out in '89.
whoah that book looks awesome!
Gonna have to track this down, I'm a big fan Mike Mignola.
I read some more today and it's just getting better. Strange and Doom team up to face Mephisto! Also, even though Mignola is credited as a penciler and did the front and back covers and not the writing, it's starting to feel like a Mignola book to me.
Sorry, but I do not have much in the way of suggestions. The last time I read any comic books was a couple of years ago. I read the 6th trade of Transmetropolitan. I still have the 5th Sandman trade and The Goon volume 1 and The comical tragedy of Mr Punch sitting on my bookshelf untouched.
Nice recomendations, I have actually read all the Sandman and Transmetropolitan books as far as I know, really good. I know of the The Goon and Mr Punch but never read them. I have to keep an eye out for them.
I have received a few tickets for a rolling stop myself. They are pretty bs tickets. I would have to say you can't go wrong with a Tales game.
The real stickler is that I have not had a moving violation in over 10 years, the guy could have let me off with a warning.
Even though there totally independant stories I feel like I should finish Graces before moving on to Xillia, silly I know.
I know the backlog feeling. Sometimes there are so many choices that you can't pick anything lol.
The library where I used to live had a great graphic novel section. I read a bunch of Batman novels, like Year One and The Dark Knight Returns. Pretty well-known stuff.
Can't go wrong with Batman for the most part. The branch near my house is small so their collection is modest but very diverse, gonna have to check out the main branch, have heard it pretty impressive.
Rolled through a stop sign, eh? Yeah, probably crap for a ticket quota.
The real kicker was he took off as soon as he gave me the ticket and when I start to pull out this guy comes ripping around the same corner and does not even slow down much less stop. No justice man.
