More Comics This Week
This has been a good week for comics. Wednesday I went to the lcs to pick up some new comics, saw that they had like ten new long boxes in the dollar bin section which was awesome. I like that I am stalking this place enough that I can tell when they get new stuff in the dollar bin section. They had some Dark Horse Presents comics too which I'm glad I am able to finally see what those are like. New issues of them sell for $5 which is a bit too much and older issues sell for $8 which is ridiculous. $5 or more comics will be the one's that I will just wait for when they of course make it to the dollar bin.
What I got Wednesday:
New Issues:
Black Hammer #3 which was another excellent issue of Black Hammer. This is by far my favorite comic to be following.
B.P.R.D. Hell On Earth #145
Hellboy and the B.P.R.D. 1954: Black Sun #1 (of 2)
Dollar Bin:
Baltimore: The Play
Deadly Class #3
Deadly Class #5
Deadly Class #6
Dark Horse Presents #5
Dark Horse Presents #31
Dark Horse Presents #36
Saturday Dollar Bin Comics:
God is Dead #8 Finally get to see what this comic is like.
B.P.R.D. Killing Ground #5
Doom Patrol #52 92'
Frankenstein Underground #2
Frankenstein Underground #3
Stray Bullets #2
Stray Bullets #41
From Hell: Vol. 3

At the Comic Shop Saturday
I stopped at the lcs yesterday and got some good things. There were a lot of people there which was surprising. They had some type of card game going but there were lots of people looking through comics which was surprising.
New Releases:
Glitterbomb #1 which was really good. I am glad I picked this up after hearing about it from others. It will probably end up on my pull list if #2 is good.
Dollar Bin:
B.P.R.D. Garden of Souls #3
B.P.R.D. Garden of Souls #4
B.P.R.D. Garden of Souls #5
I also bought my first trade book. Black Science #1. I really liked the one later issue of Black Science that I read and so happy to get the first volume and start at the beginning. I've been spending a lot more time going through the books section but it's so hard to choose a whole book of something because I'm still new with finding series to follow and most of them are maybe newer things. Also, I really like floppies.

Comics I'm getting into lately.
I really loved 4 Kids Walk Into A Bank #1. Weird that the shop had one issue of that and #2 but nothing more. I plan on getting #2 Saturday. The kids remind me of a dirtier version of the kids from Bob's Burgers. I also like that I have no clue where this comic is going in terms of plot but the characters are awesome. One thing though is I am trying to find out more information about this comic and supposedly there are only going to be five issues of it? I forget where I got that number but I hope it's not just that few.
Also today I went to the library. I stopped going to the main library here because it's like the Walmart of libraries but I really wanted to see what kind of books they had about comic books and what kind of trades that they have and they do have a small selection. There is Wonder Woman and they even have Sleeper which is surprising. I picked up the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen Vol. 2 and the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen Century: 1910. I've been wanting to read more of Moore's stuff since I did actually like the movies of the Watchmen and V. LXG was okay but probably better in comic book form. They also had his series of Swamp Thing. I was hoping to get a book about comic books, something non-fiction-ish but there was nothing at all. I am glad I got to see what trades are actually like, they seem so much better than with the single issues with all the crap ads and I like the paper quality too. And omnibuses are just amazing, I didn't know they were of like an entire series. They had an Ant-Man omnibus and one or two other one's. I think I would still prefer single issue comics to trades but maybe for something out of print I would get a trade.
Also when I was at the comic book store the other day, I ran into a co-worker while I was checking out. Weird, usually there is no one even in the store, lol but we chatted a bit and did so more at work about comics. He said he mostly reads Marvel and DC with the exception of also Saga. We talked a good bit about comics and I told him that I've only been into them for a couple months now and he is going to write up a list of some recommendations which I'm curious about. I still haven't checked out much with DC or Marvel yet.
And I am really enjoying B.P.R.D. the Black Goddess. So happy that I was able to get all the issues from the dollar bins.

New Comics Today
I haven't been posting as much here lately. Usually I write about something once a day but this week has been kind of exhausting. Also, I love the comic books section on Reddit. I spend most of my time posting on there lately. It's the best place to talk about comics, find out about anything news-wise, way better than any websites that are supposedly devoted to that kind of thing, and there are all kinds of interesting discussions going on there. I have a link on the left with comic sites if you haven't checked it out yet.
I also stopped at the comic book store today. I am starting to get the impression that they don't like me, they are definitely not that friendly to me but I get that a lot around here. When I first walked in today, I heard some weird whispering right as I walked by a couple workers which was odd. I usually keep to myself though and maybe they think I am kind of creepy. I also added a few more to my pull list, Paper Girls, Hellboy, and B.P.R.D. Last week they said if I added three more I would be able to get a 10% discount and I was planning on adding those anyway but they said this week that I need to add three more to get the discount, lol. I didn't think I needed just three more because they said you need fifteen on your pull list for the discount and before the three that I added today I only had ten on my list. I'm starting to get bad vibes from this place, lol.
With the comics that I got today, I picked up Moon Knight #2 third printing. They also still had Hellboy and the B.P.R.D. 1953 #1 so I got that. I was also able to find some good copies of Deadly Class, Black Science, and Trillium in the dollar bins.
From the dollar bins:
Deadly Class #1 1987
Black Science #13
Trillium #1 I've been wanting to find more sci-fi stuff and someone recommended this and it's from Jeff Lemire.
Trillium #2

New Comics Today
I just got home from the comic book store. It's really difficult not stopping by on Saturdays. I am still looking for more comics to get into which is still kind of difficult a bit.
I got Sex Criminals #15. I had been curious about this and read great things but hadn't picked anything up until now. Hopefully it's good.
And I have been enjoying a lot of B.P.R.D. this week. I also like that there is a good amount of this in the dollar bins. I've been curious about checking out the Abe Sapian series but haven't yet.
Dollar Bins:
The Manhattan Projects #14 Curious about this comic.
The Manhattan Projects #15
B.P.R.D. #3 The Black Goddess
B.P.R.D. #4 The Black Goddess
B.P.R.D. #5 The Black Goddess
East of West - The World. I've been wondering about this comic too and found this here so I thought it was worth a dollar to check out.

Looking Forward to New Comics Tomorrow
It's almost Wednesday and I can't wait to get the next issue of Black Hammer finally. It feels like so long ago when the first one came out. Both covers look awesome but if I can, I will pick up Jeff Lemire's variant. I like the creepiness of it. I am also getting Once Our Land but the person at the store said it wouldn't be there until next week most likely. I'll probably also pick up B.P.R.D. #144. I haven't gotten any new issues of B.P.R.D. but like all the back issues I've come across so far.I'm also curious about Briggs Land #1. I like the idea of a comic that deals with people who are anti-government and set up their own space. Hopefully the main character/s are not authoritarian socialist types and more actual anarchist but I can't tell from the brief synopsis of the comic. It will be nice reading a comic that doesn't have the main character or group helping out a government or military department.
I asked some people on Reddit for some recommendations and with what people mentioned, Descender looks like something to check out. I also want to get more Paper Girls comics if I can.

Wednesday Comics!
Another good day at the comic book store. Today I got a short box to store my comics and I added Kill or Be Killed and Tank Girl to my pull list. They are also adding the next series of Tank Girl that is starting up soon after Two Girls One Tank. The person working there is also special ordering Once Our Land #2 from another New Dimension Comics store so I will most likely be able to get that as well. He said it will probably come in a couple weeks.
New issues that I got this week:
Wonder Woman #4 Frank Cho cover.
Doctor Who Twelfth Doctor #8
I also picked up:
The Boys #7
The Trees #2
And from the dollar bins:
B.P.R.D. The Warning #1
B.P.R.D. 1946 #5
B.P.R.D. The Ectoplasmic Man One-Shot
B.P.R.D. The Black Flame #2
B.P.R.D. The Black Goddess #2
Incognito #4

It's Almost Wednesday Comics Day!
I haven't been to the comic book store in a week. I haven't gone a whole week from going there since the first week that I started reading comics a little over a month ago. It's an addiction at this point but one that I am doing kind of well to not let it get out of hand, lol.
Comics coming out tomorrow that I am looking forward to...
Wonder Woman #4 - Continuing the story of Steve Trevor landing on Themyscira. I have been looking forward to reading more with this story line.
Doctor Who The Twelfth Doctor Year Two #8. I just found out yesterday that the newest season is not starting back this fall but sometime in the winter or spring. It sucks and I was really looking forward to it soon and love watching this show in the fall. Hopefully the comic helps with there being no new episodes but I also just hope this is a good comic worth checking out. And I like Peter Capaldi as the Doctor. There are all kinds of issues with the other Doctors at the store so hopefully there is a lot to choose from still.
Other things I want to find are some comics of the Boys, the Trees, maybe some more of B.P.R.D, and if there are still any Animosity #1's still at the store.
I also want to get a box to store my comics in. And I need to add a couple things to my pull list, Kill Or Be Killed and Tank Girl.

New Comics Tomorrow
Tomorrow is new comics day. I want to definitely get Tank Girl - Two Girls One Tank #3 and I want to check out Battlestar Galactica #1. The covers of Galactica look nice. I am always hearing how good this show is but still haven't checked it out yet. I remember seeing parts of the really old movie from I think the early 80's and hoping the comic book version is good.
There isn't much else from the list of things coming out tomorrow that I am wanting at this point but that will change when I am checking them all out tomorrow. I still want to find some good comics to follow. I read Top 10 #2 and #3 and will read #4 in a bit and like it. The quirkiness of it and how things are just all over the place are interesting. I am going to find the rest that were with those in the dollar bin last week and hopefully I can get all of them except for #1 which wasn't there. I also want to find more of B.P.R.D. and check out a couple of the newer issues if they still have them.
I also really liked Tank Girl - Two Girls One Tank #1 and want to find a copy of #2 somewhere.
I am going to not go over $20 or so but I am also running out of comics to read other than a bunch of Wonder Woman that I still need to read but I like having more of a variety to read from every day. And with Wonder Woman, I really liked the Convergence #1 issue and would like to find #2.

B.P.R.D.
I read the first two issues of B.P.R.D. and the first one wasn't bad but I really liked the second issue. The creepiness of the little person and them taking care of the monster that they found was so good. I really like what this comic is about and I'm going to start following this one and getting the newer issues. When I go to the comic book store Wednesday, I am going to pick up more of the back issues. I still haven't checked out Hellboy yet though and should.
And I am still trying to find good comics to follow. So far I really like Wonder Woman, Satellite Falling, Black Hammer, the Unbeatable Squirrel Girl, Bitch Planet, and B.P.R.D. I would like to find more super hero comics and it would be nice to find more that involves a group of people. I do like Black Hammer but that is it so far. Doom Patrol will be starting up soon and I hope it's good. I tried to find past issues of them but I really dislike the covers with how the women are shown on them. I hope it's not like that with this newest version.

Comics I Got Today
Today was a good comics day. I spent a good amount of time in the dollar bins. I was hoping to find some of the Unbeatable Squirrel Girl, Tank Girl specifically among whatever else but couldn't find any of those. One thing that was weird also was that they had no Tank Girl in the alphabetized section. Strange.
What I got today:
Tank Girl: Two Girls One Tank #1. Surprised they still had this since it came out in June and it was the only copy. They didn't have any other issues. I don't know if it comes out monthly or what.
Bitch Planet #4
In the dollar bins:
Convergence: Wonder Woman #1
B.P.R.D. #1. Still looking for new comics and thought I would check these one's out.
B.P.R.D. #2
B.P.R.D. #3
Spiral Zone #1. This was a random find for sure. I used to love this cartoon when I was little and surprised there was a comic about it. It was a really dark cartoon I noticed recently when I tried to find episodes online and it is odd that it was actually for children.
