I read some comics today.

It’s been awhile since I bought some new paper books (see my query from this morning re: physical vs. digital media). So I did! Thank you, SecondSale Books.

I’m past halfway in this. Really good, but with all the disturbance of the racism you’d expect. Just amazing - then and now - how people can’t just be people. Adjectives are the worst thing going in human relations.

Puppers (My internal voice tells me: “You know this is one of those posts where some respondent is going to accuse you of forgetting or disrespecting some other canines, rather than just posting their own with “Cool! I like… x!”” Me to internal voice: “I know.” 😞

Digital or paper? Does your preference change if we’re talking comics or we’re talking prose? When I was sitting in front of a computer 4-5 hours a day, I yearned for the feel of paper in the evenings. Now, while I prefer paper, I’ve skewed to the digital side. It’s so easy, and easily portable.

When choosing that in which you’d like to invest a little eyeball time, would you say you generally go for material you’ve not read, or stories you have but it’s been awhile. And if you’re like me, those are sometimes one and the same! I’m thinking about my next reading queue, and it’ll have both.

This afternoon I got back into the Fantastic Four DVD-ROM files for issues 160-163 (1975). I vividly recall buying 161 off a magazine rack at a drugstore that was around 6 blocks from my house. I was 9, and rode my bike- across a busy 4-lane road -to the plaza. No way I’d have let our kids do that!
