Arrived today: Daniel Clowes’ The Death Ray. Clowes is a genuine legend!

Boule et Bill. Alice read what sounds like every volume of this when she was a girl. Bought this for her after talking about the comic a few weeks ago. Delightful one page stories. Colouring is joyful.

Love this cover for lastest issue of Colonel Weird: Cosmagog.

Battlestar Galactica novelisation. 99p find on ebay. I read this when I was 9. (I’m reluctant to re-read because I simply know it won’t be as good as I remember).

Finally! Micronauts vol 1 #59.
Taken about 5 weeks to arrive from Canada. It’s the final issue of the first volume and the final issue I needed to complete my run of all Marvel’s Micronauts (though not strictly true: I’m on the lookout for the special editions which reprinted the first 12 issues).

I’m reminded how good Tyler Crook’s art is in Colonel Weird: Cosmogog. Time travel, aliens and a little boy who’s always been an outsider.

Finished rebagging the entire Micronauts run. Missing #59, the final issue of the first series and #51 has damage to the cover. Now going to do an issue-by-issue close read (no, not tonight, over the next while). #micronauts

Thank you @getreadycomics. This week’s comics arrived super-fast! Really appreciate it, wish you the best over Lockdown and hope everyone is getting their orders online to help you out.

Received this today: The Sandman Deluxe vol 1. I read Gaiman’s Sandman in the late 1990s and haven’t reread since. The deluxe edition is great - very similar to the Fables ones - with the exception that the dustjacket has a fake “sticker” on the front advertising the Audible series. From my point of view, it makes this edition look cheap (and it’s not!).

Jan and Soren. We went for a long walk today aiming to get to Chartwell and back to Westerham but got a little off course.

“Of all the tales told on these islands, few are as strange as that of William Palmer...”
New Pilgrim episodes by Sebastian Baczkiewicz beginning on Friday. Pilgrim is one of my favourite things ever! I’ll be listening to it as soon as work is over!

My re-read of Umbrella Academy has waited until vol 3 was released. Picked up Hotel Oblivion today so will start this week. It’s a long time since I read the original issues when they were released. I’m hoping the tv series hasn’t put me off Umbrella Academy as much as I think it has (the tv series is TERRIBLE!).
