Catching Up, Other End

The worst part about this weekend, of course, was that I missed Free Comic Book Day. How was it? Was there anything really awesome?

As far as "official" FCBD stuff, we didn't score very much. I think that the store we went to had two comics left - "The New Mutants" and one for the Green Lantern - "Blackest Night".

Now, the "unofficial" stuff we got was somewhat more fun. The store we went to took the opportunity to set out boxes of comic books that presumably were not selling. From those we got the first issue of "Magneto", another was an issue of "The Gear Station" (my wife bought it because it looked vaguely steampunky), and the first issue of "Jason and the Argobots" - because, well, it's Jason and the ARGOBOTS.

Also, my dad decided to participate and gave us a handful (about 20) of his old The Amazing Spiderman comics. My favorite cover: the Fantastic Four are around Spiderman, and he's saying "The FANTASTIC FOUR think I'm trapped! But they don't suspect my REAL POWER!" Makes me laugh.

WOW, I would love to see those old Spidermans. (Spidermen?)

Resurrection was better than expected, enough to make me go buy the $6 TPB. I haven't got around to the rest of them yet, but there are a couple promising looking ones in the lot.
