I used to have all of both of those...a very long time ago.
Yeah, I had all the Freak Bros comics too, but people would borrow them and not bring 'em back...or just spill stuff or whatever by accident if we were having a bit of a sesh
I think if they could choose, that's the way Freak Bros comics would like to go out...death by stoner
Just finished a reread of the hobbit and started to read The Way Of
Shadows by Brent Weeks.Book 1 in "THE NIGHT ANGEL" trilogy.
The Hobbit ROCKS!!!!!
I have no faith in human perfectability. I think that human exertion will have no appreciable effect upon humanity. Man is now only more active - not more happy - nor more wise, than he was 6000 years ago. - Edgar Allan Poe
Bunch together a group of people deliberately chosen for strong religious feelings, and you have a practical guarantee of dark morbidities expressed in crime, perversion, and insanity. - H.P. Lovecraft
Just finished Neverwhere by Neil Gaiman. That was my first Gaiman book, and I quite enjoyed it.
Next up, I think I might start The Terror by Dan Simmons. And maybe Vol 1 of The Sandman.
Only the gentle are ever really strong.
I'm reading Laurell K Hamilton's Merry Gentry series.. I am on the second book now.

I'm reading Erec Rex: The Dragon's Eye, by Kaza Kingsley. It's a young adult book (recommended to me by my 12-year-old grandson). It's not the best.

So it goes.

Just finished The Double Bind by Chris Bohjalian (thumbs up!) and am now doing a reread of Four Past Midnight.

The Waste Lands by Stephen King
Finished my re-read of Robert Jordan's 'Wheel of Time' series - all 11 Books of it. - Good as it ever was!
Now reading Christopher paolini's third Inheritance book - 'Brisingr' - Not a bad little series, but god the writing is very immature in places (and it seems to me, worse in this third book than in the other 2?)
(Re)Reading Vonnegut's God Bless You, Mr. Rosewater.
I just finished that. Loved it.
Madame De Stael: The First Modern Woman, by Francine Du Plessix Gray
What I talk About When I Talk About Running, by Haruki Murakami
Rimbaud: The Double Life Of A Rebel, by Edmund White
I still need to read most of Gaiman's novels, but I would recommend Stardust. The movie was good, but the book is oh so much better. Great read.
Volume one of Sandman is great, especially the very first issue. I've said it before and I will say it again, one of the very best comics I have ever read.
(If you read Sandman and wind up really liking it, I would also recommend checking out Fables by Bill Willingham. The first graphic novel is titled Legends in Exile.)
Good choice!

So if you had a twin you'd want him to have a name that rhymes with yours? Would you guys dress the same as well?
I'm slowly coming out of my reader block. I'm about 100 pages into Black House.
Lalalalaaaa, lalalalaaa

Good to hear Maer, and Black House is a good book to sink yourself into to get back into reading regularly.
Just started reading His Dark Materials today. Only two chapters in, but it's a start. And I'm already seeing differences with the movie....
