Pulling inspiration from all corners of pop culture, Adam moves among topics ranging from the struggles of having a collector’s completist mentality to remembering Assistant Editor’s Month to the discovery of the amazing artists and writers who are guiding the industry today. Adam’s Deus ex Comica is a loving reference to the wonder and excitement that comic books contribute to popular culture at large. The details may be specific to one Midwestern boy’s journey from child to husband and parent, but it’s a truly identifiable chronicle of a pop culture junkie who has reawakened the long-dormant comic book fan within. 6540210 23 3 2009 Deus ex Comica: The Rebirth of a Comic Book Fan total:5|5:4|4:1| 5 24 6 3 4 0 false false Wed Apr 01 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Mon Apr 06 10:24:36 -0700 2009 Wed Apr 08 20:19:55 -0700 2009 1 more...]]> 5 0 false false Sat Apr 18 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Thu Apr 16 17:59:04 -0700 2009 Sat Apr 18 18:20:07 -0700 2009 5 0 false false Sun May 24 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Mon Apr 06 19:35:46 -0700 2009 Sun May 24 11:23:18 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Wed Oct 21 06:57:43 -0700 2009 Wed Oct 21 06:57:43 -0700 2009 5 0 false false Tue Aug 11 15:36:52 -0700 2009 Tue Aug 11 15:36:52 -0700 2009 5 0 false false Tue Apr 21 02:57:12 -0700 2009 Tue Apr 21 02:57:12 -0700 2009 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=6353613
