Mike’s comments from the I Read Comic Books group.

Read Jughead #10 last night. I'm way behind on comics, but this one was a great way to end my night. Having just read The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, seeing Sabrina in Jughead is seeing her in an (expectedly) different light was refreshing. And the issue was pretty solid, too.

Thanks for checking us out, Heather! Glad you enjoyed the episode about The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina. Keep listening and let us know what you think!

Which West Coast Avengers are you reading? Got a link? I've only read a few random issues.

Ugh. It's a whole thing. Did you see her update on her blog?

Hey everyone! To give some love to this group, we're going to be talking about this book (and this group) on the podcast on Sunday!!

I'm currently reading this book, but I'm going to save my comments for the show.

If you have any comments or questions you'd like us to talk about on the show, please comment and label as "okay to discuss." (For those of you who have already made comments, I'll be sending you a message.)

Make sure you check out the next episode (Episode #90) on November 2nd!

Making my way through Sabrina, also swimming in the final volumes of the available English Bleach volumes....

Agh. I need to finish Snyder's run. I got through Graveyard Shift but haven't gone back to finish!

I am so behind on Arrow and Flash... Still...

UGH! Same here, Wayland. I was really liking that book.

And my thoughts...

Arrow starts tonight! :D

I have it in my head that I need to get through my backlist of trades (on top of binge-reading the Bleach manga because I'm a doof).

I read Disquiet which was a nice little anthology of stories. It's Van Sciver doing what he does well with comics: telling stories that are sad, somehow funny, and all-too-real.

And after putting off X-Men books for a few issues, I finally caught up on those. None of them are great, just "okay" and/or "blah," unfortunately

Season one of Marvel's Agent's of S.H.I.E.L.D. drags until about half-way through (when Captain America: Winter Soldier happens) and the whole story take a hard left turn changing the show in many good ways. I never got into season 2...

Hey Jen! Welcome to the group! Thanks for introducing yourself. :D

Pride of Baghdad is great, get some Kleenex ready for the ride.

Dang! That's a lot of stuff I've never heard of! Going to definitely have to check all of those out!

I'm mostly just excited for Luke Cage...

My favorite part about this first volume is how incredibly important Lucifer becomes to this whole series.
