I've got some oldies (Preacher, the rest of Cerebus and Sandman, a fuckload more) still on my reading list. Sadly, the only current title I'm reading is Transformers. I'd love to be reading more, but it's tough to get into (and stay into) hippie X-Men burning their registration cards, Spider-Man striking a deal with the devil to make the bus driver forget he didn't pay every time he doesn't have bus fare, and Batman and Superman doing who the fuck knows what to tie into the current massive universe-shattering crossover (three years in, only six more to go!).

I do still have plans to get Invincible and Savage Dragon in the big omnibus editions. I just haven't yet.

I'd like to read Punisher, too. It's annoying that a few of the collections are OOP. I don't consider it "current" exactly, since it's confirmed Ennis is going bye-bye and probably Fraction will take over that one. (Is he the fucking Nicieza or Lobdell of the present day, writing every damned book for Marvel and actually doing well on maybe one or two?)

Mrs Anarky wants The Dark Tower paperbacks for some reason. She didn't want the hardback. She said--and I tend to agree--that it kinda defeats the purpose of a collection if it's shrinkwrapped so you can't look through it.

Too bad he isn't around too see how much DD rocks.

Sweet fucking Jesus, tell me that is just a rumor. Fraction writing Punisher Max will kill it.

Sorry, m'man, I meant the "probably" to indicate I was switching to random speculation (based on his being announced as writer on like twelve series in the past week), but, reading it in your quote, I see it's not very clear.
