I started here when I was reading a comparative read between Marvel Silver Age (what I owned) and Valiant of the Nineties. When Valiant re-launched in 2012, I started reading and comparing VEI Valiant to Marvel New Universe. Finished that about two years ago. I began recording a monthly Valiant podcast - tried to keep on task with my blog, but that slowly died away. I did complete a read-through of all classic Valiant (and Acclaim) comics, as well as a slow catch-up with current Valiant comics, too. Back on track and finished the Silver Age. Finished reading (and reviewing) the Ultimate Comics. Started on one 2099 per day. Now finishing up the Bronze Age, and on to the Modern (where I started reading years ago...) Finally able to read some of the digital comics I acquired.
- and oh, yeah... Husband, Dad, and teacher. Sometimes in that order.
