Superman Smashes the Klan. Saw it on the shelf, saw it was cheap and it is now my favorite Superman story I’ve ever read along with All-Star, For All Seasons, and the new Supercorp run.

The Marvel Stephen King The Stand Omnibus was a hugely discounted blind buy, and it ended up being a pretty great read, with excellent Mike Perkins art. I think it is long OOP, and, i sold my copy on for a good price.

Love your videos! I bought FF by Matt Fraction because of your video (first one I ever saw from you). And I loved it to death. I’d call it a flawed masterpiece, because FF was amazing, the Fantastic Four side was a bit janky at spots, but together, what a fun read

I'm new to comics and I gotta say you're channel is one of the best comic channels out there every time I watch one of your videos I add several books to My already way too long list. Btw have you read Jack Kirby's Fourth World and if so can a new Reader dig into it without any Prior knowledge (I mean of course I know who the New Gods are and I have a pretty good amount of knowledge about the DC Universe/Multiverse, but still)

@@its_shoot2876 wow thank you so much! I love trying to create content with newer readers in mind when I can :) There’s so much content out there it’s nice to get recommendations here and there 😉 Thanks for watching! To answer your question: No I have not read Fourth World. It’s kind of always been on my wishlist someday as I do love Jack Kirby and it’s his opus at DC. I know a lot of people who love that stuff but I cannot speak to it directly. I think if it interests you and you are open to older comics go for it! I also try to give a heads up to those who maybe only read modern comics that sometimes golden, silver, early bronze can read Very dated and overwordy. Ha But yeah I say if you’re interested dive in!

Hey man! Are you planning anything for disability pride month? Having a visual disability myself, I think tying into things like that could raise appreciation for it. Maybe a list of great books with disabled heroes? Or even a Daredevil video.

You're poiNt on the Fraction run of FF bring under rated and spoken poorly of seems to be a common issue with fraction's other runs too. I am a few issues from ending his Thor omni and it really surprised me and was much better than I had anticipated. It started a little weak (imho) but picked up really quickly and is showing to have a really strong end. Great blind buy list and another great video.

I think this is a fair point as well. I find myself enjoying most books I read from fraction! That Thor book was fun, my first Thor Omni I completed. Reviewed that one on the channel a few months back. Have you read his invincible iron man run?
