May Day! May Day! What is it?

As always - there are no real rules - just keep a list of what you read - singles or trades or whatever. I bold the top 5 or 6 books and pick a "winner" each month, but that's just me. I'm amazed at how much I've read this year already!

Above all - Have fun!

    Thumpity bump.

    I haven't updated this thread for my reading in a while. It's all covered in my 52 thread. My usual weeklies are on the most part falling behind because of this... I'm beginning to understand why some are missing the pre-new 52 universe so much!
