Time’s flying by at a seeming all-time record pace. There’s simply too much to do and not enough time to do it. During the holiday bustle, let's try to not forget our true loved ones — comic books. Yes, the office party might be fun, and spending time with your family is important, I guess, but comics need your love and attention, too. They give so much joy to us throughout the year, now’s the perfect time to let them know how much they mean to us. Read more comics.
The Rules
Log everything you've read this year. Just edit your existing post or you (and we) will get confused trying to keep up. At the end of each month, I'll start a new thread and you can pick a "winner" from your favorite books. You can focus on just trades, or just write about the good stuff you've read.
