    Man, Trees was not an interesting book at all. Had to put it down about 3/4 of the way in.

    That was totally my thought with it. I kept waiting for it to get good, or for something to happen, and it just never did.

    @alexstolar hyped it up so much. What a let down. I think he owes me lunch.

    Definitely sounds like the easiest solution. I started one for my books as well but that one will take a lot longer to type up hah.

    The wife hates that I'm reading these in bed ha, these lights on aren't going to work. Seriously considering purchasing future comics on the iPad. I know I asked earlier and most people said they buy physical copies, but does anyone read these digitally?

    I read the first trade, but not one I'll keep buying.

    I do a mix. Digital is really convenient, and my iPad + Comixology makes it so wonderful. Some comics I just want the physical copy of -mainly Image books that I love, like Deadly Class and Saga.

    I loved Wytches. Everything I've read from Snyder has been great.

    I hope we get the second story arc this year. Wytches is fantastic.

    I've seen or heard this sentiment so many times, I'm going to have to take the recommendation. I normally don't go for non-hero graphic novels or comics (maybe aside from Blankets), but this may add to that list, so thank you!

    I liked it a lot, but it is slow. @Henry Popeye's is on me.

    I do, probably alot more now actually because they are cheaper if you wait a few months. The panel view reading is nice.

    I believe it was confirmed that we will be. I was concerned about it too because Snyder is DC Exclusive now, but it sounds like that won't affect his indie books.

    Wytches hasn't been on any of the solicits, but I think we get it in August or so.

    Have you read any of the Snyder/Capullo Batman yet?

    I read the Superheavy arc last week since I had a review copy. Been meaning to get to it from the beginning so I figured I'd grab it with an Amazon gift card I had.

    If this is your first read-through, you are in for a serious treat. Word of advice, definitely buy City of Owls asap. You're going to want to roll right into after finishing.

    Yeah. I would almost say the first three trades should be read straight through. The arc after that is basically its own thing. The only one that kinda felt like a dud was the sixth trade. Wasn't into it much at all.

    Read Low if you get a chance. It's another Sci-Fi book from Remender that is really gorgeous. A lot of people love Tokyo Ghost too but it isn't my cup of tea.

    I'm hoping to get the others soon. Between jobs though so I'm trying not to drop a bunch of money to complete it right away. I do have some other comics I could just read in the meantime until I can get the rest so there's that at least.

    I actually forgot all about the issues in volume 6. That's the only one I don't own. Not really a fan of that "arc."

    Only the second one I've reviewed, but my Cyborg review can be found here. Writing these is definitely a lot different than doing album reviews as I'm used to. Hoping to improve on it some more.
