I think I might have mentioned how I've been doing a read-through of James Robinson's Starman series, so forgive me if this is a bit of a repeat, but I'm so backlogged on reviews and have been trying to sort through so much that it seems to be a blur of "Did I do this? …

All-Nighter
So I have this pile of comics on my guest room dresser that's all independent-label stuff that I've already read. But in curating my collection (i.e., going through what I've already read and deciding what to keep), I feel like I need to reread a number of them in order to make a full decision. …
The Essential X-Men Vol. 5 and Vol. 6; The Essential X-Factor Vol. 1
I took a break from my X-Men read-through for a little bit so that I could focus on some of the smaller trades that I had as well as some books and newer stuff I got for Christmas, which seems to be the way to go with these read-through projects (see also: Titans, Star Trek, …

Titans Together Again
So I went back and checked and it seems that I haven't written about my Titans read-through project since January 31, 2021 when I reviewed the second volume of the trade paperback reprints of the Wolfman-Perez stories. Since then, I've made my way through all of the trades that were available and then through the …
The Week in Uncollecting, 1/9/22-1/15/22
Wonder Woman by Phil Jimenez Omnibus. I've had this one for a while, and it pretty much put a button on what I wanted to own as far as Wonder Woman was concerned (though I do want to read Greg Rucka's run on DC Infinite). Jimenez's run on Wonder Woman was one that I read …
The Week in Uncollecting, 1/1/22-1/8/22
First week of the year, and I've got a few longer hardcovers and books, and a lot of time in the Eighties. Here we go! DC Through the '80s: The End of Eras and DC Through the '80s: The Experiments. These were on my wish list for a while and I got both for Christmas, …
The Week in Uncollecting, 11/21/21-11/26/21
With more than half the week off, I've actually been able to do a little bit more than watch just one movie, and while I wanted to start another book, I opted for reading all trade paperbacks and graphic novels while also making my way through some of the stuff I've saved on DC Infinite. …

Contagion
When the COVID-19 pandemic took hold in the United States in March 2019 and we all went into a lockdown, Steven Soderbergh's Contagion jumped to a top spot over various streaming platforms. I didn't choose to watch it then--I opted for Netflix's Tiger King (which, coincidentally, dropped its second season yesterday)--but I made a point …
The Spooks in Uncollecting, 10/31/21
Again, it's been a while since I have posted anything, but seeing as it's Halloween, I thought I'd write about the spooky/horror stuff that I've been clearing out of my lists lately. Now, I'm not a huge horror fan. I dabble in some movies and books throughout the year and like to read at least …
Films in Brief, 9/1/21-9/21/21
Time Warp: The Greatest Cult Films Ever Made Part 2, Horror and Sci-Fi and Part 3, Comedy and Camp: I enjoyed the first parts of this and was eagerly waiting to watch the other two. Part 2 is the gem of all three because of its focus on genres that for years were on the …
