May 2009
Comics of note (Strongly recommended or better, usually) will be in
boldface, with an asterisk if they're Strongly Recommended. While
most of my reviews are spoiler-free capsules, the occasional full review will
be underlined. For non-comic or otherwise "not available at the comic
shop" stuff, there's the "Other Media" category, in purple text. Books I got after their theoretical release
week for whatever reason will be in italics.
