It's less than twenty-four hours before the comic book stores open up for Free Comic Book Day. I'm planning on going over to Wyldstar sometime early tomorrow to check things out and see what's up for grabs. As far as I know, Wizards of the Coast will have a Dungeons & Dragons comic book, and there will be some of the standard fare, as well. Y'know, things like Spider-Man, Star Wars and a shitload of superhero books from all of the major publishers.

After reading the first five issues, I think I'm going to drop Transformers: Generation One from my reading list. It's just not capturing my interest. As it stands now, I think that basically means my regular titles are Conan, The Punisher, Superman/Batman, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Tales of the TMNT and G.I. Joe: Reloaded (although I must admit I wasn't impressed with Reloaded #4 -- oh well, not every issue can be dynamite, but I think the ease at which the Joes got out of their current predicament was pretty lame).

Perhaps I should concentrate on reading graphic novels or series collections instead of trying to find more on-going series to read. I have been thinking about checking out some of Marvel's Essential series, after all, and I've really enjoyed what I've read of Cerebus so far (haven't started reading High Society yet, but I will soon).
