been really into graphic novels again recently,
read dmz 1-4, the walking dead 1-6 (on 7 now)
and just last night read "Wanted" and it was pretty damn rad.
I just started reading The Walking Dead, and Im nearly done with the first book. I must say it is fantastic. A friend suggest that I read it after he found out that I greatly enjoyed zombie movies. I guess Ill have to make a trip up to the Laughing Ogre to get books 3-8. The kinda cute comic nerd girl seemed quite shocked when I told her I hadn't been in a comicbook store for nearly 12 years. I may be a geek, but I stopped reading comics when it got to expensive for me to keep up.

What is this DMZ you speak of?
I have also been told that there is another one called The Boys that is about superhero police or something. The description is a little fuzzy from last night, I had a few Blue Moons when my friend was telling me about it.

Walking Dead is amazing... My public library had the first 5 collections... Then I went to barnes and nobles and read the next couple sitting on the floor (my SO was reading a book about shoes at the same time)...

The bible, actually (new testament). I'm planning to read Dante's Inferno and I want to get some of the inside jokes
I'm still working on Inferno (in the 5th circle), but it seems to me like most of the details are from mythology and Florentine history--mostly Dante's contemporaries. There's quite a bit of stuff from epic poetry like Iliad and Odyssey too. I'd recommend a copy of Inferno that has a lot of detailed footnotes. (I got one from Barnes & Noble, I think it was their own edition, that I like pretty well.)
Good luck! You gonna read Paradise and Purgatory too? _________________ "A government big enough to give you everything you want is strong enough to take everything you have." -Pres. Ford

Let's see, finally got The Walking Dead 8, and for everyone reading that hasn't gotten to it...um...fucking crazy. You'll see why.
Also reading "The Gun Seller" by Hugh Laurie (yeah, House) and it's pretty good. I keep reading some and then not reading for a while, but it's certainly interesting and funny in quite a few parts, only tough thing is when he starts using british slang or places around london.
Also, why the hell is this thread in anything goes and not talky talky? _________________ http://www.jeremyhalvorsen.com
