my tbr is too damn much but I’m really enjoying getting back into reading. Starman is an old favorite and everyone should read the Robinson/Harris run from the 90s. I don’t consider myself a big marvel fan outside of the X-Men (am a DC girl who is patiently waiting for a Zatanna movie) but of course we are seeing the new Spidey this weekend.
this list has some books I’ve been eager to get to for a while that I haven’t gotten to because of time spent playing videogames instead. let’s be honest: as a working adult, videogames are almost worthless and a waste of time. 75% of my game purchases in the past 5 years have been disappointing. About 25% of book purchases have been a let down. the better medium is books, proven by science because I gave some numbers off the top of my head.
