Comics!

On the excellent advice of [livejournal.com profile] likeadeuce and [livejournal.com profile] settai I started reading X-Factor and I am through the first 5 TPB's and on my way through the 6th! ::loves:: I'm so glad the 7th is out now. Once I get my next coupon or gift card, I'm so buying it! I'm kinda debating moving to getting X-Factor on a regular basis instead of waiting for the trades . . . hmm.

I'm also LOVING S.W.O.R.D. - that I am reading as they come out. Agent Brand! Beast! Lockheed! ::loves::

I was able to get the Utopia hardcover 50% by using a combination of B&N coupons, so I'm halfway through that - quite awesome! (I'm too lazy to put in a cut and say what spoilers I liked.)

I think I need to find a better way to read these - right now I'm doing almost all trades except S.W.O.R.D., but with the next Cable and X-Force trades not coming out in paperback for a LONG time, I'm going to get very far behind! The one nice thing about the trades is they collect everything from a story arc and put it in one shiny place for me! I think with Uncanny, that will stay in trades, even if I move off doing the Cable or X-Force ones.

Once I finish X-Factor, Cable & Deadpool is on my B&N wishlist (I used my B&N credit card for work related travel and food purchases, so I've been racking up gift cards and using them to buy the trades).

I'm not sure where to go after that! Suggestions? Any older collections worth picking up?
