Hunting for books online is fun; visiting various sites and comparing prices and such. But nothing compares to walking into a bookstore and finding what you've been looking for as though it's been right there waiting for you all along.

I am this many stories shy of completing my run of Doc Savage Bantam reprints. I scored the last three omnibus editions today and these five books are all that remain.

I really dig Batman Caped Crusader. I’m going to need a physical copy at some point, too.

This aired just the once in 1998 on the live SNL show for which McKay wrote it.
It was effectively banned as it never aired again.
I wonder why.

This cover by Michael W. Kaluta, in particular, but all the Batman Family books are among my fave. I love the Dollar Comics format.
And the other is essentially a tabloid-format Brave and Bold that rocks your socks off.

The average temperature for September (so far) in my corner of Kansas is 99.2. More than 16 degrees above the average for the entire month last year.
Today it's 98. Tomorrow (day 11 of the heatwave) is forecast to be 102 then we get a break.
August was only 3 degrees warmer than last year. #kswx

Have to take the car in this morning to see if the AC is fixable. Next 5 days 98-100* each day and I have a 40 minute commute.
I hope it’s fixable.

I was killed in comics this week. (From Bad Thoughts 3 by Ande Parks and Dave Wachter. Ignition Press.) Thank goodness for the multiverse because I probably deserved what happened in the other one.

Four more Doc Savage Omnibus collections acquired (#s 3,6,7, and 10). I now have 156 of the original 182 supersagas as reprinted by Bantam books. I'm down to needing 6 of the doubles and 3 more omnibii. I've been a fan all my life and completing this run has been a dream from the beginning.
