In the process of reading the entirety of Marvel continuity from Fantastic Four #1 (1961) onward. Now that I am up to 2016 I sometimes skeet about it.
I'm more than halfway through East of West now, and I'm definitely engaged and enjoying it. The writing is very much Hickman being Hickman, and I'm here for it, for starters. But what really surprised me is the @nickdragotta.bsky.social art. It really made me a fan.

I know you won't believe this, but @kierongillen.bsky.social's work sometimes has puns.

@kierongillen.bsky.social got Simon Pegg and Nick Frost killed, and I'm really enjoying myself. Art by Dan Mora and @tamrabonvillain.bsky.social.
I do have to wonder if Hot Fuzz is also a story brought to life.

@kellysue.bsky.social, @vdelandro.bsky.social, Chris Peter, and @claytoncowles.bsky.social's Bitch Planet is just amazing. I was feeling a bit down on my comics reading. It brought me right back up, as soon as I started reading it.

This pretty hefty book finally arrived in the mail. I've only read The Faust Act before so this is mostly an entirely new read for me. Thanks to @kierongillen.bsky.social , @mckelvie.bsky.social , @claytoncowles.bsky.social , Matt Wilson, and @waltscomicshop.bsky.social who packed it like a treasure

@al-ewing.bsky.social does the obvious Thing, but he does it so goddamned well. The Immortal Hulk #40

I went and ordered the Treasury Edition and I finally got my hands on it. Gorgeous and it includes the variant covers, of course. @javierrodriguez.bsky.social @bakadori.bsky.social

Black Widow by @kellythompson.bsky.social, @casagrande-e.bsky.social, and Jordie Bellaire is absolutely amazing. Only up to issue four, but I feel like this should be Eisner winning stuff.

The covers seem to be all by Steve McNiven and Mark Farmer, and they are great, but I would have preferred them to be done by @javierrodriguez.bsky.social and @bakadori.bsky.social. Just for the added consistency.

Probably my favourite page in the first issue. Just gorgeous composition, with masterful inking and colours.

I have a proper 12" tablet with a great screen but, still, reading this on MU doesn't quite cut it. Because of the poor zoom function I am unable to read the full page in landscape.
In any case, this is already a series I will definitely want to buy the book. A huge edition, hopefully.

Gorgeous, filled with detail, yet perfectly clear to follow.

As expected, every page is a banger. Can't see Whoopi Goldberg, though.

Nowadays I'm pretty sure Mark, Javier, and Álvaro can do no wrong. Given that and that I've been reading 616 for over ten years, I'm chuffed to be reading the History

Jonathan Hickman et al's House of X is where I'm at in my reading, right at the end of 2019. Properly excited about the mutants for the first time in years.

Reading @rainbowrowell.bsky.social and #AndrésGenolet Runaways #21 and I keep feeling surprised by how great this series is. The art is really great but it's the writing that knocks it out of the park. Also by @chrisohalloran.bsky.social and @joecaramagna.bsky.social

Unbeatable Squirrel Girl is, categorically, one of the greatest series Marvel has ever put out.
