Intermission

After a successful few days of book hunting in my local used book shops in Southsea, I won’t be reading any comics for the next couple of weeks. I tend to go through phases of reading books for a few weeks every once in a while and with my recent purchases, I have several new novels to read.

Highlights include:
Bran Mak Morn by Robert E Howard
The Beetle by Richard Marsh
A couple of the later Tarzan books by Edgar Rice Burroughs
A few Doc Savage that I’m yet to read
And a beautiful Tom Swift Jr. hardback (pictured)


No Fu Manchu on the shelves unfortunately.
Speaking of Fu Manchu, I had the wonderful experience of my four year old boy walking around the house this morning wearing a fake moustache and insisting on being called Fu Boy Chu. These moments are priceless.
