I’ve decided to track my comic reading for 2011: this will be my first full year of reading graphic novels and collected editions only, no monthly comics. Based on my reading last year books slipped by and I forgot them, which doesn’t work well for a writer and reviewer. My goal is to provide a link where the book can be purchased, a short overview and a review to the book if I write one for Comic Book Daily.

West Coast Blues
Interesting take on violence, routine and their effects on one man’s life. Rounded Jacques Tardi art.
Catwoman: Relentless
Early Brubaker stories of Catwoman and Slam Bradley with art by Stewart and Pulido. Clean and simple art for a noir storyline.
Amazing Spider-Man: The Gauntlet Volume 2
Amazing Spider-Man: The Gauntlet Volume 4
King Of The Flies Volume 1
Bizarre David Lynch like story of city life from a bunch of bored teenagers and the very nasty turns life can take. Art is dark and clean.
Green Lantern Corps: Emerald Eclipse
Stories leading up to Blackest Night; slices of life from the Corps.
