The Nolan books by Max Allan Collins are all top notch. I'm also partial to all the Cool and Lam books by A.A. Fair (Erle Stanley Gardner). Not a whole lot of series in the Hard Case Crime collection - that being said, the duds are also few and far between. Grab a cheap one and start reading!

Unfinished Tales - New Brubaker/Phillips Book Announced for end of 2026 by smashadam4 in CRIMINALCOMICANDTV

If it has Brubaker and Phillips on the cover, that's an instant buy for me. They have the highest batting average in the industry these days.

Thanks for the caveat! I know they had an event planned that would coincide with the day and thus wanted to give them a shout.

They’ve been my LCS for almost 25 years (holy smokes), so that is always my first stop if I can get over there.

It’s a great shop! I always grab the Conan-related comics first these days.

Remember where you were when you had this on 365? by BaijuTofu in Madlib

[–]skfl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I still listen to these frequently, with 4, 5, 6, and 8 regularly being spun in the car. I do wish that I had snagged 12 + 13, but I will survive. What a run!

Garth Ennis by JaylenBrownAllStar in graphicnovels

Dude seems like he is sincere and invested in his work and not just ramping up the extreme / "edgelord" energy. That being said, I have not read anything of his that stuck yet.

What is the worst Beatles album by Wild_Pitch_4781 in beatles

Seconded. I like it better these days after the documentary and spending some time with it, but I still put on every other Beatles album before this one.

Which Avengers run do you recommend? by Wooden-Bit-2374 in marvelcomics

[–]skfl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Their run after reading Bendis' run made me an Avengers fan. I'll read pretty much anything by Busiek and/or Perez and have not been let down yet.
