This post puts me 3\/4 of the way through my TPB stack, which, all things being equal, I would have been targeting to be at by 1 a.m., putting me 90 minutes ahead of schedule.<\/p>\n

On the other hand, I’m running at about 75% efficiency right now, I think, so I expect I may be slowing down soon. Plus, I have much else I can write on.  <\/p>\n

She-Hulk, Vol. 6, “Jaded”<\/em><\/strong><\/a> <\/i>(Marvel) [collects #22-27]

With the publisher demanding a more sales-friendly change of pace for Shulkie, Peter David took over and changed her into a bounty hunter, working alongside an exiled Skrull. A darker and more bitter She-Hulk than the last go-around, but David pulls things off pretty well, laying the groundwork for how some mysteries to be revealed later on — why Jen was disbarred, as well as how she picked up a nigh-immortal Skrull as a partner. Good stuff. <\/p>\n

Shortpacked, Vol. 1, “Brings Back the Eighties”<\/em><\/strong> <\/i>(MTA)
Shortpacked, Vol. 2, “Pulls the Drama Tag!” <\/strong><\/em>(MTA)

 Collections from Willis’ web comic<\/a>, centered on a toy store. Full of toy store (esp. action figure) jokes, but with plenty of other geek humor (and surreal soap opera). I don’t read it as much as I’d like to; I should do something about that.<\/p>\n
