Busy busy week...

Well, I finally got my books, a whole months worth and I have to say that I am in love with the Doom Patrol. It's everything that I wanted the John Byrne reboot to be but even better. Toss in the Metal Men backup & I'm reading this book twice, back to back.

Besides that, I'm gearing up for BGG.con. Yup, .coN, not coM. BGG.con is the convention held every year by Boardgamegeek.com. Four big days down in Dallas, hundreds of boardgamers from around the globe (literally, around the globe) gather to play boardgames. I'm not talking Monopoly & Risk here. We're talking games that you've never seen and probably never heard of, but you should go check these things out right here.

I'm getting games ready to sell at the Flea Market, doing inventory to insure that Panzer Blitz has all 300 cardboard chits, that Battle Masters has all the Orc warriors and that Fury of Dracula has no split corners. On top of all that, I have Stamps to list on ebay for my wife, a monthly game night to get ready for, a trip to pack for, my wife to kill and Gilder to frame for it. (Sorry, got a little carried away there.)

I will be getting to Jonah Hex #87 before I leave and I'll probably post some unofficial thoughts on Six Gun War.

  1. Sounds as though you are going to be quite busy. Board games eh? Candyland...HO!

    Doom Patrol has been pretty good, although I must admit that I simply love Metal Men. Did you get a Sinestro Corps ring?

  2. Before I even finished the sentence I had already thought "my wife to murder, and Gilder to frame for it. I'm swamped."
