This week in reading

So this week I've read this:

Photobucket

Civil War is totally awesome! It had me totally enthralled while reading. And the artwork is fucking amazing! The craft that went into the comic book is astounding. I'm just waiting for the comic book shop to get Frontlines 1(I already have Frontlines 2) in so I can continue the read before heading into the individual hero stories. I recommend this series with all my nerdy heart. It's up there with Transmetropolitan and Watchmen.

Get Fuzzy is just a funny easy read that basically is about a man(Rob Wilco) and his dog(Satchel) and cat(Bucky) and the hilarity that can be. It's also a warm kinda sideways view into our society. You should at least check it out. 

Star Wars.. Does it need introduction? Not really. Well what you're seing there is the first book in The Thrawn Trilogy, Heir To The Empire. And it deals with the aftermath of the movies. And possibly the coolest cat in the Empire, Grand Admiral Thrawn. I recommend this as read for anyone into Star Wars. Also to others but people familiar with Star Wars lore will get the most out of it. 

So that's what I've read this week.

Some Thoughts

Civil War

I've started to read the Civil War comics from Marvel after I'd heard about it on Annoyed Gamer

I started with "The Road To Civil War" and will shortly read the "Civil War" comic. My version is the issue 1-7 collected into one paperback. It's totally awesome! Thank you Marcus for pointing me in that dircetion. :-)  ...I love comics.. I really do. 

My Gaming Life

So this week I've been playing my 360 alot, been kinda hooked on Puzzle Quest. I've got 8 out of 12 achivements on that and I've gained a few other ones. Played a little Gears Of War, the Penny Arcade Epi. 1 and some other stuff too. I did play my Wii a little with Zack&Wiki and some Wii Sports (which I haven't touched for months) and a little PS3 in the form of Star Wars The Force Unleashed and Guitar Hero 3. Not been like super hardcore but I've played more this week that before. But  I love to play. Going to play alot in the coming days/weeks/months. 

The Other Stuff

Other than that I've been working out twice in 4 days, doing 2 sessions (1H/45min) of strength and cardio. To get fitter, tone up and loose some weight/inches. I work with manuals (that I can adjust the weight on) and doing other stuff.  Who knows, maybe I'll do a hints&tips video at a later time. (no garantee!) 

And I've been following my fave podcasts, tv shows and such too. Listened to net radio, Some from Shout-cast.com and Bandit.se. And bought new shoes (about bloody time as I haven't bought new shoes since 05). 

So that's a little update from me.
