Update 5-30-14

Shalom, bibliophiles! Alas,  besides my own inability to care for myself, thus my constant health problems, I'm experiencing family problems, and that's made doing vlog entries tough because I'm depressed, exhausted, and sick. However, here's a short entry:

Thanks for stopping by, and please stop by again, soon. 

Cheers,

Belated Comic Book Update from 4-8-14

Shalom, bibliophiles! As promised, I am posting old vlog entries that I shot, when I was sick, before I had the software problems.

This entry has a wide assortment of things, including a crazy small set of Lobo comic books. Let's see what I mean:

Well, I'm off to sleep, but I will be posting more backlogged vlog entries and, hopefully, some new ones.

Thanks for stopping by, and please do stop by again!

Comic Book Update from late 4-26-14

Shalom, bibliophiles! This video was shot 4 weeks ago, but, due to video software problems, health problems, and teaching, I could not figure out how to post this vlog entry. I am hoping that I've figured out, at least, the software issues. So, let's see which comic book I scored:

Well, that was, sort of, okay. I'm sorry for my sad demeanor, but I'm having a rough go of it, personally. If all goes well, this should be the start of a run of both backlogged vlog entries (from the previous few months) and brand new entries. 

Thanks for tuning in, and please stop by again. 

Cheers,

Update from 4-29-14

Shalom, bibliophiles! 

Alas, I've not posted a vlog entry or other material for a long time; the past few months have not been good. Besides helping a sick family member from Christmas into February, I became very ill, again, from my disease. Around the end of March, however, I started feeling a bit better, but I've faced two problems: 1) I'm very busy with teaching responsibilities for my spring courses, and 2) I'm having difficulty figuring out the update of my video software (iMovie). I really loved the older version of iMovie, but this new update has me completely confused and frustrated. At first, I was unable to shoot video for vlog entries, and, now, while I figured out that problem, I cannot edit the video I shoot, which is a big problem. 

Therefore, today, I am only posting two pictures. 

That is the front and back cover of Spartacus, a single issue comic book, from 1960. We see photographs of Kirk Douglas from the movie, I believe. The interior, however, is not material from the film, but typical four-color comic book stuff, done by the late John Buscema. Comic book readers will likely know the work of Buscema, from his "sword and sandal" Conan the Barbarian to Avengers and the Silver Surfer. The comic does not appear to have been properly stored, but it's in pretty good condition, still. I bagged and boarded the comic book, and it will go into my collection of Dell Comic Books, a small part of my collection, which includes issue #3 of Mission Impossible. 

Well, that is all for now. I'm hoping, if I get some free time later this week, to spend a few hours monkeying around with iMovie and hope to learn how to edit materials, so I can post vlog entries (as I do have a dozen or so shot). Thanks for stopping by, and please stop by again. 

Cheers,

Belated Graphic Novel Scores Update, 1-24-14

Shalom, bibliophiles! Alas, the best laid plans, in my world, always fall apart, so it's taking me far longer to shoot and post vlog entries. Life remains chaotic. All of that aside, let us see what I scored:

Cool! 

Thanks for stopping by, and please stop by again because I hope to post another vlog entry before the end of the week. 

Cheers,

Comic Book Update 1-19-14

Shalom, bibliophiles! Well, it's been weeks since my last vlog entry, and I apologize; however, the chaos of life has, once again, taken hold of things. Any way, let's see which comic books arrived:

Wow, that is a neat bunch of comic books! Tonight, I am, actually, going to start reading the Wolverine stuff, so, later this week, I can pass them along to my nephew. 

Thanks for tuning in, and please stop by again. I sure hope that I can post another vlog entry over the next few days; it's been a tough few weeks around here (I'm not even working, sadly), but I will try to set aside an hour or two to do a vlog. 

Cheers,

Comic Book Update 12-27-13

Shalom, bibliophiles! As promised, even with my illness and other problems, I'm trying to vlog a bit. It's hard for me to be happy or stay focused, but I hope the vlogging gives me a bit of an escape, for a few minutes, and brings news, to family and friends, of my growing book and comic book collection. Let's see what goodies I scored:

That was an eclectic set of comic books and books, eh? I'm going to rebag most, after I start reading them. I'm having trouble reading, lately, because the stress (and skin condition) doesn't allow me the ability to sit still for long periods, sadly. 

Any way, I'm grateful that you stopped by and watched this vlog entry, and I hope that you will stop by again soon. 

Cheers,
