- Fiasco: The American Military Adventure in Iraq - heard the author on NPR a few days ago
- Lost Girls (collected) - new Alan Moore, an automatic for me...plus a good quick review from Wired magainze
- League of Extraordinary Gentlemen: The Black Dossier - more Moore...not-yet-released third volume of the League...the first two were outstanding
- 100 Bullets - supposedly a great comic series...this is the first collection
- Top Ten - more Moore...another one that's supposed to be a great ongoing series but that I haven't picked up yet...PLCH has the second volume but not the first
- Astro City: Family Album - third volume in the Astro City run...the first two were outstanding...wonderful, totally new world of heroes that reference so many parts of the genre
- Invincible: The Facts of Life - another ongoing series, this I've read the first four collected volumes but haven't been able to hunt down #s 5 or 6...
- Shakey: Neil Young's Biography - I dig Neil as an artist (though his last couple of albums have left me cold) and have always been a little curious as to his past
- Kurt Vonnegut's books - I haven't read nearly enough of them
- Invisible Monsters - some of my favorite books were written by Chuck Palahniuk...might as well give his others a try
- Survivor - another Palahniuk that's on the list
- The Sandman Papers: An Exploration of the Sandman Mythology - The Sandman series is one of the most impressive pieces of comic writing that I've read...anything that looks at that in more depth is worth at least a glance
- The 25th Hour - great film, supposedly a very good book
- Crimes Against Nature - might give away a bit of my political stance, but that's life
- Infinite Crisis - in the DC universe, it's supposed to be Earth-shattering...might as well know what's happening...sort of the same with Civil War over in Marvel world

Hey...maybe if you're lucky all these things you want to read will someday be movies you want to watch...
