Thank you very much everyone for the warm wishes. I had a great day. I\'ll definitely post about it in my journal sometime tomorrow (it\'s 4.05AM here as it is).
To answer your question, Terry, I picked up quite a few in the past couple of months. Not all of them are Birthday related as you can imagine, but I feel it only fair to mention them all since I treat my collection as a mountain with many supports rather than just a few sparse mole hills purchased for the moment. Anyways, here\'s what I picked up:
100 Bullets TPB vol 1 (#1-4)
Alias TPB vol 1 (#1-9)
Alias #10
Alias TPB vol 2 (#11-15)
Authority, The TPB vol 1 and 2
Batman #608-615
Batman No Man\'s Land TPB vol 1-4
Batman: The Long Halloween TPB
Captain America Vol 1 hardcover The New Deal
Cat Woman vol 1 TPB (Detective Comics #759-762, Cat Woman #1-4)
Daredevil vol 2 hardcover (#26-37)
Daredevil TPB vol 5 and 6 (#35-45)
Daredevil #46-47
Flash, The #198
Planetary TPB vol 1 and 2
Ultimate Spider-Man vol 1 and 2 hardcover (#1-27)
Ultimates, The TPB vol 1 (#1-6)
Ultimates, The #7
Wolverine: Snikt #1
Italics denotes a title that I personally love reading.
Anyways, plenty of great stuff in there. I realize they\'re not the novels that many of you are akin to reading, and I do tend to read those as well, but there\'s just something about comics these days that are just so mystical and awe inspiring. If you\'re interested or read comics or did read them at one point in time, I highly suggest picking some up.
