Have you read anything this year that you would consider "can't miss?" I'm going to list a few books that I've really enjoyed and hope others will too. It's only my opinion so don't kill me if you don't feel the same.
My first choice would be Scurry by Mac Smith. I've read over 100 books this year and it's probably my favorite.
It's a great story with beautifully painted (digital) artwork.
I bought the hardcover set and have no regrets. It's a book I'll always keep in my collection. This is one of those times I wish I knew about the Kickstarter ahead of time because I would have definitely backed a sketch tier.
If you don't want to spend $100 for 3 hardcovers you can read it for free online.
Dragon Hoops by Gene Yuen Yang is one of my favorite books of the year. His Superman Smashes the Klan is great too. Just read Jack Kirby The Epic Life of the King of Comics by Tom Scioli and I learned a lot about Jack that I did not know. Peace, maka

Agreed! Gene is going to be at Baltimore Comic Con next week. I wish I was going. He's one of the few artists I still want to sign my copy of Nursery Rhyme Comics.

I highly recommend you get more "thinking" done.
Time, it's all about TIME man! There just isn't enough of it, thus I accumulate literature for when time becomes available (hopefully before my time on this earth expires).

How's that for snarky?
My tastes are 'eclectic' ... and I admit, not always spot-on.

I have been reading a few new books as they come out. Too early to tell if they are gonna stay on my pull list indefinitely but they have caught my interest:
Home Sick Pilots Time Before Time Mazebook We Only Find Them When They're Dead Something Is Killing the Children along with spin-off House of Slaughter TMNT: The Last Ronin
Then of course I have a few books that I know are more or less guaranteed to be good reads
Chilling Adventures of Sabrina Black Hammer et al. Hellboy et al. Outerverse et al. Norse Mythology The Walking Dead Deluxe
I read Home Sick Pilots, We Only Find Them When They're Dead and Something Is Killing the Children. In my opinion SIKTC is the best of the bunch. I just traded in my tpbs for the hardcover slipcase.
