Monday Morning Grind 8-24-2020

A small list this week but as the month ends I have to move my attention toward the closing catalog. I did sneak a few in and though I enjoyed the first half, the second half of the Lois Lane story seemed to forget what the first half had done. The romance is between Lois and Superman is nice but the Question relationship made it more of a Justice League feel than a Lois story.

This weeks manager’s choice is The Death of Nancy Drew #2. The issue returned the Hardy Boys, Nancy Drew team up and gave you the touching additive of a professional willing to commit a crime to help find a murderer. I appreciate the sacrifice of a long term character to further the plot and hope they are repurposed the character as a fallen angel of sorts.

Our catch up efforts continue as we clear some old reads once left behind. Since some of our people have requested them, we will finish them ASAP. This weeks pick for Manager’s Choice is Strange Academy. This title is well scripted and has a youthful, fun feeling that reminds us all about the first day of high school. Issue two breaks down the school day one period at a time. Both teachers and students have to adjust as the day ends. I look forward to issue 3.

Welcome back to the Monday Morning Grind. Most of the shutdown was spent merging the stores but August is back to normal, so here we go. One small change. We will be adding a location in the store for the Owner’s Choice of the Week. An example will be made of the below, so check it out.

This weeks choice is Criminal. No issue choice as the two complete a four part story and it is that story we are choosing. This title is compatible to Daredevil and likely ties for series of the year.

  • Criminal #11
  • Criminal #12
  • Sword Daughter #2
