Looks like you had a great week for reading!

Protocol Orphans was a great read. I'm really looking forward to future issue of that series. It did a great job setting up the world and getting the story fully into swing.

I'm really liking Injustice Gods Among Us. I'm surprised you ranked Afterlife with Archie #2 (which I haven't read) above it. What is it about Afterlife with Archie #2 that you like so much?

It is wonderfully creepy seeing a Zombie outbreak affected characters we all know and the art looks so Retro pulpy it is brilliant. From those that I know that read it they absolutely love it.

I'm only getting 6 comics the week of December 25th (compared to 64 or so for the week of December 11th). Are you going to be able to take advantage of that tiny shipping week over X-Mas to put a dent in your backlog?

I think so. This week was bad because I had sudden hearing loss in my right ear since 11/11/2013 and I am on my forth Rx drug (just started this one) to help me get some hearing back and the side effects were fatigue and dizziness so I just went to work and came home and slept. I will definitely be reading more over the holidays.

Man, I'm really sorry to hear that. I hope this new medication helps out. Take care of yourself.
