A Sense of Doubt blog post #3001 - Weekly Comics Lists for April 2023

I interrupt my plans to post this blog entry.

I have in the works a post about the great new comic Love Everlasting, but I want to do more with it before I publish it, so much more that it will take too long to get ready to publish today, a day late.

Instead, this.

Usually in these cases, I select a comic cover at random for THAT ONE THING. I was going to do that. But I changed my mind.

You may not know, as I have not posted one in some time, but every month when I receive my comics shipment from Michigan, and even before that when I was hitting Fanfare weekly, I would log the comics in a blog entry to review them. This was my "weekly" practice that I struggled to maintain here on SENSE OF DOUBT after finishing the t-shirts blog year and trying to keep a regular schedule.

I discovered that the pressure of daily posts worked better than the pressure for weekly ones.

When I started HEY MOM on July 6th, 2015, weekly comics were not foremost on my mind for post content. I published a couple over the years since, but not too many. Mostly I have several dozen (a month at a time and at least seven years' worth means a good 84 of my 600+ drafts are these comic book posts. That's a lot to try to catch up to current. For a while, I considered making a gigantic post that collected all of them, but that seemed too much. Then I considered just publishing them all with little to no commentary but that would throw off my count, though the days since and the total posts is not the same anyway.

Well, here's one of the posts, which shows my weekly subscription and any trips to other stores, such as both I Like Comics and Cosmic Monkey in April 2023.

A few comments on the reading order, which is what I create once I get the shipment. BTW, though shuffled into the stack, the comics bought at other stores are not listed in the reading order, just the Fanfare comics from Michigan.

Also, the back log is much reduced from the usual mostly because I have dropped a bunch of comics I was not reading on a monthly basis.

Amazing Spider-Man jumped to the top of the stack because of the storyline revealing what Peter did to make everyone hate him, except Norman Osborn, for whom he now works.

Number ones usually hit the top, so the new re-launch of Green Arrow is next.

The new Superman has jumped up the stack because it's so excellent.

Always a favorite, Fantastic Four is always near the top.

Captain America Sentinel of Liberty has placed higher and higher each month because of its excellence, especially this month with the Cold War storyline coming out.

Some comics that were at the top or nearer have fallen because of the reasons listed above, such as Batman, World's Finest, and She-Hulk.

True, the new Planet of the Apes comic is the cover image, but that's only because I choose one comic from the first week of the month and that was the candidate. I also try to mix it up and not repeat so Fables, Scarlet Witch, Spider-Man, and I Am Iron Man were not choices for that week as I have featured those atop these posts in recent months (not that you have seen them as they are unpublished).

Thanks for tuning in and reading about my OCD geekdom.

- Days ago =  2865 days ago

- New note - On 1807.06, I ceased daily transmission of my Hey Mom feature after three years of daily conversations. I plan to continue Hey Mom posts at least twice per week but will continue to post the days since ("Days Ago") count on my blog each day. The blog entry numbering in the title has changed to reflect total Sense of Doubt posts since I began the blog on 0705.04, which include Hey Mom posts, Daily Bowie posts, and Sense of Doubt posts. Hey Mom posts will still be numbered sequentially. New Hey Mom posts will use the same format as all the other Hey Mom posts; all other posts will feature this format seen here.
