With just over $100 in trade remaining to share, Aden and I left our local comics dispensary with our meager acquisitions... four books all told, two apiece, one of which closes off a mini-series I was reading. I took a gander the the coming week's purchases already and noticed that two more of my mini-series reads are coming to a close, leaving me with the following books remaining:
Gutsville - 3 issues remain
Serenity: Final Days - 1 issue remains
Pax Romana - 2 issues remain
Transhuman - 3 issues remain
Local - 2 issues remain (1 of which is out next week)
I've terminated all my ongoing titles, two of which Aden's now getting (X-Factor and Brave and the Bold, the latter of which I think she's stopping at the end of the current story line, which coincidentally also ships next week).
I also have an open storyline from Action Comics, written by Superman movie director Richard Donner, which will be concluded whenever DC gets around to printing the Action Comics Annual (It was supposed to hit in February but obviously was delayed).
So, for the first time in nearly 7 years I don't have any ongoing books to read, and soon enough most of the stories I'm collecting will be concluded. It's funny, because I have the opportunity to keep acquiring (without spending money) but I'm still scaling back, way back, trying to keep more in spirit with Buy Nothing Year.
As I keep track every month of what's solicited two months hence, I know what I'm missing, but, as I originally stated when I had first conceived of BNY, it'll be interesting to see what I'm still interested in next year.
