All I want for Christmas....

Wow. It is hard to believe it is almost Thanksgiving. Christmas is just around the corner. Different families have different traditions. For example, my family make out Christmas lists but my wife's family doesn't. One way isn't right or wrong, just different. I made up my list this year and put a few trade paperbacks I have been wanting for awhile:

Deadpool Classic Vol. 1
Arkham Asylum: Living Hell
Strange Girl Vol. 1: Girl Afraid

These are on my Amazon wish list (http://www.amazon.com/gp/registry/wishlist/2R6BN53Q4YSUM/ref=lst_llp_wl-go)

I would LOVE to be able to put commissioned art on my list, but it just isn't really practical. I have been loving Wellinton Alves' artwork on Nova. He does great 'cosmic' art. There are lots of talented artists who do commissions through www.comiconart.com but I just haven't been able to buy much lately due to other circumstances. Instead I filled up my list with practical stuff such as some tools, a chair to put in my comic reading area in the basement. I need a good sturdy bookshelf for my tpbs as well. I had to rearrange the set up in my basement a little bit. The city had to do some gas meter work on the houses in my area. they installed new meters and put new piping in the walls. In doing so they took down some of the art off my walls and a shelf where I geekishly had some action figures on display. I kind of like the new set up now though. I have an area on the wall where I can display 6 pieces of art framed. Right now I only have 5 up though. Thats a post for another time though. I guess I had better get back to work. Oh, and I REALLY need to figure out what to get my wife for Christmas..
