Might be time to pass the torch from the Star Wars movies to all of those new Star Wars TV series on Disney +, perhaps.

I did a very geeky thing today. Had a stack of comic books from when I last had a subscription (... in 2014; this is the fruit of a long period of procrastination), so I took the time to bag and board them to take them out to one of the long boxes in the garage in order to free up a little space elsewhere.

Naturally, it made me reflect a bit. The issues I put up were all from the "Marvel NOW!" runs of Avengers, (not-so-)New Avengers, and Secret Avengers. "Marvel NOW!" was the time when I decided the direction of the comics side of Marvel was no longer for me, which is a shame, since it came after a period (Heroic Age) when I was still pretty excited to see what was coming next. I think, perhaps, when the movies started getting bigger than the source material, that was when I jumped ship.

Doesn't mean I won't go back and reread the oldies, though, even if "oldies" now includes the '00s runs, back when comic books started picking up a new head of steam after the clusterfuck that was the '90s and the comic book crash.
