November 22, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

It’s been a busy month of comic book reading for me. For the most part this is made possible by a shiny new Nexus 7 tablet (hmm, comics in HD) and the inability to sleep. I wonder if the two are connected? In Irregular Reconnaissance I take the chance to write up some of these […]
