:: Posted by Bryan @ 8/12/2008 12:47:00 AM

Our next Summer Reading Survey comes from Jamie Coville. Please send us yours.

1. Name and occupation (contact info/website/publisher's website).

Jamie Coville. Comics Columnist / Historian. CollectorTimes.com and
TheComicBooks.com

2. What is your latest project (ie, what are you hyping)?

Paradise Comics Toronto Comicon and San Diego Comic Con Coverage. Also a Mark Waid telephone interview about Boom! and his more recent written work.

3. Please provide a list of books you have recently read or are planning to read. They don't have to be comic books. (In fact, we would almost prefer they weren't.) Any number of books is fine. Please feel free to comment (ie, Why are you reading these books? What did you think?).

Recently Read:
Monster Vol. 15 - An Excellent Thriller. A must read along side Walking Dead.
Clyde Fans Book 1 - A greatly executed book that makes a very mundane story interesting. I'll get Part 2.
I Killed Adolf Hitler - Short and fun, the story had twists I didn't expect.
Flash: Rogues - Part of a greater story. It was good, but not SO good that I'll actively seek out the rest.
Wonder Woman: Eyes of the Gorgon and Land of the Dead - One of the better Wonder Woman stories I've read.

Upcoming:
The Punisher: River of Blood - Dixon and Joe Kubert on Punisher peaked my interest.
Tales of the Bizarro World - Recently read the 1st Bizarro story,wanted to read more.
Yen Press + Magazine - Mainly for Svetlana Chmakova's latest work, but I'm curious about the rest.
Impulse: Reckless Youth - I liked the character, wanted to read more of him.
Mrs. Tree Case Files Vol 2 & 3 - I read the 1st volume years ago and it stuck with me. Delighted to have found these books.
Plus a handful of comics to review.

Non Comics (but all comic related)
The History of Romance Comics. Not a lot of detailed research has been done in this area, so I'm curious.
The Golden Age of Comic Fandom
Alter Ego #56 (Siegel interview and more)
Alter Ego: The Best of the Legendary Comic Fanzine
Following Cerebus #9

4. Please list any upcoming events/upcoming publications. Your next project?

I'll have a Neal Adams interview up on CollectorTimes.com either next month or the issue after.
