This particular series seems to just go on and on, so I eventually had to unsubscribe to it. The others that I have subscribed to have stopped or gone on hiatus or changed in some other way so that I just had to not subscribe to their new incarnation, if any.<\/p>\n<p>To be honest, I have not had much interest in this for the last couple years at least. But when I lived in the original Chaos Node apartment, I had quite probably more than my own weight in comics, most of them superhero comics. I gave away most of them when I moved from there to Chaosnodeland, but kept a couple barely crates of my favorite comics. \u00c2\u00a0Of these, I had read about a dozen again when I moved anew four years later, so I winnowed a little more. \u00c2\u00a0I still haven&#8217;t read them since. I suppose I should give them away while I still can. I am not sure how long the used-book store will hang on. \u00c2\u00a0Or I could burn them, but that would release CO2 into the atmosphere.<\/p>\n<p>That part of my life is over, somewhat belatedly.<\/p>\n<p>That said, I still play <em>City of Heroes<\/em>.
