I sometimes spend hours in used bookstores perusing the SciFi shelves hoping to find some of the old Doctor Who Target novelizations. Sometimes I get lucky and find a couple titles in near perfect condition, but usually the paperbacks I find are so worn and damaged, they’re not worth the dollar or two price tag. As an avid Whovian, I collect these books for the reading material as well as for being a piece of Doctor Who history, but I think what I love most about these novelizations are the covers. The covers are like little works of original Doctor Who art and if it’s a really amazing cover…it doesn’t even matter if it’s an episode or a Doctor I’m not necessarily fond of. The art just does it for me.

My goodies from Free Comic Book Day. For one reason or another, I’ve never been able to attend any Free Comic Book Day events do this year was my first time. I took my niece and nephew to two different local stores so we could get all the titles we wanted as well as pick up a few extras for a younger nephew who wasn’t able to go. In addition to The New 52, The Avengers, and Transformers: Regeneration One freebies, the hardcover Mouse Gaurd was also one of my favorites.
