The New 52

Our family has been spending Wednesday evening together.  We have gone out, had a cheap dinner out and talked.  This Wednesday has been no different.

Hubby loves to listen to pod casts and heard about a DC Comics relaunch, they call it the New 52, several weeks ago.  He and MAC talked about what it entailed and which characters they were keeping and which they were discontinuing.  MAC has watched "Teen Titans" and found that she really connected with Raven (a goth type character).  Unfortunately she is not currently in the relaunch, but we are holding out hope that she will reappear since we hear that she is very popular among young girls.  She has been excited to see if there are any comics that we all want to read.

We went to our local small business (3rd Eye Comics in Annapolis) and picked up the titles that sounded good to us.  It is really nice to go into a reading store and not spend a whole lot of money!  I had forgotten how cheap comics were!  It is also nice to go into a store where everyone wants to be.

MAC knows that Wednesdays are release day for the new 52 (during the month of September) so when she gets off the bus she automatically is doing her homework.  It is really nice not to have any fights over doing homework and we both feel good when I ask her about it and she can say, "It's done".
