2,011 in 2011 comic-book reading challenge: week 45 and 46 recap

Marvel Comics from the 1960s and 1970s made up the majority of my comic-book reading over the past two weeks, led by the “Captain Marvel” series from that era.  I read 69 comics total in the past two weeks of my 2,011 in 2011 comic-book challenge.  I am attempting to read 2,011 comic books in the calendar year.   With almost 89 percent of the year over, I’ve read 1,725 comics, or almost 86 percent of the total comics I need to read.  I’ve got 286 comics to go.  Click past the cut for the full breakdowns of comics read.

I read almost entirely Marvel Comics in the past two weeks, as far as comics that got logged on the blog.
