April 2013 Reads

March was a little on the slow side compared to previous months but I expect that had a lot to do with March/Spring Break and Easter Holidays.  Still quite a few links posted and those who are regular linkers are doing a fine job.  For other players, don't give up!!  Even if you haven't even started yet there are still 9 whole months to go, so what are you waiting for?  Pick up a comic and read it today!

Just one person crossing a finish line this month and that just so happens to be me, your humble host!  And remember just because you met your goal is no reason to stop linking all the great graphic novels and manga you review throughout the year
