If you ever enjoyed reading a comic book, you owe it to yourself to read this book. If you used to enjoy comic books a lot, but found them getting a little juvenile for your taste, and then realized that you had gotten a little mature for comic books, you need to read this book. If you have ever read (or even know of) The Dark Knight Returns, The Watchmen, or anything like them, you need to read this book. Even if you don’t know what I’m going on about, but think an intelligent book about the superhero genre might be neat, read the book.

Just buy the book already.

Our retirement accounts are down about $11,000 in the last few weeks. That’s a lot of lira. I’ve been surprised by our own reaction, we’re just not that worked up about it. We have a long term perspective, this too shall pass. And last spring, we put a large proportion of funds into money market and international funds.

I’m curious to know, what are my readers doing? Are you diversifying? Panicking? Not noticing at all? Selling financial stocks short? What’s your view on the overall economy, and what are you doing with your own pile to reflect that?
