Greetings Spandexians! We’ve been under siege by the weather recently, so unfortunately getting back to our regular schedule has been a bit beyond our means. Thankfully, with the extra downtime we’ve been able to enjoy some great reads. I’ve been digging some stories that tackle the tumultuously mundane, David has been trekking through some fantastical childhood callbacks, Patrick continued [...]

And we’re back. After a lengthy break (in part due to our dedicated SPX coverage) I’m happy to report that Spandexless Reads is back on track, delivering our weekly roundup of pulls, reads, and recommendations.

It’s fresh, it’s fascinating, and it’s free, it’s another fantastically full installation of Spandexles Reads! This week, Patrick checks in with the Locke & Key: Grindhouse one-shot, while David and I examine some of the more fascinating aspects of webcomics presentation, navigation, and interactivity.  That might sound mundane, by I can guarantee it’s a topic that more [...]

Salutations loyal readers, welcome back to another spectacular round of Sandexless Reads! First, I have to apologize for our absence last weekend.  Unfortunately, my attempt to construct a computer out of spare parts found in the woods during my camping trip did not go as well as you might have expected.  Regardless, we’re back and [...]

Another week, another round of reads dear readers! We’ve combed the shelves at our local shops and rummaged through the backwaters of the internet to find the best, the bizarre, and the brutal.  This week , David pines for some atomic history, I tackle some of Michael Cho’s older work, and Patrick comes to terms with [...]

Greetings true believers! It’s my favorite time of the week, where we all get a shot  to talk shop and steer you towards our sensational finds.  This week, I re-title the column “Patrick Reads”, and turn the majority of space over to him. He’s joined the Hawkeye bandwagon, and so should you! David reminds us that KC [...]

So what did you read this week? Today we’re talking about the terrifically trippy, the scientifically spectacular, the absolutely adorable and every dark corner in between as we run down our favorite reads of the week. Feeling the unstoppable urge to join the conversion? Then tell us about your best reads of the week down [...]

Welcome readers, to the brand spanking new Spandexless Reads!

Well, to be fair it’s not all that new. We’ll still bring you the best bits of our weekly pulls, taking plenty of time to babble about our favorite purchases, perusals, and publications. But first things first. As Alec departs the site to move on to bigger and better things, on behalf of the Spandexless team, I’d like to wish him all the best in his future endeavors. I’ve had the great luck to inherit this column in his stead, and I have to say I’m excited to take the reigns. I hope you continue to enjoy our meandering musings, and I’d like to take this opportunity to ask all of you to share your own reads from the past week with us. Picked up something fantastically weird, obtusely out of the ordinary or incredibly imaginative? Tell us about it in the comments!
