Earlier this year, I came across the 31 Days of Comics challenge by Seth Hahne, from GoodOKBad.com. He had based this off of the movie/song-per-day challenges that I’m sure you’ve seen in people’s Instagram stories.
I’ve been waiting for the month of July to dedicate my time towards this challenge, given that in-person pop culture events have been canceled (like Anime Expo and San Diego Comic-Con), I wanted to continue celebrating comic books in my own way. I’m excited for the opportunity to discuss some of my most beloved comics, that I’ve never really had an opportunity to share before.
This summer, I’ll be writing a new post every few days about a particular comic book issue that fits the theme of the corresponding day on this list. The list of days and themes below will be updated with the correct link to direct you to the related post on a continual basis.
