Daily Comic Journal: January 19, 2018: “Let’s All Go To The Lobby (And The Theater)!”
For any non-movie fans, today’s comic will probably be skippable, but since it’s a favorite hobby of mine, please indulge me.
While writing this one, it got me thinking about many of those movies I’ve seen since 2010 (when I started these comics) so for anyone who’s curious, if you’d like to see any of the comics I’ve drawn for the films I saw, see the compiled list below. (I apologize upfront for the poor drawing/writing of many of the earlier comics. I’d like to think I’ve grown/learned a lot since those early strips)

What’s the 37th movie of 2017?!?!?!?!
Blame my math and a change of mind. I DID see 37 movies in 2017, “Star Wars: The Last Jedi” was the 37th because I saw “Guardian of the Galaxy, Vol 2” twice. When I counted my movies for this comic I decided not to count films I saw a second time.
