I'll be updating this section with books and comics that I'm currently reading. games that I am currently engrossed in or TV shows that I am watching on a regular basis. Its not to show off or anything but if you find something on the list that interests you then by all means pick it up and follow it with me. I'll give short descriptions as well. Anything listed here is stuff that I actually like, I'm not just picking random titles.

Books
"No country is as misunderstood as North Korea, and no modern tyrant has remained more mysterious than the Dear Leader, Kim Jong Il. Now, celebrity ghostwriter Michael Malice pulls back the curtain to expose the life story of the “Incarnation of Love and Morality.”
Just started reading it. Gives Kim Jong Il's perspective on everything which is mostly just propaganda but the author didn't publish the book for that reason. He wants people to know how bad the country is so bare that in mind.
"The show is based around the eccentric Dirk Gently (Samuel Barnett) who claims to be a "holistic detective", investigating obscure cases based on the inter-connectivity of all things. During the first season he befriends Todd Brotzman (Elijah Wood) and Farah Black (Jade Eshete) who help him with his cases. Dirk's past is linked with "Project Blackwing", a secret CIA project to evaluate subjects with strange abilities. Dirk is not only followed by agents of Blackwing trying to recapture him but also by Bart Curlish (Fiona Dourif), another Blackwing subject who considers herself a "holistic assassin" and believes she is destined to kill Dirk."
At first I was hesitant to start watching this series because of it having Elijah Wood but this really is a great series. Great writing, complex story lines and some time travel make this show surprisingly entertaining.
Comics
"Moon Knight gains enhanced strength, endurance, and reflexes at night, reaching his pinnacle during a full moon, and sometimes has prophetic visions. Moon Knight is a skilled boxer, commando, martial artist, acrobat, gymnast and pilot. His multiple identities grant him resistance to some psychic assaults."
Reboot of an older title which some great added dimensions to the character. More background, strange visions and some paranormal stuff, in addition to his normal crime-fighting. Great title especially since you can catch the series early.
