So, who here is a comic book or graphic novel reader?
I'm just finishing up Preacher, which is fantastic. I'm halfway into The Watchmen, Black Hole, Tomie, and a few others. |

Fables sounds so interesting! I love reading different takes on traditional fairy tale characters... but I don't think I will be reading it anytime soon, as I want to get the most out of my current Batman phase first. Speaking of Batman, what are your favourite graphic novels involving him? So far I've read Year One, The Long Halloween, The Killing Joke, and The Dark Knight Returns. And I will be reading Kingdom Come for my English class this coming semester. I was very close in buying Hush by Jeph Loeb, but it ended up being more expensive than I had anticipated, haha (will definitely be asking for it for my birthday hehe). The concept of Arkham Asylum: A Serious House on Serious Earth really interests me, but I'm not sure if I would be able to appreciate the extremely different type of art. =\ So yeah... suggestions would be nice. |
