Never judge a book by its....

TITLE. Ha.

It's a series of stories about revenge. If someone had done something so bad that you thought about murdering them, and an Agent appears and gives you the opportunity to do it, and get away with it... what would you do?

It's a crime series. Very good too.

I'm not really into the over-the-top superhero comics, although they're fun and i do appreciate them.

I quite like 100 Bullets series because it's realistic, has humour running throughout, and it has a dark and sinister edge.

sounds good... of course right now I'm trying to study the Golden Age of Comics. I guess that we are the postmodern age?😎

Remember Marvel Fanfare? That had the potential to be good, but....

As I look back through the veil of time, I remember the classic X-Men "Days of Future Past" story arch as being ahead of its time (if you'll excuse the pun). Byrne, Austin and Claremont were top of the heap. Cerebus was almost "underground." Art Adams was shocking the field with his Longshot and Aquaman series. Neal Adams was still doing Ms Mystic.

Remember Bizarre Adventures and Epic Magazines?

Yeah Epic was COOL! I had a few of those. Didn't last long thugh, did it?

What you want me to go ahead and say i also have tokyo babylon, and Tsubasa?

and a Chi Lighter, and CLAMP volume 1? among many CLAMP anime?

And the the xxxHOLiC anime is like sex?

oooh... I love Tsubasa and xxxHolic [and my name is Chi 😉 ] their drawings are so different from the usual Clamp style

For American comic, Fables is really cool... Who would really thought Prince Charming is the type to rely on women and Sleeping beauty would fall asleep everytime she get her finger pricked on something... 😀

i'm gonna buy sin city tomorrow volume 1 at least 🙂
