Didn't really know how else to get a message to the band, but saw Sherri's post about that Superman book and thought I'd share more if anybody is interested. Or you know... totally ignore me... :p I have the book Sherri showed, but my favorite Superman book is called Superman: Secret Identity. Seriously... it's amazing. And honestly, I don't like Superman that much! Another good one, again a Superman book, is called Superman For All Seasons which includes wonderful artwork by the great Tim Sale (who also does the artwork on NBC's Heroes). A great, great, great book everybody should check out, is called DC: The New Frontier. Amazing! (they also just recently did a DVD movie based on it, but the book is better!) I could go on... but... will wait to see if there is any interest before I bore everybody to death! Edited to add: oh! all can be found on amazon if anybody get the itch. _________________ The world is a tragedy to those who feel, but a comedy to those who think. - Horace Walpole |

I guess it's too European for you guys but nothing beats the Polish-Belgian comic (in french) called Thorgal! _________________ http://www.eisley-italia.tk ! "Δῶς μοι πᾶ στῶ καὶ τὰν γᾶν κινάσω" |

Here! Although I see you can only buy the most recent ones which is a bit of an issue. They're excellent though. _________________ http://www.eisley-italia.tk ! "Δῶς μοι πᾶ στῶ καὶ τὰν γᾶν κινάσω" |

Sherri should read: "Batman: The Long Halloween" by Jeph Loeb and "Batman: Dark Victory" by Jeph Loeb (TLH's sequel) Great stuff, right there. _________________ "I shall take the heart," returned the Tin Woodsman; "for brains do not make one happy, and happiness is the best thing in the world." |

Batman: Year One They badly need to re-collect the early Eastman & Laird issues of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. _________________ My photography:www.jamiemphoto.com You can't spell awesome without emo...backwards! -Julie definingawesome (11:44:11 PM): Eisley shivers our timbers |

The Dark Knight Returns Sandman is a definite must have. I got the first volume of the Absolute edition series. Fantastic. Then again, I got a major discount on it since I work at a bookstore. I'm not sure I would have bought it had I had to pay the full $100. TDKR though... Meh. I definitely think that is overrated. It is a decent read though, I suppose. The Dark Knight Strikes Again, however, is just plain atrocious. _________________ "I shall take the heart," returned the Tin Woodsman; "for brains do not make one happy, and happiness is the best thing in the world." |

DKR? Overrated? It's the only reason people are still talking about Batman now. Spitting in the face of convention and the mainstream. Definitely not the first person to do such a thing, but to do it ont he scale he did was impressive. I liked DKR2 because it spits in the face of everything mainstream comics are right now ... even more. ha ha. It's way out there, but it's definitely an assault on the whole hyper-realism "we gotta see every seam and sweat stain" and overly serious demeanor hero comics are adopting. _________________ My photography:www.jamiemphoto.com You can't spell awesome without emo...backwards! -Julie definingawesome (11:44:11 PM): Eisley shivers our timbers |
