Comic books or graphic novels

[Marlo]

Longsight m 13 - Watchmen is great, I read it December 2019. Ultimate cut of movie is good too. Road to perdition is a good movie.


J rock blues- Preacher and the boys are great by Ennis indeed. I've still to read sandman actually, v is great, moore is a genius. If you like watchmen doomsday clock is the sequel but I've yet to read it.

Everything changes but blue - What horror stuff mate?

Haven't read preacher but heard great things.

The boys is brilliant an the amazon TV show is a excellent adaptation.

Some of the artwork and graphics were worthy of the purchase alone. We appear to have now not so much as regressed, than really progressed in the comic book genre although their are many modern works still worthy of our interest.
DC or Marvel spring to the mindset so fuck off Desperate Dan et Keyhole Kate as you're not fit to grace the sharpened nibbules of Baz smith or of any of their ilk mentioned in dispatches.

The Silver Surfer: The Ultimate Cosmic Experience may not have been the first Graphic Novel but it was the first from Marvel stable and what a first it was. In the immortal words of norrin radd...

Let my board and me again become as one! For I must leave this place of madness!

Norrin Radd, a restless inhabitant of a utopian planet. When his race was threatened by the all-consuming Galactus Norrin Radd saved the day by offering to aid the menace in his endless quest for the worlds to devour. In sacrificing himself twice, once for his own people, and again for humanity, The Silver Surfer took on Christ-like qualities. The selflessness that made him so admired has finally been rewarded, and today he remains free to soar among the stars.

Not really into graphic novels, but the artwork of bernie Wrightson is astounding, beautiful illustrations that are very dark.

The Claremont and Byrne Dark Phoenix Saga is a masterpiece. Still fucks me off how the two movie attempts were absolute wank.

Not really a big fan of comics but I did buy Fiends of the Eastern Front a few years ago. It is a WW2/vampire tale from 2000AD which I read as a kid and which made a big impression on me.

As good as I remember and it would make a great film.

Watchmen is one of my all time favourites along with Frank Millers Dark Knight, if you love artwork check out Alex Ross his superhero artwork is unreal and one day I’ll own one.
