Thinking About the Future of Comics

Jumping in my the first comic to catch my eye were the ones on Dr.Who. The basic premise of the stories is a ship of timelords just trying to survive. The only the reason I read this first is because I wanted to know the difference between the comics and television. It came as a surprise that the comics came out a year exactly after the show started to air. The style might have not been my cup of tea, but I definitely enjoyed the premise of the storyline, where it had started with the timelords, definitely would read more so I could have a better understanding of where they came from and why it all ended up with one left.

Hellboy is a hell of a comic, the story of Hellboy or his birthname "Anung Un Rama" is an intriguing story about a demon that fights against evil forces such as witches, nazis, and many other enemies. There is a slice of regret in not reading these comics until now. I don't know about you but I certainly love the art direction they are going with in the comics and the storyline itself. It was an intriguing in the first comic so far, I intend to read further then move onto the movies because right now I am missing out.

I have heard about the game, never played it but I have heard the execution of the its entirety with the visuals and story itself. Arkham Asylum in its comic version was an interesting read for me. Looking through it I was surprised in the direction that was taken, especially the difference in how certain characters stood out from each other when it came to the artist. The Joker's face was unsettling and looked like a brush had swiped over his face, Batman is the darkness so he is primarily a part of it throughout the comic where you can barely get a read on his face, and the rest of the characters just stand out from the rest with interesting facial features. That pulled me in including the story and its direction.

A Perspective I Never Expected - Maus Book 1 & 2

As people have mentioned, "Maus" brought the graphic novel back into the literary marketplace, I finally understand the cause. Artie who is the son of Vladek comes home to find his father has a story of how he lived in Czestochowa. This of course turns into how he met his mother who back then had problems with depression which he ended up taking her to get treated. Upon this whole travel, he discovers that rise of nazism around Europe. His own factory is destroyed, he fights as a soldier but gets kidnapped, and through certain events everyone in the family from him to Anja's family are sent to concentration camps. A lot happens that I can't even imagine people had to go through back then, lives are lost but Vladek and Anja manage to make it through everything. Leading to the future, it turns out Artie is somehow mad at his father for her mothers death, including that he burned all his mother's journals from the war. All in all, it was an interesting read and wor...

What I see with "Une Semaine de Bonte"

1) A beggar that sat at the center of everything in a small town up the mountains slowly took out a golden shiny rooster on a ball from her dress as people continued to walk past her. Some began to take an interest in her, as she began to pick herself up and dance overshadowing the tiny object. As more people continued to crowd around her waiting to seem some interesting show like the jugglers or performers, the object began to shine. The ball suddenly threw a burst of lighting in every direction hitting every single person, one by one everyone started to collapse as she continued to dance. 2) The door that led below the castle had finally opened after what seemed centuries. A man held a women who looked to be dying, could the books be true or was it all a myth? Rushing through the dark and dusty hallway, a light at the end started to build up. The light blinded him the second he passed the torches and found himself in a room, across from him was a man in a dark cloak. Could this h...
