This blog has been on hiatus for a while, but I'm back... this time with comic books.
I've grown up with different kinds of comic books, from Archies to Tinkle, Doga, and Phantom. Below is my take on some of the best trade paperbacks and comic book series I have read in my short and torrid love affair with comic books. They are no necessarily in order of preference...
Alan Moore's "The Watchmen"
I think everyone is quite familiar with this series. In fact, with the movie craze on, if you're not, you soon will be... Needless to say one of the finest comic books written. It was the first comic to be called a "graphic novel" and the only comic book to win the Hugo Award for science-fiction. 'Nuff said.
Frank Miller's "Batman: Year One"; Ed Beaubarton's "The Man Who Laughs"; Jeph Loeb and Time Sale's "The Long Halloween", "Dark Victory"; Jeph Loeb and Jim Lee's "Hush"; Brian Azzarello's "The Joker"; Alan Moore's "The Killing Joke"; and Frank Miller's "The Return of the Dark Knight" in this particular order is the best set of Batman graphic novels in the market.
