Is anyone else reading comics (specifically graphic novels)? I used to read comics as a kid, kind of let it fall out after not too long. I need to get to my parents' house and see if I still have an old stash somewhere. Anyway, I decided to rekindle it with a trio of Batman books - Year One, The Killing Joke, and Dark Knight Returns.
I started reading them in that order. I have to say that although the first two were fine books and quite nice, I finished both in quite a short amount of time. They felt more like long comics vs graphic novels. I have to say I'm almost disappointed with them.
I'm not very far into DKR, but holy man this feels like what I was looking for. The story is moving slower, and I feel much more engaged and drawn in. I've watched the two-part animated movie so I know what's up, but I'm still turning the pages with anticipation, and stopping to draw in the art, with its almost expressionistic style.
I need more of this. I need books where the story isn't spoiled for me. Who's got suggestions?
