Graphic Novels
I'm wondering if any other TLO members are fans of graphic novels, as I am. Please don't call them comics; you'll make me feel unsophisticated!
Graphic novels are a huge field, so I won't even pretend to have a comprehensive knowledge of them, but I definitely have a few favorites. My picks are not so much "Ligottian" as they are simply the picks of someone who likes TL's fiction - whether the relationship goes deeper than that I don't care to speculate. Here are my favorites in no particular order; I'm curious to see what other TLO members may come up with. Enki Bilal - especially The Nikopol Trilogy and The Hunting Party. Rick Geary - his Treasury of Victorian Murder series. Richard Corben - basically anything by, but his adaptation of Hodgson's The House on the Borderlands is a good recent title. Jim Woodring - author of the Frank series. This is the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, if you ask me. Amazing stuff! At one time I was a fan of Moebius (aka Jean Giraud) but eventually found his stuff to be a bit too sunny and hopeful. Some of those hippies just never got over the Summer of Love! | |||||||||||
