Kylie Posted January 30, 2012 Posted January 30, 2012 Hi Kenny! Yep, I've read Watchmen. Actually we chose it for a reading circle discussion a few months ago. I thought it was terrific. I want to read The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen next. Quote

kasalaba Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 I don't know why but i can't call them Graphic Novels i just can't. I love comics , i do! But they are not novels ..... Quote
bobblybear Posted August 17, 2012 Posted August 17, 2012 I'm currently reading The Walking Dead series, and loving it. I bought the compendium, Volume 1, which is the first 8 books, as it's much much cheaper than buying them separately. I'm hooked on the TV series and it's interesting to compare the two. Quote
WZCreation Posted October 12, 2012 Posted October 12, 2012 (edited) I agree with you PP it is certainly better to read something than nothing, and comic books certainly have their place, but, as you said, graphic novels are a whole new art form; I wouldn't compare the two. I've tried recently to read a supergirl comic (having loved her when I was young) and really didn't enjoy it at all, it lacked any real substance. Whereas, generally, the graphic novels I have read have been as absorbing and as gripping as any novel; I would definately recommend that you give them a try!

Richard The Ref Posted January 17, 2013 Posted January 17, 2013 I have kept hundreds of comics since i was a kid. Have loads of X-men, Avengers, Fantastic 4, Spider Man etc. Have one X-men comic from 1967. Not in very good condition. Does anyone have any idea where i could get this valued? Quote
Wipples Posted August 15, 2013 Posted August 15, 2013 Sometimes there is nothing more exciting than a well depicted Graphice Novel. (well, maybe chocolate ) Watchmen The Trial Crime and Punishment The Walking Dead all up to date. Maus I and II Persepolis Some Manga from daughters collection. Quote
Athena Posted August 15, 2014 Posted August 15, 2014 Are there many people around still who read comics and / or graphic novels and / or manga or am I the only one? I've been reading more manga lately now that my boyfriend's things are in the Netherlands with us. I also have some graphic novels on my TBR (mainly those based on 'text'books) and some comics (mainly to re-read old Donald Ducks and some comics I bought from HumbleBundle). I have to say I prefer 'text'books but I do like to read something with pictures now and then. Quote
Michelle Posted August 15, 2014 Posted August 15, 2014 I like the idea of graphic novels, but I'm quite fussy. I have The Walking Dead Compendiums which I like, and I recently reviewed this one: http://bcfreviews.wordpress.com/2014/07/27/the-truth-is-a-cave-in-the-black-mountains-by-neil-gaiman/ Quote
