What comic have you always intended to read, but haven't yet gotten around to reading yet?
For me it would be Love & Rockets. I have both Palomar and Locas on my bookshelf, but they're both such massive tomes that I haven't gotten around to digging into them yet. I think they intimidate me a little...
What about you? Which comic have you always heard good things about, but haven't yet read?
I haven't read Locas, but Palomar was amazing. I got it from my local library, and thoroughly enjoyed it.
ReplyDeleteAs to something well-praised that I haven't read. Hmmm... well, I haven't read the Dark Phoenix Saga or Days of Future Past, do they count?
Too many to list. I have a rather tall stack of mini and maxi-series waiting for me. That's what happens when I wait til I have the full story before reading.
ReplyDeleteCerebus.
ReplyDeleteI'm interested to see what it's like, but I'm the kind of person who has to finish any storyline I start (assuming I like it). I did that with Sandman and Akira, so I know that if I buy Cerebus book 1, I've pretty much committed myself to eventually buying books 2-16.
I have had the collected edition of Dave McKean's Cages for years, but I still haven't read it.
ReplyDeleteLeague of Extraordinary Gentlemen - I've checked vols 1 & 2 out from the library at least 3 or 4 different times, and have never been able to sit down and read it. The weird thing is I love work by Alan Moore... I don't know why this is. I think I need help :)
ReplyDeleteConcrete. The entire Strangers in Paradise series (read vol 1). Crisis on Infinite Earths. Bone. American Elf.
ReplyDeleteI think I've read too many zombie/horror comics recently; I've been dreaming of zombies!
