August 5, 2013 6:32 pm Read the first half of this book in a European release and thought it was fantastic. Can't wait to read the second half hopefully later this year...

August 5, 2013 6:30 pm Only Trillium #1 this week. BQ: Used to work at McDonalds ages ago... looking back at it, the worst I did was eat their food.

July 31, 2013 5:38 pm Goddamn This War shouldn't even have to be mentioned here though. It's one of the best books ever written and should be on everyone's shelf already or somewhere during August. Grab It Was the War of the Trenches too if you haven't already since that's probably the best European stuff you'll find. It's a damn shame Kim Thompson died since Tardi's new book will probably take ages to get a translation now. And dammit... this book about his father in a WW2 prisoner camp is even better than these other two books and that is saying something!! Got TEOTFW on pre-order through FBI. Rubicon and Over The Wall sound like books I would enjoy too. So, nice list!

July 31, 2013 12:22 pm I wasn't surprised just by how slim it was, but also by how tiny. However it totally works for this book as it seems to have been designed that way. The story grabbed me from page one. I love this type of what if stories especially when all this could totally be real. I wish Einstein's secret would be fleshed out a bit more, but then again it keeps you guessing this way and might even trigger your own grey cells to come up with something. Or not of course. One of the best GN's I read this year.

July 29, 2013 5:58 pm ANIMAL MAN OMNIBUS HC BATMAN ANNUAL #2 BATMAN, INCORPORATED #13 BEWARE THE CREEPER TP MORNING GLORIES #29 BQ: Gotta go with heaven too.

July 23, 2013 5:13 pm Great choice!! Lovely read indeed.

July 22, 2013 6:26 pm THE MASSIVE #14 WARS IN TOYLAND HC BQ: I've already seen the original Swedish version of The Bridge, which thus far is far more interesting than the US version, so I'll have to choose between Ray Donavon and Under The Dome. For now Ray Donavon wins, since there's so much to that story. And dammit if Jon Voight delivers an excellent performance, just as the rest of the cast.

July 21, 2013 3:13 am I freakin' hope so. The wait is killing me, especially now that The Score won an Eisner, I want to read it. But I'm patient...

July 20, 2013 6:32 pm Looks good. Looking forward to that Taschen release later this year or beginning of next year that collects the Slumberland story too.
