Name: Nick Cosh
Bio: I just got back after being away for 10 years. Reason was I was seriously disappointed with comics of that era. I had collected Sandman and Hellblazer but there was nothing else, Love & Rockets had ended so I felt it was a good time to stop. Then 10 years later the BBC were showing a program on the best of British comics and comic creators. People like Alan Moore, Bryan Talbot and Neil Gaiman were being interviewed and this renewed my interest. Loves: Alan Moore's Swamp Thing issues (in fact anything by Mr. Moore), Anything by Frank Miller including Ronin and early Daredevil. Neil Gaiman, Bryan Talbot, Warren Ellis and the Hernandez Bros.Stop the Press!! I think I have fallen in love with the Trade Paperback...no more adverts!

Everyone has a stack, I have a stack of stuff I have bought or told to buy as they are great books, FROM HELL i collected when it first came out but never read it until i watched one of your podcasts telling me i should read it! so I am although a bit slowly. Josh, you have the same tastes as me comic wise i think? so i will tell you that Fafhrd and the gray Mouser is a great read and I hope you will love it, I wish there was more than just the 4 issues (or i think one TPB). Mignolas artwork is REALLY nice.... and Chaykin's writing makes you wanting more (i also have found Chaykins later work "patchy"). Please just read it you wont be disappointed. Love and Rockets what can you say that hasnt already been said. I loved the early issues especially Jaime's stories, its not something you can just pick up only because I feel you need to read a good chunk if not all of it in one sitting if possible to get the most from it.
I am not a critic so i cant give you some insightful commentary i just know what i like and those two books i can read again and again
Sorry about this but I have one for your pile to put back on, RONIN (that Frank Miller book), i have watched all the vidcasts and all the podcasts possible and havent heard you mention this book once. This is a GREAT book!!!
