I read a handful of Sandman books, like, almost 10 years ago, but like Watchmen couldn't stand the drawings.
Today I just got Akira #1-5 in the mail! (On a Sunday, about 3 days after I ordered them). Domu and Akira #6 will arrive in a week or two; Domu was a 1-2 week ship, while the others were all in stock, so I separated my order to get the first books as soon as possible. These books are like a phonebook each!!BubkRuckus wrote:If you think Akira is too long, or expensive, try picking up Katsushiro's DOMU. Then move on to the real thing once your eyes have been opened.
Gonna go read book 1 now
(And gotta somehow stop myself from spending so much money...)
It's good to see you here, Rob! What else are you into?
I saw an issue of Oeming's Hammer of the Gods a couple weeks ago browsing the local shop with my girlfriend (haven't been in forever since I order everything from Amazon now -- I looked around for, like, half an hour and couldn't find a SINGLE thing I would have wanted, except some Naruto, but the manga looks exactly the same as the anime, and I started watching that a while ago). -- it looks good, though it was a quick look.
I'm still waiting on another order I placed a while back...GITS2, Black Magic, and Powers #6... will probably arrive the same time as the Akira 6 and Domu...
