Samuringa posted:Love & Rockets? If you can find a good collection, that is. The tpbs by Fantagraphics are good, they collect the entire series. Also, as a fellow south American, I’m gonna recommend you Bookdepository.com It doesn’t charge shipping and in most cases it’s cheaper than amazon once you convert to your local money.

Connellingus posted:I'm trying to refresh myself on the paltry amount of Spanish I learned in high school, and to that end I'm trying to acquire as much reading material in the language as possible. Can anyone recommend some really good graphic novels that were originally published in Spanish? Bonus points if you can point me in the direction of a good place to buy them online as well. They can be from Spain, Latin America, or wherever. Cuban history and human rights under the Castro regime are of particular interest to me, and from a quick Google I can see a few graphic novels dealing with those subjects, but those appear to have been written originally in languages other than Spanish. Los Años de Allende (by Carlos Reyes and Rodrigo Elgueta) and El Cardenal (by Kote Carvajal and Luis Inzunza) have to do with the years before and during the Pinochet dictatorship in Chile. There’s also Blacksad, by two Spanish creators, but published originally in French. There’s a Spanish translation though.

Dejan Bimble posted:I did my annual dip in and read Matt Lesniewski's Crimson Flower #1 and Copra 38, that was good poo poo. Anything individually stylish and kinetic like that anyone could recommend? Orc Stain by James Stokoe is also a good comic, but I don't remember if Stokoe ever finished the series.

Big Bad Voodoo Lou posted:G.I. Joe is more of a morally ambiguous organization in this continuity, especially its leadership (Hawk). Everyone is shades of gray, but some bad guys are definitely worse than others. I hope you still find some enjoyment in this. I had to stop reading. Fuso's art was bad enough but the new person they had doing the art to replace him for a few months is atrocious and the writing was not strong enough to carry it. Narzack posted:
For horror manga, you cant go wrong with Junji Ito. Luckily, there's been a boom about him in the last two years so his stories and shorts are easy to find. Give Uzumaki a try. Also, The Drifting Classroom by Kazuo Umezu is a classic and it got a new edition in english some months ago, so it's also easy to get now. Hideshi Hino is also a classic horror manga author. His art is more "childish" and seems unpolished at first, but it really works to accentuate the horror in his stories, which can be intense as gently caress. He directed Guinea Pig: Flower of Flesh and Blood, based on one of his manga stories. Vincent fucked around with this message at 18:01 on Feb 9, 2022 |
