5 Good Books To Read - Comic Books
1. Midnight Nation by J. M. Straczynski
To show my point, let's start with Midnight Nation, a dark along with a bit religious comic book describing "the other world," a place where all forgotten and abandoned people and things go.
A police lieutenant David Grey begins to investigate what seems to be a flustering murder and winds up rather differently than he anticipated - held in a shadow world and faced with a challenge to battle for their own soul.
David gets to be a guide named Laurel, he eventually falls deeply in love with her and this act alone will set him off of all his predecessors. After overcoming multiple tests, Grey resents the typical course of action provided by The Other Guy (the Devil) and sacrifices his own soul to prove that hope still exists.
Midnight Nation is a superb comic book and also you don't really need to be religious to enjoy it.
2. From Hell by A. Moore & E. Campbell
Jack the Ripper is well known worldwide for his murders. From Hell offers a different perspective on this whole case, combining imagination and facts in the real world.
Royal prince Albert Victor marries a lady from East End in London and fathers a young child. They are separated after Queen Victoria finds out and actions are being come to sweep this matter and its follow-ups (for example number of prostitutes blackmailing the Crown in exchange for protection) aside.
A highly ranked Freemason named Gull gets involved and as time progresses, gives birth towards the famous Jack the Ripper with previously unseen brutality and bestiality of his murders - however the whole matter is still being hidden to safeguard the interests from the royal family.
Authors perfectly combine their very own ideas with historical facts and also have produced a marvelous comic, that can make you read and browse until you're finished - and you will spend a plenty of time thinking when that occurs.
3. The Sandman: Preludes and Nocturnes by N. Gaiman
Chances are you already know the famous American novelist Neil Gaiman, say because of American Gods or Stardust. Gaiman is extremely good in mixing various genres, creating unusual heroes and what's most significant right now, he is also good on paper comics.
Maybe you have thought about being immortal? Living as much as no more Earth, maybe seeing the Sun eating up our planet... and thus an enchanter named Burgess attempts to capture Death and live forever. By his mistake, he however captures Dream instead.
After decades of imprisonment, Dream manages to finally escape his captor (Burgess' son at that time) and visit a quest to seek his lost items of power. He encounters the Justice league of america, John Constantine the Hellblazer as well as Lucifer himself.
Well, what can I tell you? If you want to imagine Death as a pragmatic, goth girl, you are going to become more than satisfied.
Ok, seriously, Gaiman has once more done an excellent job with developing a weird world and will push your imagination to the limit over and over again before you drop off - and you'll still dream of it anyway.
4. Garfield by J. Davis
Let's switch to a less serious note, shall we? I bet you've already learned about a fat, lazy and sybaritic cat named Garfield, often accompanied by a human named Jon along with a dog called Odie.
Garfield is particularly noted for his laziness, the only thing which get him moving is, well, an abundant lunch or something like that. Another common attribute of Garfield's comics may be the very short story line, most usually just 3 pictures.
The stories vary greatly - you'll find the heroes at the sea, within their home, in the vet; eating, lying, having a telephone call; being bored, watching TV... pretty much whatever you may come track of.
Garfield also had several film adaptations which is very safe to say that he and the friends can provide quality entertainment.
5. Asterix by R. Goscinny
Once when the Roman Empire was vast and no you could challenge the mighty Roman Legions - expect a small Galian village within the Armorica province. Again, I'm certain you are familiar with the stories featuring Asterix, Obelix, a-lot-of-fancy-names-ending-with-ix along with a magic potion.
It is the same genre as Garfield - fun. The main characters often travel outside the major theme, e.g. visit Egypt and deal with Cleopatra. All the time they continue their high spirit, sense for goodness and Obelix also tend to be a bit, shall we are saying, simpler.
The fame of Asterix and his fellow Galls may be shown by the fact that the first French satellite ever launched was named after him - Astérix-1.
