I gave this four stars, but my feelings about this book are difficult to coalesce down to a simple numeric rating. I read this with my Readings in the Graphic Novel course, and I agree that it is seminal graphic novel/comic reading. However, there are some things about this book that I didn't care f...

Not my cup of tea at all.

Wow! Visually and in plot, this one packs a punch right off the bat. It's slightly similar to the start of the movie - which was what made me want to read this - but with a twist. Mark Hamill!!!!I really enjoyed how different this was to the movie and I'm eager to read more.

Having already seen the film, I knew what to expect from this comic collection. From a creative team like Millar and Gibbons, this series tells us about a young man recruited into the British Secret Service, what he has to go through to make the grade and various steps in his development. There’s un...

The first time I read Give Me Liberty, it was in the late 1990s. I was working as a sales assistant in a comic specialty shop and the owner had actual copies of single issues of a very hard to find mini-series. It blew me away after I read it and I never thought how beautiful Martha Washington was, ...

The story is dark and gritty, but it suited the story very well. As a fan of the Alien movies is it alwa...

This isn't the best story ever to me, but the depth is amazing. Every person who reads it is sure to see a different angle. Many things are going on, lots of side stories, metaphors galore, symbolism, connections. There's so much here, a person could fall inside and get lost if not careful. This...

There is a reason why this is one of the most well-known and loved graphic novels on the market. Aside from the brilliant artistic renderings, this clearly a prime example of what happens to the comic book when it grows up. It is both mature in content and very intelligent. The author and illustrat...

Unfortunately, this graphic novel doesn't have a synopsis written out on the book. Thus leaving the "about" section I usually include, bare.I first saw the movie back when it was in theaters. I didn't really remember a whole lot about it, but I remembered that I really enjoyed it. When it came time ...

O Strażnikach zostało już chyba powiedziane wszystko co było można i więcej, i wiele razy. I wszyscy, którzy się nimi zachwycali i którzy polecali, i którzy wypisywali rzeczy w stylu 'powieść graficzna wszech czasów' i wciskali ich na listy stu najlepszych tych czy owych mieli rację, bo Strażnicy są...
