I don't really read these because I am a stickler for regular novels, but my dad brought home a rejected copy from his printing plant.

It's so beautiful! and some of the stories are great. There is this story about a cute little fox and he winds up getting killed. This is gonna sound emo but I almost cried. I don't know why it was so touching.

Wow, I hadn't realized that there were any GN adaptations of his work. I'll have to check those out.

No, there aren't, I just misinterpreted the title of this thread. I thought "graphic" meant, you know, gross/weird graphic, not picture graphic.

I actually looked it up, and Lullaby and Invisible Monsters were both adapted in the GN format.

I ran into Grant Morrison last saturday. what do you say to Grant Morrison? All i managed was 'hey' as I passed him on the street. At least I didn't get all fanboy on him and start asking questions about Arkham Asylum, I guess. :lol:

Morrison's a guy whose work I need to read more of. The only work of his I've read is Arkham, Hellblazer, and WE3. I've been mening to get Animal Man but I haven't gotten around to it.

i would have asked, "can you tell me what the fuck happened in 'The Invisibles' please, especially during the last chapters of Volume 3?"

I just bought the Watchmen and the Dark Knight Returns.

This thread with the "Greatest American Novel" thread are killing me.
