Warp Graphics Pubns, 1994

The best of EQ

+ Wonderful

This is the last of the great Warp legacy. The new editions are fine, but this one was the most gripping and the last full edition of Wendy's art. Book 8 hs got to be the most emotional of all the series and to get that kind of emotional pull in a graphic novel is outstanding. If you can, please ...

Anne Rice's The Vampire Lestat: The Graphic Novel
Faye Perozich

Ballantine Books, 1991

A classic graphic novel

+ Beautiful adaptation
+ Graphic SF Reader

This is NO substitute for reading the novel, but if you already love the story of Lestat, this is a beautiful version of it worth having. Some it might not be as you imagined it, but most of it is dead on. Much of the dialogue is kept intact but the interesting choices of angles, styles, layout ...

Ascent (Elfquest Reader's Collection, Book 12)
Richard Pini, Wendy Pini, ...

Warp Graphics, 1999

Great book, but get the sequel too!

+ Through a glass darkly... except sometimes
+ Excellent artwork, compelling story. The saga continues!

Since I read this book in it's original form (comic books) I don't know what the black and white version is like, but I loved this story. It's the most intense Elfquest story yet (and there is some gore - probably not suitable for children)! But if you get this book, you should also read it's ...

Marjane Satrapi

Pantheon, 2005

BEST EVER

+ Inside Iran Persepolis 1 & 2
+ Good Insight to a World I Do Not Know

This is the only book that I have manged to read the entire of it in one day! It is a comic book, supper easy read and very educational in terms of knowing different culture. I like Persepolis 2 better than 1. U may wanna watch the movie, as well. It won and nominated for many awards in 2007.
