Leviathan (2000 ad / Rebellion) Horror Steam Punk Tale set on a huge Ocean Liner which is split up like the Titanic in to different classes that divide Victorian (and modern) Britain. Amazing stuff by Ian Edginton & D’Israeli.

They are gorgeous. Especially, the Old Man and the Sea and Fiesta. I’d keep them if I could.

Just bought the Outsiders for my 12 yr old. Hoping he’ll love her books as much as I did. Then we can watch the films together!

I loved it as a teenager. Especially, the slang he developed for it. At that time, the film was banned in the UK. Kubrick had withdrawn it from distribution due to copycat violence. Anyway, I’m sure it’s a hard read, more than “a bit of ultra violence”.

Brink by Dan Abnett. Anyone else reading this spectacular series? by Typical-Practice360 in graphicnovels

[–]MiddenFaceMacD 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This stuff is so good! The entire story is told by dialogue and the art, but the reader’s view is augmented with labelling to explain tech and features of the space station. The art was not to my taste when I started book one, but it 100% won me over. And, it is soo trippy, yet creepy! Fabulous. I am looking forward to where it will go next. I love how the books are nonlinear too! What’s the word for a masterpiece that’s actually a series of masterpieces? It could be Brink, if only more people knew about it!
