    Default Getting Into Comics

    Until very recently, I had completely ignored comics as a medium for storytelling. Then I read Understanding Comics, by Scott McLoud. It was a fascinating book that really sparked my interest. I checked out a few different comics.

    The ones I liked include ...
    • Conan.
    • The Sandman.
    • Alabaster: Wolves.
    • Hellboy.
    • Arkham Asylum: a Serious House on Serious Earth.


    Some comics I did not enjoy include ...
    • Everything anime-related that I have seen thus far. The art style irks me for some reason, and I often find the stories to be rather convoluted.
    • The Punisher. Gritty for the sake of gritty bores me.
    • D&D Tie-In Comics.


    Based on that, are there any comics you can recommend me? I would love to see more.
