Does anybody on TP read comics? About a month ago I came across a comic at one of my friends house and was addicted since. It was hard to find them and they aren't in high production but when I get one I'm pretty grateful.

My book of choice is called the red star.

XIII is based on a graphic novel, it has a cool storyline, but I haven't seen the graphic novel anywhere. Graphic novel is like the english version of Manga right? Haha.

Archie Comics. They're great, have you ever seen Betty and Veronica? Let's just say they don't look 16 to me. That's gotta be illegal.

It's the technical term for comicbook.

Try "The walking Dead", which is an awesome series. Then you could just read anything by Alan Moore, like V for Vendetta, or "Top Five", or "The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen", which is better than the movie. Then there is "The Watchman" which is awesome.hmmmm...And well, If you like any of the more action-oriented comics, you might like the Ultimate Spider-man series, which is an awesome re-working of the original spider-man. But yeah, comics are pretty awesome.

A place near me stocks a lot of Vendetta, might pick it up because they are having a sale apparently.
