Eight Comics To Read Before You Die
The San Francisco Chronicles posted an article listing “Eight Comic Books To Read Before You Die“.
I have to say that this article really puts my comic street cred’ to the test. Of the eight comics listed, I’ve heard of all but one of them (that being Y: The Last Man: Unmanned). And of the eight, I’ve only read two (Bone Volume 1: Out From Boneville and The Dark Knight Returns). Needless to say, I’m a bit embarrassed. I do have Watchmen, Marvels, and Daredevil: Born Again on my want list, but I’ve never gotten around to picking them up. I’ve tried Sandman off and on, but for some reason, it just doesn’t stick with me.
A couple of books that I’m surprised didn’t make the list? I would have included V For Vendetta, any Sin City trade, and probably some Will Eisner collection. Maybe Understanding Comics, if you count that as a graphic novel…
