Comics of 2012
Jun. 29th, 2013 10:31 pmIn 2012, I read 15 volumes of graphic novels.
Series I continued to enjoy:
Runaways - I love these kids, smart and funny and brave, trying to deal with their powers and their place in the universe, plus everything the universe throws at them. This is a series that deserves to be continued.
Yotsuba&! - Yotsuba is a joy. I look forward to the single volume of this that comes out every year. This time, she discovers pizza, bubbles, and cameras.
Standalones I enjoyed:
X-Men: The Dark Phoenix Saga - It was cool to finally get to read this classic story, but I think it might be one of those things where you had to be there at the time, to get the full impact.
X-Men: Magneto Testament - Magneto's childhood during the rise of the Nazis and the Holocaust. As disturbing and powerful as it sounds.
