I think the last Nana volume published in Japan was #21 last March, so you'll probably have quite some time in which to catch up with the series.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08950914293839884461noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8882610517765002247.post-4705219658373903772010-01-13T11:34:43.493-06:002010-01-13T11:34:43.493-06:00I picked up Anchor #1 for Phil Hester at Fallcon a...I picked up Anchor #1 for Phil Hester at Fallcon and liked it a lot! But on the other hand, I'm an evil trade waiter, so I won't get the next few issues until March. But it's a great book!<br /><br />I'd recommen giving Human Target a try Matt. I read the first trade this summer and enjoyed it very much. <br /><br />Wes A.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8882610517765002247.post-68255937080012785472010-01-11T16:05:35.098-06:002010-01-11T16:05:35.098-06:00Well, I certainly liked No Hero.

I really did like that book (as earning a spot in my top ten of 2009 shows).Chad Nevetthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11785622045733202883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8882610517765002247.post-67106198474594371072010-01-11T14:33:47.110-06:002010-01-11T14:33:47.110-06:00If I understand correctly, the Shanower collection...If I understand correctly, the Shanower collection from IDW consists of original stories written by Shanower set in Oz, not adaptations of stories by Baum. I haven't read them but will soon as I can. His take on <i>The Wonderful Wizard of Oz</i> with Young is very possibly the single best adaptation of a story from any other medium into comics form I've ever read, and was my favorite thing published by Marvel in many years. I'd recommend it to any writer on purely technical grounds to illustrate "this is how it's done correctly" as well as to anyone else just for reading pleasure.<br /><br />Yeah, the comic book Human Target might have made a good TV show...but the one they're advertising looks like more of the same old sludge.Richardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01714171897239398438noreply@blogger.com
