Volume 3 of 'The Walking Dead'. Good stuff. Stays true to Zombie lore.

Just finished Sin City - Marv's story. I read it mainly to see if I would be able to cope with the violence if I went to see the film. Bloody good book, but I don't think I will be running down to the cinema - I think it would be too much for me in live action.

QUOTE (ipse dixit @ Jul 1 2005, 12:06 PM) Nah, s'alright - it's very stylised. I really would like to see it - I loved the book. At least now I know in advance where the really nasty bits are.... It is the bit where Marv catches up to Elijah Wood's character that will bother me - I don't mind the uber-violence as such, it is the gore that I am really squeamish about. Urgh. Might have to wait for the DVD so I can hide behind a cushion! |

I haven't seen Sin City but apparently someone rips off someone elses bollocks, the details were very sketchy.

For Miller, I'd say Elektra Assassin is my fave.
Last comic I read was the latest issue of Shaolin Cowboy. Narrating horses, kung fu crabs and evil babies...it's a little weird. |

I have been reading the 'New X-Men' series from the Marvel universe. Very interesting and is keeping me well interested. Plus, they sure know how to churn out the honeys.
