Frank Miller

Dark Horse, 2005

The best comics i've read!!

+ Frank Miller's Complete Sin City Library
+ WOW

Ok, i'm assuming you know a bit about sin city, so i'll simply say, these books are awesome. I just love the way it's written from the main character's point of view, and how they narrate the story. The drawings are excellent too. Very stylish, almost completely black and white, with the most ...
  
  











  



  
Crisis on Infinite Earths79 reviews
Marv Wolfman, George Perez

DC Comics, 2001

I, for one, believe it lives up to its hype

+ Crisis on Infinite Earths: Still a Masterpiece 23 Years Later

Most readers know the point of this DC "event": over the years the DC universe had become increasingly cluttered with multiple earths and alternate universes. Apart from the Flash (the various incarnations of whom could vibrate into one or another) these universes were for the most part cut off ...

David Michelinie

Marvel Comics, 2008

Iron Man's best story in it's best format

The story is classic by now and known not only to Iron Man fans, so the contex of this book won't be reviewed here. What is worth saying is the top quality paper and wonderfull job done at the colours. Additional credits should be given for the hard cover and the jacket illustration. Every issue ...

Avengers Assemble, Vol. 16 reviews
Kurt Busiek, George Perez

Marvel Comics, 2004

AVENGERS STILL MY FAVORITE TEAM

+ A stellar re-start to a venerable franchise.

The Avengers have always been my favorite Superhero team going back to the early 1970's. They've had consistently good stories without the never ending sub-plots and sub-sub-plots of the various X-men titles. This hardcover graphic novel collects the first 12 issues of the Avengers Volume 3, the ...
