Comic Books
A place to discuss comic books of all types, from old to new, Big 2 to indie, and everything in between.
Floppies, graphic novels, compilations, omnibusses (omnibusi?) are all fair game.
There is only one rule:*
Comic Books is a no judgement zone.
You can talk all you want about how Rob Liefeld is trash, Bob Kane is an asshole, or Frank Miller and Dave Sim’s politics have made them toxic, that’s all good.
If, however, another user is LEGITIMATELY a fan of something you don’t like, that does NOT make them a lesser person. Attack the art for being bad, not the person for being a fan of bad art.
* I lied. There are TWO rules... No piracy. Cover shots? That's good. Interior pages, in moderation? Sure. Full books? Links to pirate sites? That's how we get things shut down. :(
I'm not saying it's been a problem, because it hasn't been.

I had a thinky-thank on this and circled back because I had an idea sitting there in the back of my head and I couldn't bring it to the front. It hit me just a second ago, I think Dash Shaw has dialogue but has large swaths of visual chaos and movement. You can check him out here and consider grabbing his work if you can. Outside of that, there's surely others but I am drawing a blank. I think there are books in general that I have loved that aren't void of dialogue but express quite a bit in their panels. Not Simple by Natsume Ono is one of those novels and just seeing the little bits of it mean quite a bit. It's a dramatic ride though, just an fyi. Also, please consider grabbing it if you're willing. I am baffled as to what that woman can do with line.
While this is a dialogue rich novel, Asterios Polyp was quite an amazing read. While I no longer own it, I think fondly of it (and did so even a couple of days ago). It's just a big chunky boy, and it's hard to keep with - so I gave my copy to a friend who loves it =)
Hope you might like any of these =)
