You know what?

I don't take enough pictures. I think I'm going to start carrying around my compact camera and make an effort to document what I do. Yeah...

What's my age again

So I've been a fan of Neil Gaiman for a while. I loved his novels: American Gods, Anansi Boys and Good Omens. I enjoy science fiction so these books were a joy to read. Then I started to dig around to see what else he has written. Coraline (which is playing at the theaters - IN 3D!) and Graveyard Book which are in the juvenile fiction genre. They're kind of like horror for kids so it's OK for adults to read, right? Digging a little more, I found that Neil wrote for comics books. Now, I'm not a comic book fan. Not that I have anything against them; it's just that I've never really picked one up. Superhero's are great but corny. Plus I kind of associate them with a 13 year old boys. Anyway, digging around I find that Neil Gaiman wrote a comic book called Sandman.
I hadn't read this but I heard it is incredible so I went over to DC comics website and downloaded the first issue (for free); it is quite good. I even went to the library (tough economic times, gotta save every penny) and found Marvel 1602; another comic book he authored and I loved it. So I guess I like comics books - or graphic novels I guess they're called.

Looking around that DC site, I found another one that I've become addicted to; Y The Last Man. Here a link about it on Wikipedia:

This one caught my attention on several fronts.
One, it's written by a LOST writer, Brian K Vaughan;
Two, on a recent episode of LOST, Hurley was reading it;


and Three, a woman, Pia Guerra, did the art for it (girl power!).
So... check it out. You can download the first issue at the DC Comics/Vertigo site

It's pretty good
