Well the two classics you have in there are Watchmen and Dark Knight returns. My personal favourite of the two? Watchmen Although I remember you saying when asking for reading suggestions for it to not be too political. Watchmen is very political
Oh it's a great storyline. Well written and some of the best character studies you will find in any comic. Everyone is perverse or corrupt or soured by their past in some way. It's a fantastic freakshow
You nailed it there...that's what I want: characters!
Hellboy is good, not because of the style of drawing (which is really cool anyway) but because Hellboy himself is an awesomely developed character. Not to mention the actual story is kick ass!
I don't know how Mignola did it, but there is absolutely no problem making the huge suspension of disbelief required. I can't wait to see the movies and find out if they're as good.
But anyway, back to Watchmen. It has the drawing style that I tend to like a little more. I don't know if there's a name for it or what...but it just looks like, well, a comic book!
Keep personal stuff like this to discussion in other threads. It doesn't need its own thread. We're too busy a forum to allow each person to have threads like this.
