keeno!

Yeah, of the new comics... I still like twists on old school.

When I got my day job, I started doing something very important... filling in my graphic novel collection. There are things I've always wanted, but never had the cash to toss in on them. I made a deal with a comic shop, letting them know I was going to buy a SHITLOAD of stuff... so far I've bought the bookshelf editions of
Cerebus
Preacher
Sandman
Bone
Astro City
Clerks and Jay and Silent Bob
Strangers in Paradise
Transmetropolitan

I've pondered picking up some of the newer Batman bound sets... which are worth reading?
