I think that some of the Deth Sun art work that I've purchased (see my post from a week ago about art) has some of the qualities (happier qualities) of Frank Miller artwork. I thought I'd post my favorite graphic novels. If you simply dismiss these as comic books, you're missing the point and have never exposed yourself to this format of art and story telling. Basically, I see graphic novels as the most complete movie story boards possible. Now that The Matrix has shown that dark, graphic novels (Who else has a #1 copy of The Matrix comic? I do - they were never available for sale - determined to be too depressing) lend themselves to the screen, maybe we'll see The Dark Knight Returns someday too! I've heard that Frank Miller's Batman: Year One is in the works with Ben Affleck as Batman - not a bad choice!
Anyway, if you want to expose yourself to something really creative, gripping, and visually stunning, get yourself a copy.
I'm also looking for suggestions for other good Graphic Novels that I've missed... They should be as good as this one, if that's possible. ;-)
