Friday!

Let me just drop a few illustrations by Tetsuro Kasahara here, and I'll be on my way ;)

Currently (re)reading Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind by Hayao Miyazaki. Every time I take it, I fall in love with it again. It's such a masterpiece, if you haven't yet read it, read it. You'll be glad you did.

And now we need to redo all those comics..

Everyone should read Maggie the Mechanic by Jaime Hernandez, a volume collecting first stories in the Locas storyline, a part of the quintessential indie comics series Love & Rockets. This volume is telling the adventures of Maggie and her best friend and sometimes lover Hopey.

Everyone should read Ordinary Victories by Manu Larcenet, a seemingly straightforward yet multi-layered story of a photographer in his twenties that moves to the countryside in hopes of dealing with his psychological problems.

Everyone should read: V for Vendetta by Alan Moore and David Lloyd. A tale of the loss of freedom and identity in a totalitarian world, the story follows V, an anarchist revolutionary dressed in a Guy Fawkes mask, as he begins a campaign to bring down the fascist state.

Right now I'm reading Frankenstein, an adaptation of Mary Shelley's novel, illustrated by Georges Bess. This is the second of Bess' horror classics adaptations, and it's a beauty. Hope he makes more of these.
