' The best comic books, and I can only five choose? ' To a line in his story to bring decision Jorick, one of the owners of comic book shop Se?or Hernandez, one from each flow to choose comic book.He explains: 'Uiteraard there are just like in music mountains genres to stand out, but these are pretty much the main lines. '
What are requirements for a comic book? ' The building should be alright. That means a good panel distribution and so a good building pages, including cliff hangers. Also, the characters have depth or conform to the traditional properties, such as superheroes. Further plays the function of the book has an important role.Graphic novels are often a bit more depth and character development, such as Black hole or Blankets.European comics and especially series work have more the function of a "fun read": the characters are often some platter and you get often the same dress presented, which does not mean that this would be of lower quality. '
5. The graphic novel: From Hell – Alan Moore, Eddie Campbell
"This huge pill narrates about Jack the Ripper.Alan Moore is a gifted writer and very well-read man In From Hell he shares his own vision about who was Jack the Ripper might have been.In order to convince are located at the back of the book more than one hundred pages of explanations, choices and credentials. From Hell is a very spicily story where many people will not easily through it. However, it is fantastic and very attractive and told dark drawn. "
4. The comic: Preacher – Garth Ennis and Steve Dillon
'Doordat some angels do watch Gets a priest in a small village in the United States accidentally same forces as God.By an old gunfighter revive try the angels this priest of his powers. However, This is so angry at God that he tries to get his grams. Nice detail: his best friend is a vampire to alcohol addict and his ex-girlfriend a failed rent killer. These three Nations are experiencing the most bizarre adventures, especially if they are on the skin be seated by a group of French religious fanatics who the divine powers for themselves to try to claim. In my opinion the best work of both Ennis as Dillon. '
3. the European comic: Kraa part 1: the abandoned Valley – Sokal
'Beno?t Sokal is known for his Inspector Canardo-series. However, this is a completely different Cup of tea. The book, which is situated in Klondike, narrates about an Indian family that is likely to be expropriated by large landowners. They indulge their desire to the West on everything they encounter when they try a dam.What they forget is that there are already hundreds of years a family lives in relevant Valley Eagles.The abandoned Valley is a beautiful realistic and mythical story. '
2. the manga: Black Blizzard – Yoshihiro Tatsumi
'Tatsumi is relatively unknown in the West, in Japan he has about the same status as Tezuka, the author of, among other things, Buddha, Black Jack and MW. Black Blizzard is a 1950s crime noir in Japanese, a delicious pulpig story that, of course, is full of excitement and thrill. It is perhaps not his best work but so wonderfully told you there in one jerk through flies. That the book has the appearance of a cheap pocket from the 1960s, is done so aware that only adds to your understanding of the development of the writer. If Black blizzard appeals to you, you should of Tatsumi certainly Pushman & other stories, good-bye and A Drifting Life read. '
1. The classic: Maus – Art Spiegelman
'Uiteraard there are many must reads, in all styles and languages, of the Incal to Blueberry, Naruto to Buddha, The Dark Knight Returns to Watchmen and V for Vendetta.However, the only comic which many really not in the closet may be missing is Maus.Maybe a too logical and obvious choice, but still …
'Maus is the best-selling comic book of all time and also the only comic ever that a Pulitzer Prize for literature has won.Art Spiegelman interviews in a span of several years his father about his experiences in Auschwitz.The way in which he survive from his father, but at the same time his own feelings towards his father describes, is brilliantly.You forget that after half a page to you – the Germans – Cats and mice – Jews – is watching.The chosen way of imagining works perfectly, the narrative is overcome with emotion and sincere.For this reason is the way Mirror man lost his job so special.In short: read!
