The good old days

Mobile Suit Gundam Wing brings such nostalgia! I was so addicted to it. Good times, good times, those were... The "golden age" as they say. I'm only surprised that I actually prefer the english voices for this one. At least now I can watch it in chronological order. 

Yes, my blog layout is stupid and cuts the video off. Just click on it to see it in YouTube.

I'm sorry but this is too awesome for words

Online graphic novels that you need to check out!

The Meek

This is a graphic novel that left me wonderfully surprised and I'm embarrassed that I discovered it only last year. The course of the story seems effortless, yet when you read it-- you can tell the creator put a hell a lot of work into it! In my opinion this could be a movie. It's just that deep and intricate. Besides, the artwork is top-notch. (AND IT'S IN FULL BLOWN COLOR MAN) GO READ IT!

Lackadaisy

First thing first. The 20's. Awesome period. Second: CATS. Two things I love all in one comic. You may be thinking: Cats? Furry comic? What? Noo! -- But seriously. Tracy Butler is so good at drawing these guys that I found myself forgetting they were cats -- they have such personality and wit that it's like reading a comic that has people --- only far more amusing than ever. And she has the period down to every detail, it's amazing! All in all, you HAVE to give this comic a try.

Johnny Wander
You know those little episodic comics you're used to reading in the newspaper with the little jokes in them that make you laugh? Well, Johnny Wander is one of those, only BETTER and more epic. The characters are the very creators and their social circle, as they chronicle the many bizarre and amusing things that happen in their lives. There hasn't been one strip that hasn't made me laugh out loud. Or giggle. :-3

Roza: The Cursed Mage
Once again, here is a comic where a lot of work/LOVE was put into it. A great spin on the fantasy genre! I don't know what else to say, for I feel like I'll be repeating myself over again. D: Might I mention it's also in color! (although the most recent pages aren't. but they are still awesome!) It's a story with just enough humor and adventure to keep you reading.

Phoenix Requiem
This story is played in the Victorian era, but with a supernatural twist!  Yet again, an artist that is so kind in coloring her pages. (We are so spoiled!) Suspense and romance are its main focus. As you can see as the list grows longer I find myself more at a loss at what else to say. AAH. NO. FORGIVE ME.

The Dreamer
This is a webcomic that normally wouldn't be to my liking because of the art style. Yes, I am normally not a fan of the whole classical american comic art style. But this is such an original concept that it won me over. The story is about a 17 year old girl, high school senior who starts having vivid dreams about a man called Alan Warren, a soldier that served during the Revolutionary War in 1776. Full of adventure, romance and war, what more could you want? And what better way to learn some good old american history?


Ok, I must retire. I could put up some more comic recommendations but I think it'd be pushing it tonight. Check out one of these guys and tell me what you think! Ta-ta! ;9 (Click on the banner to get to their respective website!)




EDIT: 

Hanna Is Not a Boy's Name
It slipped my mind to mention this one. LAST ONE TONIGHT I SWEAR. This comic is pure awesomeness. It has a great, quirky personality with a wonderful sense of humor. Vampires, zombies-- supernatural galore -- it doesn't take itself too seriously... at first. Then the story gets really interesting! I particularly love the coloring technique, which is very free spirited. And the artwork and panelling. AND EVERYTHING. Anyway, just feast your senses.

I'll mention some more comics tomorrow perhaps...
