Battle Royale- not safe for work. Seriously, I had no idea the manga was that much more graphic than the movie. I still love it, just have to read at home from now on.

Yeah, the BR comic is a bit like that - I actually liked the depth of the story/back story in this one a whole lot - hell, I'm considering actually buying a copy.

I've dl'd a whole bunch of comics again this week.
Right now reading the Ultimate FF/Xmen annual, followed by the Ultimate Xmen/FF annual...kind've a 2 part thing, on the first of 'em now...interesting...

Anyone else looking forward to what happens in "ultimatum"?

House, by Josh Simmons - A neat wordless horror comic. I don’t normally like wordless comics, but this one was good and bleak and makes you feel pretty crushed by the end, which is a fine horror comic in my book.

Cat-Eyed Boy, Vol. 1, by Kazuo Umezu – The first 500+ pages of Umezu’s 1960s horror series about a monstrous boy who follows horror across Japan. While it has some nice moments, it’s not quite as crazy as Umezu’s Drifting Classroom or as quietly eerie as Scary Book. Not bad for Umezu fans, though.

I'm reading the Manga Bible. Some great stories in there, especially near the beginning and right at the end. I really should read some more today, since it's Christmas day...

I just read the TPB of "Violent Messiahs"... interesting..ish...

It's got some touches of philosphy and tries at least a little to make you think "back in the box" rather then the radical sense of symbolism and allegory that comics historically lean on. Anyone read it?

Just started into Brian Azzarello's Joker - seems pretty cool so far.
