    What's Akria?

    Is it a magna or an amine?

    It's Akira!

    You'd have to be living in an Amish community under a rock reading only Amish comic books for the last 30 years to not know Akira.

    Incidently, "Barn Raising Servent of God Man" is a great comic.

    K, cause I'm easily confused, and I thought it was common knowledge of what it was.

    I was right with this until I read the last pages of issue 3.
    I read it over the weekend and I see where you're coming from Spence. I have a feeling that Issue 4 is going to make me hate Quesada.
    I have a feeling issue 3 already did that for me.

    Akira was one graphic novel that changed my view on graphic novels as a whole. It gave me hope.

    Hmm, you might have a point there...but isn't it funny how we'll both end up purchasing issue 4 anyway?

    DAMN! I get to this thread days late and had to go through every post to see what was being suggested and of course everything mentioned I had in mind and slowly my list became smaller and smaller. I'm just going to put one out there for you Erin, but it is a must read. One of the most amazing projects done by one person and one person alone.
    Jeff Smith's Bone
    Its cinematicly brilliant. You can get the complete collection in graphic novel format and it is HEFTY. Just go get it.
    Ok I'll toss another one out there and this one sure is to cause commotion. It's flipping disgusting but I love dirty dirty books and thats Grant Morrisons The Filth



    "As for gunslingers, Roland," Cuthbert says, "I am here. And we are the last."


    When two fit, it makes you think
    I got the cute one, my woman
    She says, "Lovin's all I bring"
    And it's her loving that's a wonderful thing.
    Lovin' yes we are, it's such a wonderful thing
    When two fit it makes you think
    See us both in the black
    She lays on me so relaxed.
