Tintin in the Land of the Soviets

The book is valuable for two reasons, firstly it is interesting to compare how TinTin developed over the years, and secoundly for anyone with an interest in Soviet history, how the orginal stories in Le Soir (belgium newspaper)in the 1930's and the book, were and still are, portrayed by some as mere anti communist propoganda.

It is chilling that despite millions of people being murdered in Gulags or shot out of hand, that the book which falls short of showing the full horrors of lenin ... Read More:

The Soul Society Arc of the story has been going since around volume six. Thirteen volumes (around 2600 pages) have been building to this one and it definitely doesn't disappoint. All the fights that have been brewing come to a climax spanning the whole volume. In one of the bests twists I've seen in a long time as well, the villain is revealed. It's brilliantly written and is always engaging.
Gin becomes more intriguing, Momo becomes more tragic, Kisuke becomes more mysterious (if that was possible). ... Read More:

I know there really isn't any point in me writing this review because you probably all ready love the series, and as this is volume five, assuming you are up to four, you will need to buy this one if you ever hope to progress beyond it; but... I just love Fruits Basket so much! I had to write a review for it!

So, this volume finds Tohru and the gang going on holiday for a couple of chapters. We learn more about the existing characters, and as always, we meet a bunch of new ones. The art is fantastic as usual ... Read More:

Spring-heeled Jack

As a 14-year-old, some may think that this book is a bit too young for me, but that is not so. We chose to review this book in my Philip Pullman fan club, and I found it fantastic beyond my expectations. Philip Pullman merges fantastic plots with mesmerising writing skill, in a book that will have 3 year olds to 103 year olds on the edge of their seats. The story tells of children, eager to escape their cruel orphanage in victorian London to travel to America. But evil Mack the Knife captures their locket which is their only ... Read More:

Asterix in Britain (Asterix (Orion Hardcover))
Best Selling > Books > Comics and Graphic Novels
by: René Goscinny

May 27, 2004
Not the best written story, it's not very inventive and feels quite loose, but is still very satirical, with plenty of references to our very different customs. Our Gallic heroes seem to get quite cross after a while with their cousins from across the water, for being so...well, English! A pacy adventure through Ancient Britain, complete with warm beer and strange customs. Very popular here, for obvious reasons, but I'm not sure if this is even in my top ten.

A gem if you are really into Tintin - it is facinating seeing the work in progress but frustrating not to have the completed story.
