Persepolis

kzmarr — 2024-02-26 04:33:28 UTC

"Tt's a must for anyone interested in topics of war, social class and identity. It follow the story of Marjane Satrapi in Iran during the years of war and revolution. Compelling stuff!"

Blacksad

kzmarr — 2024-02-26 04:34:01 UTC

"A true noir masterpiece told via anthropomorphic characters. Explores corruption, past evil deeds, conspiracy and deceit amongst friends."

The Adventure Zone

kzmarr — 2024-02-26 04:34:41 UTC

"Podcast turned comics. The McElroy family are terrific story tellers and understand the joy of adventure, mayhem and silliness. It's engaging, joyful and sometimes questions the consequences of the hero actions."

The Saga of Darren Shan

kzmarr — 2024-02-26 04:35:36 UTC

"I wouldn't normally recommend a manga as many aren't great for concise stories but this is based on a written novel by Darren Shan and it's a world known series about a boy that becomes a vampire to save his friend. Ideal for topics of betrayal, unwilling main characters and the concept of born evil."

Fish and Chocolate

kzmarr — 2024-02-26 04:36:14 UTC

"This is personal favourite. There are three short stories all on dark topics, particularly the last one that deals with grief, the loss of a child, depression and moving on."

Fables - Legends in Exile

kzmarr — 2024-02-26 04:36:54 UTC

"Fables follow the lives of fable characters that fled their homeland to live in the human world and have done for centuries. It's a long series but this first book is a good self contained story following Bigby Wolf, the big bad wolf turned detective who needs to solve the murder of Rose Red, snow White's sister. Excellent story for redemption characters, character dynamics and public domain usage."

The Comic Book History of Comics

kzmarr — 2024-02-26 04:38:19 UTC

kzmarr — 2024-03-06 19:11:32 UTC

"Little is known about the writer as he's pretty much a recluse from interviews but his works are easily recognised and his ability to convey deep, dark emotions with relatively low emotive characters is impressive. This is a great detective series that has an old fashioned noir theme dealing with loneliness."
