Probably CoB, but that was the first so that might be part of the reason. I really like your black and white stuff.
Although I love the colour and collage, after a while the lace and feathers start to bore me. I can put more of myself in the b/w art if you know what I mean.
I'm re-reading now so my opinion on this might change.
btw are you going to the Paris convention? If you will I will. _________________ stien |

My favorite is Scarab.
It was funny, tragic, and full of tragedy.
Plus Rick's art didn't hurt either.
Metamorphosis is a close second
Masks of the Noh are third
Circle of Blood is fourth
Dreams and Skin Deep close it out.
Of course I fucking love all of the stories.

I appreciate all the feedback so far
Out of curiousity, when you read the trades do you also read the introduction? How about the afterword?
Is the afterword and commentary on the story stuff helpful or intersting to you? Or do you not really bother with it? |

I always read the introductions. I will admit that I always start the afterword and commentary but rarely finish them - I usually skim them. They are pretty dense and by that point I'm either (a) worn out from the great read or (b) itching to get to the next one. Now I feel all guilty and shit....  |

I bought all those hardbacks from ya but I've yet to read them because I'm still missing the first one! lol I just can't read them until I have all of them...call me Rainman. So I happily stick to reading all my single issues. _________________ SimplyJD Online - Convention coverage, comic news, interviews, rumors,

Normally I don't read introductions and afterwords, but you got some really interesting people to write them. _________________

I read everything. Lots of times they mention something particular to look out for in the introduction. Plus, you never know when I might get mentioned! _________________ If kids can afford crack and guns they can afford comics! - Mark Millar 8/3/04 |

I read the intro and afterword becuase they tend to be interesting.
I love all these stories, but Dreams always seems to stand out a little more. _________________ Pain is a cleanser, pain is a cleanser.
