"Watchmen" advertising contest
So I read the graphic novel Watchmen earlier this year and it was pretty amazing.

Graphic Novel Review: 'Y: The Last Man, Book 1: Unmanned'
My wife rocks. What wife do you know who buys her husband two graphic novels for Valentine’s Day just because she remembered that he once said he’d like to get into that genre? The problem was, I had no idea where to start. There are so many comics out there, so many stories and characters. [...] Continue →
