Top Five Graphic Novels
Okay, my brain has gotten rusty. Annoyingly so actually. A few weeks ago I was doing the whole "Top Five X" list thing on Facebook and I listed my Five top graphic Novels.

1. Cages
2. Transmetropolitain
3. Dark Knight Returns
4. Finder
5. Jinx

Last night I started thinking about why these are my top five graphic novels. Because it's nice to have these whole top five lists and all, but they are slightly pointless and unrevealing unless you have some form of explanation to them. So I figured "what the hell, shake of some of the cerebral rust and write about why each of these books deserve such high regard from me." But I'm not going to do quick little things I wants some depth for them so each day next week starting with Jinx and ending with Cages I'll go down my list and tell you why these books should be read, what makes them great and why they touched me as a reader. This also allows me to set up a bit of a challenge for myself and knock the rust off the gears in my head. One "article" a day for me to share here. The other side is I'd also like to see the reactions and open a bit of dialogue on the subjects.

That's it for now.

See you on Monday for Jinx
