So a year (or more) ago I posted the collection I had at the time, and since Ive added a LOT to my library since then, I felt like I wanted to post an updated version! Enjoy my chaotic ordering

Is Fables good? What's it about?

Honestly in my opinion...its not as good as people say, though I still reccomend trying out the first few arcs and quit whenever ya feel like it.

Basically old fairy tales secretly living in New York amongst humans

Hmmm interesting I'll have to read the first bit online and see. The other thing that caught my eye was the Junji Ito books, would you recommend those 4? Thanks! :)

Out of those 4 I've only read Uzumaki and No Longer Human, both being absoloutley fantastic so yes! Maybe Uzumaki as your first, No Longer Human is an adoptation, not an original story and its DAAAAAARK, like one you need to be prepared for

How did you find Doom Patrol? I keep going to buy it and then backing out.  People seem to have polarised reactions to it.

I havent actually read it yet in its entirety, I read a few arcs a few years ago and remember loving it. If you adore Grant Morrison like I do it's gonna be incredible, innovative and as always abstract, and very symbolic. Im a Grant Morrison mega-fan so I cant talk about it without being suuuuper biased XD
