Since I am down with whatever cold bug that is going around, I am going to catch up on my comics. I plan on spending more time here and less time on FB this year. I‘ve missed the fun and positivity of this community. Happy New Year! ❤️❤️

#BookMail Pt3 My #BlameItOnLitsy book for #LittenLoveBingo #LLB19 This came Tuesday, I was saving it for the next readathon but I couldn‘t resist. How can I pass up steampunk? Set in an alternate England, Lady Mechanika knows very little about her past, only that she woke with mechanical parts in a very bad place. Desperate to find the people responsible, she & her friend Lewis use his inventions to investigate & find the truth.

I snagged a copy of Lady Mechanika #1 by Joe Benítez at Free Comic Book Day 2018. It took me awhile, but I was finally able to give it a read!

@callielafleur - thank you for paying it forward with the opportunity to win these four graphic novels with #ClearingtheShelves1 giveaway!

I thoroughly enjoyed the first four volumes of Lady Mechanika that I checked out of the library. So much so that I plan to buy copies for my own personal library, along with recently published volume 5. The stories are fascinating and the artwork is gorgeous!

callielafleur Oooo I haven't heard of that series! I'll have to check it out! 6y

Finished this last night and really liked it. The artwork was beautiful, although maybe a bit to much emphasis on breasts.

I wish Hoopla had the rest of the volumes 🙁

queerbookreader Oooooo this was a great one. My library only has the first trade so I haven't been able to read the rest tho, womp womp. I know vol four just came out! 6y

tournevis @GypsyKat Question : can I not have an opinion on the boob window? 6y
See All 10 Comments
GypsyKat @tournevis You‘re certainly entitled to your own opinion. But when you decide to voice that opinion in a negative way on someone else‘s post that was positive, it comes off as really rude. 6y
tournevis @GypsyKat Or snarky. Which is what it was. I will not fight here. Litsy is not for fighting. And my opinion of the boob window is not a reflection of you. I actually like you! 6y
GypsyKat @tournevis I agree Litsy is not for fighting, which is why I was thrown by your initial comment. Maybe just keep scrolling next time. 🙃 6y
tournevis @GypsyKat I've lived long enough to know that's not an option. We'll just have to disagree. 6y
GypsyKat @tournevis Really? Scrolling by instead of posting a negative comment on someone else‘s post is always an option for me, and usually one I take. But we can definitely agree to disagree, because we‘re very different people. 😉 6y
TieDyeDude Well, I have no strong opinions on boob windows, but I am a fan of this comic. Strong female characters, engaging story, and amazing art! He also did one called Wraithborn, which I own, but haven't read yet. 6y
GypsyKat @GoodForCirculation I‘m loving it so far! Isn‘t the artwork fantastic? 😊 6y

It occurs to me that Free Comic Book Day is less than two weeks away!!! I‘m not the only one obsessing about which comics I want, am I? Chicago Comics limits you to 5 comics—so I‘m thinking Barrier (Brian K. Vaughan=must have), Avengers/Captain America (why not), Lady Mechanika (because steampunk), Overwatch/Black Hammer (Lemire is awesome) & Crush (part of fabulous series about middle school). Yay! Can‘t wait! Wonder what the kids will pick?!?

Chelleo Never heard of this. Will have to check out our local CB stores to see what‘s happening! Thanks! 7y
TracyReadsBooks @Chelleo I only heard of it last year myself! Visit freecomicbookday.com to see a complete list of the comics available. You can also search to see which of your local stores are participating. I have to say, it‘s a really cool thing! My whole family loves it! 7y

Quite liked the artwork, and the MC is definitely intriguing. But the story seems a little stretched out and it got little bit boring, or it felt like it was kind of dragging on. As much as I may admire the artwork and enjoy the whole steampunk theme (possibly the best thing about this series), I don‘t think I will keep reading.

#30daysofreadathon Day 25: Comics Craze
Husband and I tried to get into the whole shebang of comics, keeping up with every issue the day of release, etc. and we failed (the hour trek by bus to the store did us in). However, I now have a marvelous hoard of comics to show for it! I could probably do only comics for this #readathon

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This new gn was action packed and offered a colorful look at the Mexican Day of the Dead festival and cultural beliefs. The plot of this story was solidly entertaining and left things open for further series installments. Loved the intensity and pop of the illustrations. I did, however, find some of the pages were a little hard to make out because there was just too much going on or too many details to discern.

monkeygirlsmama Wouldn't this character's look make for a kick ass Comic Con costume? I'm so dressing up this way the next time I get to go to a con. 7y

Although I found some plot points difficult to follow (mainly due to arrangement of panels), overall I enjoyed this steampunk story of the badass title character pursuing leads about how and why she was made into a mechanical woman by person(s) unknown. No resolution of the overall issue, but enough to keep me interested and moving on to volume 2.

This volume is beautifully drawn and colored. The story is interesting and mysterious, but it suffers from being rushed. Overall, it was a fun read and I recommend it to any Steampunk wealth!

If you're interested in steampunk, humans fused with machines, badass heroines with giant boobs, and some of the most gorgeous artwork I've ever seen in a comic, check out this first volume in the Lady Mechanika series.

LizGotauco Oh this JUST came in at my library today! This year this series has a comic for free comic book day! 8y

Beginning #litsypartyofone a little bit early in the afternoon with this graphic novel, before I go see my nephew for the first time since surgery. (Although, it's kind of a party of two, since the hubby is reading in the same room)

This was awesome. My beef with a lot of steampunk is that it's like "LOOK AT ME IM STEAMPUNK ARENT I SO COOL AND ORIGINAL" and it's super annoying. Is it possible for books to try way too hard? This comic isn't like that. It's more "hey, I'm steampunk, it's whatever, check me out if you want". This comic gets that steampunk is done a lot. Idk if that makes sense. But it wasn't obnoxious like a lot of steampunk I've enountered. A+

readinginthedark That's usually my problem with steampunk, too! "Look at how awesome I am because I called myself steampunk..." 8y

Lady Mechanika vol 1

Finally got around to reading this 😉 I definitely enjoyed the artwork and the thrill of a steampunk setting. Story-wise, it's pretty straightforward and adventurous. Can't wait to read the next volume - whenever it shows up in stock 😆

#comics #graphicnovel #ladymechanika #steampunk

Ellsbeth I had two new comic titles I went to order in the last few months on Amazon that were out of stock. I wonder if they just really run out or if they are trying to push more people onto their Comixology service. 8y
Serotonin @Ellsbeth It could be, but I hope not. My hubs does both the Comixology service and hard copy purchases. I'm thinking the "out of stocks" are for the titles from lesser known publishers? 8y
