I Kill Giants | Joe Kelly

pick

Devastating!
This is a tale about an angry young girl who sees giants impeding her personal happiness. This one digs deep. It gets to the heart of childhood, grief and growing up. This one is really good and it deserves ‘classic‘ status. Highly recommended!

Cover Volume 1 | Brian Michael Bendis

so-so

Loosely based on the real-life experiences of the comic artist David Mack, this tale of undercover espionage in the art world is very intriguing. It doesn‘t get a high endorsement from me mostly because the art (though gorgeous) doesn‘t quite match the story. Others may be able to overlook this and enjoy the book, however it was too distracting for me.

Batman: The Penguin | John Ostrander, Bill Finger, Doug Moench, Alan Grant

Did anyone else watch the Penguin on HBO? As much as I'm ready for a more light-hearted take on the Dark Knight, Matt Reeves' Batman universe is very compelling. The Penguin had an amazing cast, and they told a great mob story set in Gotham. I'm excited to see how the story continues.

TieDyeDude BTW, I just love Colin Farrell's whole thing in this moment. There are beautiful interviews he's done about his son, he is open about his struggles with addiction and mental health, and he said he watched Pixar movies to get out of the dark headspace from this show. And he is always mesmerizing to watch on screen. 2d

StellaDz Sadly haven‘t watched the show, but Farrell truly stole the show in the movie. An amazing rendition of the Penguin! 2d

Jess I stopped after two episodes because I didn‘t want to be in that head space but will go back to it because the acting was fantastic. Watching Rivals on Hulu and it is more my speed right now (rich people behaving badly with comedy and David Tennent ❤️). 1d

Amiable I watched the entire series! I‘m not a comics reader/viewer so I had no idea about any of the backstories. I was just engrossed in Colin Farrell‘s and Cristin Milioti‘s incredible performances. They each deserve an Emmy! (edited) 1d

Liatrek Loved it! Sofia was an amazing character and I loved that they let the Penguin be 100% villain. The show deserves so many awards 🏆🏆 1d

Liatrek @Amiable YES!!! 1d

JacqMac It was good! The actors are all fantastic. 1d

TieDyeDude @Jess Totally understandable. It was a very dark show about a master manipulator gaslighting everyone until he reaches the height of power *sigh* I was able to turn off that part of my brain though because it was Batman-adjacent 😂 I hadn't heard of Rivals; can't go wrong with Tennent! 1d

TieDyeDude @stellaDz I hope you get the chance to check it out. Farrell is amazing, as is the rest of the cast 1d

TieDyeDude @Amiable They did some fun things with the character. I think the mother-relationship is mostly unique to the show
@Liatrek @Jacqmac I've been following Milioti since she opened the Broadway show Once. I'm so glad she was cast in this and crushed it! Honestly, everyone on screen crushed it 1d

Serotonin My brother highly recommended me to watch this show. Alas, I no longer have access to Max 😞 1d

Beneath the Trees Where Nobody Sees | Patrick Horvath

pick

This graphic novel is wonderful! I love the contrast between the soft watercolor style of the artwork and the story. The book has great storytelling and had me on my toes with how gruesome and suspenseful it was. This book was great it imminently made me wanted to read the next book. Highly recommend. #graphicnovel #BeneathTheTrees
