Review: Long Shadows
Jun. 12th, 2011 10:46 amWell, yesterday was NOT a good day. My old computer that's been limping long, up and died. I'm going to bring it in today to see if I can get it fixed/get the data off it, but basically I need a new one. I've called Dell and spoken to someone about a new one -- it sounds sweet and should be (almost) affordable.
However, while I spent the day at home reading, because I couldn't do ANYTHING else, including the work I'd stayed home to do, I did read "Batman: Long Shadows". Best graphic novel EVER -- right up there with my personal favorite "A Death in the Family". And one I'm sure I will frequently re-read, like "A Death in the Family". In short, this is what "Final Crisis" should have been, what I wanted from "Final Crisis" -- and didn't get. Rest is below a cut, 'cause it will be spoilery.
