Gotham Noir

A one shot from years ago from Eb Brubaker and Sean Phillips before they got famous doing sleeper, criminal and incognito.

I thoroughly enjoyed it. Done in the vein of marvels Noir comics right now.

I'll post more details later, but did anyone else read this?

I spent a long as tiome trying to find it online, in comics shops, even at the con and could never find a fucking copy till Wally said he had one and gave it to me. Freaking ridiculous.

Never even heard of it.

This seems to be the general consensus. Hrm.

Damn, now I'm gonna have to go and look for it.
Though, when I think about it, I probably have it on a disc somewhere. I need to keep track of what I've downloaded.

Don't. It will drive you mad. Although, with my luck, your local store will have 3 copies.

I highly doubt it.
One day, I should take a picture of my store and post it here.

One day as in tomorrow?

No. I was there today and I don't have any books coming next week so I won't go there for the next 2 weeks.

One day = two weeks from now.

That again, makes no sense!

The one day, when he will post a picture of the shop, will come in two weeks from now. Do I have to explain everything?

I'm glad you liked it. I remember reading it and forgetting about it. It didn't suck exactly but to me there wasn't anything great about it.

Either way, seem to me to be a beginning of an era at least, which is a little cool.

I demand you stop discussing as it makes me craving for it more and more.

wolf_2099 · Post by **wolf_2099** » Sun Feb 22, 2009 1:56 pm

So, I re-read it again, and it was wonderful.
Have you read it yet?

XIII · Post by **XIII** » Mon Feb 23, 2009 1:58 am

No. I have to look for a torrent carrying it.
This board is making me late on everything. It takes up all my leisure time! I haven't even touched any of the comics I brought back from NY!

I am waiting for the runs to be complete!
I am working on she hulk though.

My next book is going to be Scalped. Now that I have the complete run, I'm gonna read it all. I have been holding up since issue 17.
I also have those 24/7 anthologies that seem pretty good.

Scalped is great, although, unfortuantly, it looses something read issue by issue.

She-Hulk was excellent. Punisher runs have shown up.
